Not much hope of a recovery at this point, but I’ll continue playing a bit longer.

I actually like the “japan retreat to z6”, but I wouldn’t repeat the attack on the US unless Germany was going for Sea Lion.

Still not sure if a Hawaii > Aussie attack has any merit.

Given the problems I’m having playing from my work PC and the state of the game, I’ll fold my tent on this one.

Sorry it was such a bummer match, I don’t think I challenged you at all in this one.

You’re play has improved a lot since we started last year!

@captain:

Oh it wasn’t a bummer match…it was a challenge for the US and it would have been a few more rounds before they would be able to retake Hawaii.
Let’s start another one when you have time!

OK, I’m game for a rematch.  I have to sort out my PC issues and then I"ll let you know.
