14 –>15L G40 JWW (Allies +16) vs JuanSpain (Axis)

[JuanSpain]

And a single infantry moved from Pearl to San Francisco when retiring the transports, would have also avoided my move (as would break the blockage option for Tokyo)

[JuanSpain]

45 units attacking vs 34/35 defending (depending on my queensland mech defense), that will be the final battle splitted through various Australian territories.

[JuanSpain]

45 vs 38/39 (considering the next turn production…), it will be tight.

sorry for the delay…work & home have been crazy

[666]

OK going to take a shot at this…sorry for the delay Juan

this map is great….crazy, great game Juan, I look at this and smile. Love this game……this one needs some serious thought. Maybe I am daft but I think I have options here.

you have a lot of options Jim.  they all revolve around how you would like the map to look at the end of the game, which will be J17.  That is, unless the dice gods give you a huge blessing or JuanSpain has a stroke.  :|

taking midway was a good move….

just ran a sim and my aussie forces held…Really, LOL…and to think I thought long and hard about buying 4 inf for the west coast of the usa.

@JWW:

he didn’t need midway - he could have just as easily bought three destroyers for 19.

[boldfresh]

oh no i take that back.  you could have sat your fleet in 7 and built a naval base in midway.

Thanks JWW, this year I play slowly, and so, thinking about details. This move is risky because if I fail it, I am loosing any other option to win, but this time I decided trying a knock out or nothing… It has been indeed a great game by yourself too, still options for both, winner to be decided soon.
