Do you want to use Kamikaze off the Philippines?

One ANZAC destroyer is going after the Japanese submarine there.

Admittedly, I was surprised by this as I thought that Japan needed to control the Philoippines first.

Either way, it’s not a bad thing to get some Kamikaze out of the way with ANZAC.

[MrRoboto]

3 please

[Omega1759]

Ok…

[Omega1759]

One hit, the destroyer is gone, sub lives to fight another day.

@MrRoboto:

wow, Iraq was so lucky for you.
That you even attempt that…

These are the moments I hate most. When an opponent makes a crazy attacks and then it pays off   :|

These troops were trapped, the best option was to use them for a strafe attack, which was fine because there was a decent infantry buffer to use.

As the Allies, and as you must be familiar because you seem to be a good Allied player, you have to take negative expected value battles (and create opportunities for the Axis to enter slightly advantageous battles as well) to wear the Axis down.

All that said, I’m very happy about that Iraq battle and also happy about how my navy in 92 did. I totally understand your point.
