JuanSpain (Axis) defeats ArtofWar1947 (Allies + 17)

[JuanSpain]

@ArtofWar1947:

Interesting strategy. Thanks for the valuable lesson.

Thanks for the game Art. It was tough winning you, and you moved very frequently.
You also thought me a lesson with your move to take Tokyo and I will have to protect that kind of situations.
It is just that it was executed a bit late, given the Axis was allready dominating globally when that happened, and the Axis has the advantage to concentrate on VC´s Victory as an option instead of world domination that I was pursuing first.
In my view, if no VC´s condition exists, bid is not that important to make the game even.
