Antholin (Axis) vs Stalingradski (Allies). WW5.

Unfortunately, I had named them the IJN Godzilla & IJN Mothra. There wasn’t much that the American Navy could do at Pearl because of their awesomeness. I know how you feel though, I have many lost many pieces due to similar plays.

@Stalingradski:

No scramble… d^%$ I’m stupid.

Apparently I need lessons in reading the battle calculator, as the UK move was a complete bust. Mmm, back to the world conquering drawing board.
