Thanks all. I'm sorry I didn't get the last few weeks detailed before the end date. Seems too late now.

I'm still curious if Singapore would have held without the Soviets being activated. I think eventually Lowpe would have thrown everything at me and the Allies don't have a lot of cushion in the beginning for extended campaigns, as we all know.

Anyway. I'll hope to break down some important things I learned early I this at some point. It was great to try out ideas on the Allied side having played the Japanese a lot.

It would be interesting to see a rematch but two games, each one playing each side against the other.

Really, a wonderful game and a great example of how to use Allied assets that most players neglect...

I have never read an enemy AAR, and won't start here, just want to chime in here at the end!

Well done![&o]

And the final map of Japan. notice in the info box that strategic bombing actually provided most of the final push to a conclusion.

Well done! And I think you may have set a record for the ratio of Army loss points.

Interesting. I am too curious and have to dip into yours if that's okay. Some things in the early days I really want to figure out especially.
