@StuckTojo:

I’m afraid this one was over before it even started.

Not sure what you can do as the UK when you’re surrounded by subs, have no destroyers, and can’t build any boats because they’ll get destroyed.

I like the myriad of subs, but it’s not a free ride.

I think you are getting scared of the subs for no reason here. The Germans have bought zero ground units, so it will be a very slow march to Russia. The Japanese haven’t done anything yet.

The US will enter the war in two turns at most.

The allies are still very much in this.

If you want to take some time off, fine but you can’t throw the towel that easily with the Allies. You still have a huge TUV advantage and a big income advantage.

Income advantage:

Allies have 166 IPCs on hand, Axis only 109

TUV: The value of the units on the board is 1946 for the Allies vs. 1634. This is after Japan’s turn which is always the gloomy point for the Allies.

All the allies ships are alive and safe in the Pacific.
