L24 BM4 Playoff Semi-Final Adam514 (Axis) vs Gamerman01 (Allies+22)

@MuddSlinger Yes.

@mikawagunichi No problem about editing.

This is an interesting game. I was unsure about the London operation, as it took a lot of investment for Germany and whether I could hold it was questionable. I also knew the Soviets would become much stronger and it would give them time to set up a good army and a defence.

Fortunately, Japan managed to do some good things in the Pacific and put pressure on Americans, helping the Germans consolidate. I think Axis are now in a better position than they were 2 rounds ago.

RE US ftr placement: if I took the old map, feel free to edit the placement .
