triplea_42068_Jap10.tsvg

Scramble.

Best defense OOL for at least rounds 1 and 2.

If the dice is fair dice (close to Low Luck) for both sides, than continue to stick with OOL through round 2 at least. Towards the end, if it Japan looks like Japan is doing pretty well, and doens’t have to take a lot of plane hits to keep 2 tipped carriers than select for that. Of course I’ll trust and accept your judgement on this.

Desired End State is that Japan has a semblanc of a Navy left. I know ANZAC has a shot at the end, but that’s close to 50/50.

Scramble, best defense OOL.

@stroutqb22:

did I ever get my 4 free infantry in france?

France Round 2.

Also, FYI, rule book says it’s 12 IPCs worth of units on Paris. So technically, France could get 2 tanks or a bomber…ect.

Do you want an edit or re-do a move or something since you forgot about liberating Paris on round 2?

Bump. I don’t surrender yet! Germany is still securing territory.

Bump.

Hey if you come back even after 3 bumps, I’m ok with playing this out. I give myself only like 10-15% chance of winning the game.

Bump.
