40 IPC’s. I do it every time I play Japan. I take the PI and all the DEI, Malaya, Borneo & Hong Kong. These = 21 IPC which puts Japan @ 40 IPC’s. If all goes well I do not lose too much units due to Japans 1st round attack advantage. (All Allied units, except the Chinese, defend at 1 on the dice) Tonight I won by VP’s, holding over 40 (I topped out @ 45) for 6 rounds. USA had sunk Japans navy on T5 after I slammed into AUS capital after building up INF & ART for a couple rounds and lost that battle. I pretty much had expanded all my forward units and had started reinforcing the India campaign. By the time the USA started to xport land units it was too late. It was great game w/ a few navel battles that cost both sides alot of hardware! Great fun! My boys are grumbling by being beat by the “ol Man” again.  :-D

It would definitely unbalance the game to limit builds to the IPC value of the territory.  The Allies have a hard enough time as it is preventing Japan from winning the game (especially to a 22 VP target).  If you handicap them further by not allowing the US to build more than 2 units per turn in Hawaii, the game is lost for the Allies.

Hello there!

I’m sure Japan alomost always wins when going for 22 VP’s.

I wonder myself what to do with allies to avoid that very same ending.

It sounds very interesting to me what u said about Subs and substall.

Could u explain?

I suppose u mean US subs should try to substall Japan fleet/s while conquering

and island to go bombing Japan.

Is it?

Thanks for u’r attention,

I hope for a kind answering

Best whishes, Stefanilli ; )

alright, i might try it next time i play as the allies
