Got another game in. Axis won on during turn 5. Moscow actually held on with some great dice but still lost Stalingrad and Rostov to help seal the deal. Germany influenced Turkey turn 1 and went after Cairo and got it early in game. In the mean time Japan took Calcutta turn 2 based on all of the India fleet went to the Red Sea. And while Germany took there points back without Moscow and Japan shows in pic they can get back 2 Asian cities, HK and Singapore to complete the win.

This pic shows us what happens if Calcutta falls in game and becomes a state of vichy like France.
The New capital goes to Bombay territory which Fec had already built a IC so at least they could build on following turn. Plus UK fleet did leave Red Sea and landed some help in the future turns but Japan was able to hold on with transporting by air and some ground from Assam where they cut off any hump supplies.
FEC keeps all ships and then Japan rolls for the territories in India and the 2 islands South. Japan rolls and gets 3 territories and joins there side but did not get the other 3 territories and including the ground. The ground would of flipped to Japans side.
That is a sweet rule to have in your game if you can get it to work.
So long story short I think axis had 36 points and to much for allies to take back. Axis wins with 30 points.
Great Game. Meet a new player and will be back. Thanks for coming again Kris !
