MrRoboto (Axis+6) vs Shin-Ji (Allies) BM3

@MrRoboto:

Hm. An Excellent France, but a disastrous 111. Everything else basically average. I guess it’s something we both can live with, right?

Oh yea, it’s a pretty reasonable start all told.  Looking forward to see how this develops!  We’ve got a Germany with a very strong navy but a crippled airforce.
