@Argothair I don’t think you’re doing too bad honestly. You’ve still got 3 island-based NOs you could get, start robbing the Russians of the Siberian territories, and eventually maybe take down a capitol. PTV is definitely more about the longer-run economic war than most variants. It’s very hard to just to take capitols without completely abandoning the rest of the map.

@Ragnell804

I kept in mind the possibility of Japan getting heavy bombers, but I don’t think it will be that devastating. Moscow is way too strong and in none of my playtesting scenarios I was able to take it. I could bomb Russia to death but with the Germans confined to Berlin, the Allies greatly outproduce the Japanese.

The only thing I thought would keep me in the game is if the Germans got lucky and destroyed almost all of your tanks, then I get heavy bombers as Japan. In that case, it will be very difficult for you to hold Moscow without the help of those tanks.

@mikawagunichi thanks. Yeah, no scramble.

I’ll try to keep that in mind.
