Greatly enjoyed your AAR, looking forward to updates.

Do you think Red side was too hindered by his island starting position?

No, I think the Leftist actually had a small starting advantage. At the start where one side starts on an island it begins the game with a small ocean transport capability. This allows it to quickly send small units out to capture resources and clear communication lines. Several turns into the game both sides get their full merchant marine activated and the equation changes.

In the AAR the big events leading to Leftist defeat were early loss of heavy capital ships and Kongwa turning to the Imperial side. This forced the Leftist to use a lot of troops for garrison duty and limited the ability to maneuver by sea. Difficult to overcome these handicaps.

Glad you enjoyed the AAR. Maybe I’ll do another next time I have a PBM game.
