Super complicated move, all of US/CHI/UK are connected somehow. I didn’t see a future to take Norway and hold it for one lousy round, even if this could have killed the Bomber in Finland.
I am still nervous because I don’t understand why you deployed it there. The only advantage in that position I see is that you could bring it faster to Japan to have a new can opener.

This is the first time I am actually superstitious and despite the fact that the impact is far from being decisive I kind of feel coursed of never getting my US NorthEast clean and I already predict 2 hits on Aleutian Island from the pesky Japanese Inf there :-/

Kind of funny, but I consider it sports to delay the collapse of the fragile defense of Moscow, Middle East and China as long as possible:D

Asking for submerge orders in SZ93.

Annoying IT sub and I would have loved no hit in Iceland. Now 1 TT with 2 units is invited to reclaim again. With 2 defenders it is more annoying to go with 1 TT :-/

But all those details after the recent big battles, I should get more relaxed about such stuff.

[gamerman01]

Yes you should, but hard to do when you’re playing a challenging game

Your USA dice were very good, after all

[gamerman01]

You were down to arty vs. infantry after round 1 in Iceland
Be happy you won

Assuming you allow late walkin to Tambov, as the only combat was vs. 1 sub in Z93 - thanks

[JDOW]

Yes, np!

[JDOW]

Oops, I also forgot a move. Forgot to move the US sub to sz37. I can just promise to you it was my intention before ANY dice was rolled, I simply forgot it as the move was so complicated. please let me know if you allow.

[JDOW]

Oh dear, I just realize that this could have influenced your IT naval placement in India. So my stupid mistake to miss that convoy shot, just bad! :/

[JDOW]

Man, disappointing to always miss a little detail.

In case this would have influenced your IT placement and you disallow, no problem. Could I then move to 44 which is out of range of India? There is the 3 options. 1-2 require your leniency, 3 is legal in any case.

1. My preferred scenario is US sub in 37 and Anzac sub in 44
2. If US subs influences IT placement the second best option is US in 43, Anzac in 44
3. If the US sub won’t move then could you please edit the Anzac sub to 44?

Sorry for the confusion.

[JDOW]

I can move the Anzac sub my self anyway, so only your decision about the US sub to either sz 37, or 43 or it stays at 54.

Oh dear, another double hit in Java.
Since UK another 4/4 @2. :(
