UKpac misplaced 1 inf in malaya instead of India.  I will move it on ANZAC turn

[Shin-Ji]

I don’t see the file attachment in the email.

Pretty interesting move, by the way.

[Shin-Ji]

Well, regardless of how the map looks, my Italy move is probably the same.  Buy nothing, move the two trucks from Romania to Ukraine, leave the big group in Caucasus.  So feel free to do that when you do your ANZAC/France move.

(Unless you’re in position to invade Southern Italy with a full complement of 10 ground troops and more than 4 planes.  In that case I might buy 3 Inf and place them in Southern Italy.  I suppose we could edit that in later.)

[Shin-Ji]

Oh, and now that I think about it, I’ll move the big group from Caucasus to Northwest Persia.

[Shin-Ji]

Italy 18 sent.

[Shin-Ji]

2 rounds of defense with the 2 extra planes

Rolls: 4@4; Total Hits: 34@4: (2, 1, 5, 3)

UK21 sent.

very bad dice when USA attacked Egypt possibly lost the game; UK only had 33% chance to liberate following that.  Nevertheless I will say some prayers and give it another chance.

[Shin-Ji]

Sent off Japan 22.  You might hang on (you could take Volgograd again), but the writing is on the wall.

[variance]

Allies quit in round 27.  Germany just too strong.  well played Shin ji

[Shin-Ji]

Man, you were tenacious!  I was genuinely wondering how I would finally manage the win there.  Your play was pretty much flawless from the start - good game!

[variance]

Nah that was far from flawless.  The biggest screw up was when I left that bunch of US fighters in Egypt to be slain by your bombers.  Liberating it was hard after that fiasco.  USA spending all its money on air units was a real drain without the philippines NO and that couldn’t go on forever.

[Shin-Ji]

Well, nothing compared to my complete dropping of the ball in the Pacific, anyway. :)  I really should have been more prepared for crazy dice.  That’s one thing this game has taught me - don’t let your opponent choose the battles if you don’t have to.

Anyway, you think we have time for a rematch?  Switch sides?

[variance]

sure, why not.  I’m not very good with the axis (either side really).  I will set it up and PM you the link

[variance]

what would you want for your $12?

[Shin-Ji]

Oh, missed that.  I’ll take a sub off Egypt, an Inf in NG, and an Inf in Alex.

[Shin-Ji]

Actually, scratch that.  Give me a sub in z98 and a sub in z81.
