@Amon-Sul Yeah, I haven’t seen this kind of early pressure on Japan before. Its a challenge. And I think I was already a little sloppy on my J2 despite spending a lot of time thinking about it. But of course the danger of this approach is what happens in Europe.

@Amon-Sul that is fine, and no problem about 93 too.

@JDOW I’m glad it was a tough turn. I knew that it was unlikely that you would go for it, but I still have trouble giving opponents almost 80% odds. My sense though was that I didn’t have to win there for it to still work out for me, just needed to avoid a disastrous dicing.

And my other option was Marianas. I was just about to start the combat round on a turn where I had gone there, when I decided to do Sumatra. If I was doing well in Europe, I would have gone for the safe move, but I felt I needed something more decisive in the pacific to still have a chance in this game.

@axis-dominion lol yes. Whatever else happens in this game, at least I have kept Italy from becoming a 70 IPC monster. Even if I lose, I will treat that as a personal accomplishment.

@Amon-Sul no problem!

Smolensk was painful.

And I’m very curious how much I will pay for my moves in the Pacific.
