@Argothair True true. If you hadn’t done the independent wardec I would have taken that shot, but since you did I think it’s in the Axis best interest to let the US sit out until round 3/4. 😉
The UK and ANZAC give lots of juicy targets as it is… 🤪

Wanted to attack Hawaii. Not affected by any other battles.
It’s sensitive, so I’ll wait for your confirmation or disapproval. The attack is 2 inf, 2 fig, 2 tac against 2 inf.
I couldn’t see a feasible way of defending that! If you forgot, I’ll let you add it.
Thanks! Atleast it was a killer defense.

Battle didn’t go well for me, can you check the casualties so far. I think they are reasonable. Am thinking about continuing though.

Checked now. A bit awkward after seeing the defending roll, but think I would have kept the carriers instead of tac’s. Less defending power, but more valuable units and repairable. Also, if there’s a follow-up attack, only 3 air may scramble anyway.
Tough outcome for the americans.
Also, with the VCs in the Pac, I think amphi to Kwangtung is necessary.

You know, I totally forgot about that. Let me think about that.
Result posted. I really thought I was ahead in this game but I forgot to cover Pacific victory.
I’m disappointed in this one.

I believe you’ve done that to me. Twice. It’s understandable to be disappointed.
