War has been declared

Christmas in July!  Emperor Hirohito thanks the Brits for building in London and not the mideast.  Dawg may not share my appreciation.  The Emperor thanks the Americans for moving their bombers out of reach of the homeland.  Guess my stack of ftrs discouraged them.  However, shipping in the Sea of Japan will continue to be sparse.  The natives of DEI tremble that the Americans may return them to colonial rule. Il Duce thanks the Brits for giving him “Mare Nostrum” back.   I enjoyed the comments by Garg and D.A.  D.A. stay in the game.

Wow, it truly is Christmas in July, for Italy.  13 P.U.  It will be like letting a kid into a candy store.  Maybe the Brit submariners need shore leave.

I love how dawg doesn’t give a damn  about our petty squabbles .

You know I have to say this and I’m only going to say this once.

Japan is not the only axis nation with a peace treaty in place with Russia.

Russia and Italy have also successfully negotiated to maintain a lasting and official peace agreement over  all 12 game rounds of warfare.

Yet like the modern media, I see a lot of talk about sideshows instead of stark realities!  Everyone giving Russia And Japan a hard time but Italy gets a free pass?? It’s like a Clinton conspiracy!

That’s a good one Garg.  So Dawg voluntarily gave up the Italian can opener so that Russia wouldn’t invade _ ?  Does that mean that your mech in Cauc is not going to take Italian Somaliland for the N.O.?

Thanks for the kind words D.A.  Japan was blessed with good dice in the beginning against China.  Sometimes one has to make your own luck.  I aggressively challenged China, baiting UKP to intervene.  I’ve seen many forum strategy posts about the benefits of Japan DOW on allies on T1.  But I prefer to completely conquer China first.  I had no idea what to do after taking India.  The German war in the east wasn’t going anywhere so I needed to do something fast.  S.A. quickly built and rushed in air power to Aust. and has continued to concentrate on me, thus reducing the pressure of a two front war on Ger.  Even tho I took India, I’ve had to expend sizable resources every turn defending it.  So the U.S. has equaled and exceeded my initial air and naval superiority.

Lol, I even anticipated him wanting it and flipped the Allied neutral territory.  Surprised Gargantua hasn’t wanted to move on it earlier.

The air campaign in the Pacific that initially saved Hawaii and Australia was Garg’s idea.

ANY IDEAS. I HIT TWICE THE FIRST TIME I ROLLED SO IT WOULD BE GONE THE DESTROYER DID NOT HIT.
oops caps locked on

Keep the current game open or save it, and open the France 12 game turn again in a different Triplea launcher window and then just make the combat moves and combat for sz91 including the French ftr.  That way, the marti’s for the French ftr will be displayed for all of us.  Then you can close that window and edit the result.  If you closed and didn’t save the original game, then recreate the purchase and movements and edit the battle results and make your NCM.  Go with the 1st set of dice for your bombers and the Brit DD.
