@AndrewAAGamer So this is a strange game for me. The Allies haven’t really pressed the Japanese any until T8, but have built up naval forces steadily for a single push.
Normally the Japanese fleet would be more lethal and that kind of Allied strategy would lose, but I have had to dump a lot of resources into a land war in Asia…sounds like a movie line.

The German war is an expected problem. The Russians are holed up in Moscow, and I would be starving them except for the Communism NO. That’s a unique twist to OOB. But expected.

Based on your bid going to defend China and Russia, I was looking back to see what else was an option.

The Med? But Taranto raid really doesn’t allow the Italians to grow easily. I could have left S. France to the Germans to help with a build up. But then the T2 Brit naval buy put any thought of growth there to bed.

that leaves Sealion, but with reinforced Russia I don’t see how that works.

So I’m back to where I ended up. A slog fight in the East. I"m making some progress to getting monetary parity, but unless you lose a battle badly, I don’t see how I’ll make it.
I didn’t really expect to win, and my position is not hopeless, but everything is just a wall and the Axis presses are going to be easily countered.

AndrewAAGamer

I would say this is an accurate description. With a $60 Bid the game should be tough for the Axis.

@AndrewAAGamer RE: in-game analysis. What would you suggest different?

Actually, I think you are playing quite well. One thing I am seeing with the new “Yunnan Stack” strategy is that life is tough for the Axis. I think the game may favor the Allies slightly with a $60 Bid. Dice, or mistakes, will make the difference.
