@simon33 I am sorry to bring bad news, MARTI was brutal to Indians in first round. I was counting on losing 4-5 planes so I can keep 4 land units and defend India, but it went much better.

@simon33 Yes, that was a mistake. Otherwise, Japan would have hard time in China. You would probably take not only Manchuria, you could take Hong Kong as well, Chinese are very strong, I did not have power to fight them and take on all other at the same time.

Long-term, Germans might win this, but it would be difficult if you press Japan and with Manchuria and Hong Kong falling, and strong US navy, it would be difficult to take all these back.

It was a fun game anyway :)
We can play a rematch when you want.

@simon33 Do you want to turn around, you take Axis with +8?
