I know I will respond to the Yunnan gambit better this game than my first time a year ago, in no small part because that game we were just having fun trying out a radically different looking map. That game is still on-going.

Yes, I’ve taken a look at that game. That one is just pure chaos for 20 turns straight lol

Ah so it’s called the Yunnan gambit? I really like that move, it’s just free income from the burma road without really having to do anything for it. It also serves as a speed bump for Japanese expansion. A least hopefully. I’m interested to see what you are going to do.

I need to play a bit slower, these days. It is the last week in my current job, and lots of cleaning up to be done. And first day in the new job, on Monday. Weekend should be fine. But I think the overall speed is OK. Nice game by the way! :-) I always get in trouble when I take Normandy with Germany. And I should revisit how to get more bonus points with the Axis and how to prevent the Allies from getting them too easily at least.
