@Talleyrand19:

Japan is too strong, the writing is on the wall, so I’m going to have to call it here…a few things I would’ve done differently in hindsight that (I think) would’ve made this a much more interesting fight, but really was just way too aggressive on Egypt early on…but that’s why we play haha…good game man

want to flip sides and give it another go?

I accept your concede.

Yes, we can flip sides! I’ll set it up and PM you!

I think I had to be real aggressive with Japan like I was in order to put pressure on US. Other times with Japan (In a Sea Lion game), I just concentrated on India only which gave the US too much freedom. It takes too long for Japan to become the Allies’ real problem. Also, in our game Germany got some really good dice (G2) when I was setting up Sea Lion. I can’t count on that every game.

Or actually, could you please set it up (you’re Axis), please PM when its up for my Scramble decision.
