@gamerman01 Yes, I am not a fan of ANZAC building subs/transports, unless I go KJF. Usually the damage you can do to Japan is negligible. Fighters however are a much more effective way to bring the ANZAC resources into action! And I like this path through Mexico because of several reasons. I have actually not tried the path via India before.

One more thing, by the time the game is over if you are really disappointed about the dice in it, overall, I’m open to considering a rematch.

@mikawagunichi I find the battle in SZ 20 pretty frustrating. I don’t understand thematically why neither the fighter on the carrier in SZ 7 nor the fighter on the Japanese airfield can scramble to defend the 3 transports. I would not have left them in that sea zone if I’d realized there was no scramble allowed. I suppose the rule is that there has to either be an amphibious assault or already be some kind of defender in the sea zone to allow a scramble – but I don’t understand what this is representing historically or why it’s fun.

Normally I would say the tradeoff is that the American bomber is at risk after flying such a long-distance mission, but because you neatly wiped out the transport stack, I don’t have anything that can threaten Korea.

I feel like I am learning the hard way about the fussier details of the rules on this map, and it is pretty tempting to just say I surrender and next time I will know the rules better. Like, the reason I’m playing league games is because y’all posted saying “please play league games,” not because I know PtV well enough to be competitive.

@surfer I very nearly missed the 21 attack myself. Ran through a test turn without realizing I could reach.

@pacifiersboard Use this one, moved a des from sz 6 to 36
