To observers following on the bomber thread:
This concludes turn 5, I can now say with certainty that the axis will have 8 cities turn 8 and the game will end turn 9.

How can you say that so far in advance? Don’t you need Cairo and Stalingrad? Are you going Sealion? London be tough with the allied fleet there. Stalingrad may be a tough battle, but then again if its in danger he can just retreat the Russian stack to Cairo. How do you get to 8 VCs in three turns?
It looks as though Russia messed up early by stacking the Ukraine. You cannot hold the Ukraine, so stacking in Belarus and Western Ukraine is better early, with a fallback to Bryansk. Then at least the bulk of your army is in Moscow. You cannot hold Leningrad- you should retreat from there to preserve your army for later. Russia also did not go for Iraq… why not? This is not representative of strong Russian play.
Japan does not look very strong, not having any of the money islands, but I suppose you are just trying to win in Europe?

James, you picked a guy for the test game who likes to darken the skies himself.
6 in Morocco and 6 in EUS, eh?
Does this even count as a test game?
J/K - it still counts because you are demonstrating what it’s like when Germany has all these bombers.Now the $1,000 question is, can you get 8 cities and hold 8 throughout a round of play? It would be a no-doubter except that Japan was so weak and even UK Pacific is raking in the cash.
If you had strength on the Pacific board like Allweneed did against me, there would be no doubt. But as it is, I have faith that Allweneed can at least snipe a city here or there to keep you from holding 8 for a full round, and with the Pacific board in shambles, you may not even have the economic edge, so as long as Allweneed can stave off the Europe victory, I think he takes the game. But I haven’t watched all the moves between round 4 and 6…
Really just trying to say that your bomber strat has a lot more teeth if you play Pacific better.
British with 52 (and UK Pac with 28), USA with 83, and fleet in 110, appears at a glance the Allies are in it.
Also at a glance, it appears the German stack in Tambov can only advance with Italy’s help. ANZ might be able to stop the German advance, although the plan to get to Egypt with Japan is obvious. But with 12 American bombers coming, will the landing party just get blasted?
I guess Allweneed is fighting fire with fire.Lastly, I would say that obviously James has skills, or he wouldn’t have made it this far. I don’t care what your gimmicky strat is, if you don’t have some serious skills you won’t be hanging with a guy who’s currently on top of the standings over about 50 players.

The reason Japan looks so weak is because I was demonstrating a bomber build with both nations. I am still refining Japan, You don’t have to go bombers with Japan. If I don’t, it is easier to pressure both sides, agreed. Wait until turn 8, then check back with me. Thank you for your assessment of my skills. I like to think I can hold my own ;)
Remember, Italy could have taken Russia on turn 4! (Not the best result since I prefer Germany to have it. But how often do you see Italy with this option in your games? He also fought tooth and nail to prevent my access to the factories early, that is why I am in Moscow before the factories. I am saying either way, the Europe board is quite secure.
-
Also, my original concept called for a Japan turn 1 naval base and a landing in Egypt turn 4 with this strategy, but it was deemed unwise to sacrifice Japan needlessly.
