BOA (Game vs Historical).
(1) I've added a 4th (3rd game) bar - Game L+xA -> Game Loss + 0.5 x Aborted.
(2) I'm trying to come up with a metric that combines game CPs sunk & aborted in order to compare to historical Western Allied BOA losses.
(3) One caveat for the Western Allied game numbers present, they include Western Allied (CW, French & US) losses for the Atlantic, Med & Pacific.
(4) Though, Atlantic losses (sunk & abort) do dominate those totals.
(5) Maybe a second caveat, x = 0.5; so I'm counting a CP abort as 1/2 a sink.

Economic & Oil Plots.
(1) Gross cumulative BPs are the total BPs generated for builds (i.e., after trade) for each major power, plotted per turn.
(2) Net cumulative BPs include the starting values of each MPs armed forces + BPs produced after trade - BP losses (units destroyed, ships damaged, saved BPs captured or lost, ships captured or lost, supply units captured or lost).
(3) Net cumulative BPs represent the economic value of a major powers armed forces in play & in production.
(4) In other words, the health of a major power's armed forces.

MacArthur had a lucky escape.

Even if you had not searched, wouldn't Japan have searched anyway?
