Forgetting that airbase is fatal.

Oh well, I hate playing allies. But I would do many things different. I’ll concede when you kill that fleet. But I’d like to try again as Allies. I have a better idea now of what I should do with them.

Don’t bother. I surrender

Posted. Yeah, I’d like a rematch. Little things that I need to not repeat. By the odds I had Moscow protected, so I think I can work on my American entry. But I’m going to play outside the league until I get the Allies figured out.

Sure.

Same place as before. My idea is if Russia can hold, then everything else should fall into place. Now I just need to see how to get the US landing to Gibraltar safely. I ran the numbers with your Italian and German waves, and I should have held, so I am thinking that can be tweaked.

Whenever I have played Germany, it made no difference to the game how well Japan was doing. I figure if Germany can break the Russian stack, it is over regardless of what Japan is doing. So step 1 is to make sure Germany doesn’t break the Russian stack. Step 2 contain Italy. Step 3 is go to Gibraltar with 2 dozen land units (or Britain). Step for is delay Japan as long as possible from going through India or China.

How I accomplish this, I’m trying to figure out.
