It`s ok.

[Amon-Sul]

Russians can not take any of the 6 Japanese victory cities.

The Axis have won.

good game :)

F*ck. Didn’t see that. The Axis were totally losing by far and Japan virtually defeated. To have it win shows some pretty broken victory conditions. Maybe it should require holding the VCs for two turns? Allies can’t win by victory cities.

But good win by the rules. I’ll post the result.

@simon33:

I think I’m with you on this.  Or 6 is too few.  4 of them are automatic

[gamerman01]

In 6 rounds?  This must be a very strange game.  I’ll have to take a closer look here

[simon33]

In fact, one even simpler change is to abolish the rule that the axis can win on either map. Just 14 victory cities. In this particular game they were only holding 4 in Europe.

[gamerman01]

Too hard for the Axis to win then.  Other changes would be needed too

[gamerman01]

Wow, this is quite the coup by Amon
Not spending too much time on it here, but I see ANZAC was hyper-aggressive, unloading all those men to the islands and all 3 planes flying away from Australia.  Great move to take Hawaii… there’s probably more brilliance here but I’m not going to take the time to look at every move  :-)

Good job, Amon, it is incredible that you had 5 cities after J4 and 6 after J6

I am sure Simon will never let this happen to him again

@Gamerman01:

Still easier to get a technical victory than for the Allies.
