I was wondering if you’d make the theoretically negative expected value on Yunnan with China. I probably would have too. It actually turned positive in actual value after the Brit’s attack is considered and more importantly, delayed the fall of India.

Just a reminder that it’s your turn.

@Giallo:

Before I continue, I moved my us fleet out sz  and now I want to move them back, it won’t allow me why?

Because land/sea units moved on combat move can’t move on NCM. That’s the point of the move - if you left your units in SZ6, I’d get to Kamikaze them. If you moved them out, I’d be able to re-occupy SZ6. If you didn’t know that, do you want to do the move again?

One on each destroyer and Cruiser.

The two remaining on the CV with the ANZAC fighters on it. Triple-A doesn’t allow selecting that one particularly it seems but we can edit it later if it stuffs up.

BTW, can you post your buys with the defender decision questions? You can use the manual post button to do that.
