Sorry Farmboy, I didn’t realize that you wanted to play with tech. I’ve never have played this way before, and I agree with JDOW that would increase the luck factor.

@JDOW:

framboy, you face the Japanese Carrier und European turtle strategy, invented by Juan, sophisticated by Rubi. It has yet to be proven how to beat it in BM3 :)

Good luck^^

Thanks JDOW,

But I still make a lot of mistakes, like the one losing 3 Tt with Japan :oops:

@farmboy:

Another question. Italy declared war on China and the USSR. I thought maybe that would mean I could move Soviet units into China on my noncombat but it didn’t let me. I assume that is not a glitch but simply a requirement that the Soviets declare war on Japan in order to move into China.

And sorry about the transports. :)

No worries about Tt.

Scramble SZ 33?

forgot moving the marine to Iwo. Have edited
