Congratulations to have finished this game. What is the precise date ?

I think Zeta did a great job in every aspect of the war as he has comparable losses in all 3 counters (air, ground and sea) after two years of war under Corsair rule and so on. Also this game was played with the huge original heavy bomber replacements, so Allied players will have more difficulties now in v1.6+.

I hope we will see the Allied side (especially aces). I would also like to see the ecenomic situation of Japan at the time of surrender... how many factories remaining and so on.

Look at that, only 250 Corsairs lost to A-A combat [X(] and the 16th plane type in overall losses.

That`s a wonderweapon, and not those toys that Adolf wanted [:'(]

the allies have NEGATIVE base points (at least according to the overview, it says something like -27000)?[&:]

The end date was something like 06 28 45... I spent my air, and thensome to gain territory
I was able to suffer Z's great ability to counter punch, and he did a masterfull job.
The Allais at this point counl destroy the remaining army in Tokyo, osaka, and over run either the norther or Southern end of the Main Islands fairly easily... not much industry left exceipt for one base I missed with a large resource ... so 2.3 or higher would be possible, but what is the point? I think if I had the 1500 hours I spent on this game over to play, which I do not think I ever will, I would play a similar game of pushing hard with the long range air assets in 43, and march /jump up the NG coast with air cover... invading PI and China Coast to eastablish good b29 bases.. The biggest problem by late 43, unless the allies have really screwed up, is to contain them in all areas... If you are strong in one front you risk those land forces being bombed to reduced capacity and bypassed.. Singapore is a death trap, and there is no really sound reason for the Allies to take Guam Saipan etc. I sacrificed many many planes to push Z back, confident I could replace losses and he would have difficulty as the war grew longer, and remember way back the cries after my Bombers would obliterate his forward bases? Thanks again, and feel free to ask any ?'s... I tried to get them all...
