[Gauss_Death]

I accidentally hit “done” on my non-combat turn before I was done moving my non-combat units. I used edit mode to correct it.

[Gauss_Death]

Hmmm, looking at Russia again, I think I shouldve left my troops in Bryansk after all. LOL, oh well. :)

[oysteilo]

No worries.  I am not waving the white flag yet. But I don’t like the situation.  Lets play at least to Germany 7. Moscow will fall at G8 or G9. But Cairo is solid and will probably stay alive. Too much ipc in the med.  Should have been used against Russia.  In any case I will be slow moving over the next 24 h, but will try to have Japan done in the morning.

How do you judge the situation?

Russia falls in 2 turns unless I relocate all my aircraft from Cairo to Russia. If I relocate all my aircraft Cairo falls.
Either way, you have the Europe map firmly under control. I cannot stop you from bleeding the USSR even if Russia holds.
The US cannot build a strong enough force to invade before you win Europe.

The US cannot build a strong enough force to invade Japan before you win Europe although Japan will lose all of it’s territories.
In short, the Europe map wins you the game in about 5 turns provided you don’t attack my Pacific fleet.

I spent too many troops trying to delay your advance. I sent too many infantry east to try to delay the japanese from marching west. If I had either (or both) of those I would be able to win Pacific before you win Europe.

Scramble/Kamikaze vs Korea landing?

[Gauss_Death]

I oopsed, I was only supposed to take 7 fighters, I have edited it. So Korea has 7 fighters, sz6 has 7fighters (in addition to the ships).

[oysteilo]

@Gauss_Death:

Scramble/Kamikaze vs Korea landing?

I am currently traveling, so can’t look at the file. However, if you attack Korea with 1 inf from a transport I would like to use all kamikaze on that transport! No scramble.

[oysteilo]

No wait! You have an armor too?

[oysteilo]

If you attack with 1 inf and 1 armor from soviet far East, please use all kamikaze,  but only 1 at each carrier. That means 6 kamikaze against 6 carriers. That is final!

[Gauss_Death]

Korea: 7 fighters, 1 Armor (blitz), 1 infantry (via transport).
sz6: 7 fighters, 7 Carriers, 3 Cruisers, 1 Battleship, 1 Transport (2 transports left)

Your response is: No scramble but kamikaze 6 carriers?

[oysteilo]

Yes  :-D
