If I let you re-do Japan, will you be willing to re-play from the Egypt attack on Round 2?

Against someone that knows how to play the axis (as you clearly do), I don’t believe that the allies have much of a chance unless the Axis makes a few mistakes.

Plus submarines don’t block.

What if we #1 – continue as is and see if you can actually still win despite having your navy crushed.
#2, then re-do to see what would have happened with a different Japan 13
#3, go back to Egypt Round 2, with the expected outcome that Egypt would be taken with one english tank (or roll it out as long as there is a reasonable result)

the failed attack on Egypt round 2 resulted in building up to force out the italians for 8 rounds before they were finally booted out of africa.

That’s time that should have gone towards either trying to support india or the russian front.
