There is probably an equation that equates the rate of Japanese advance/aggression to the probability of a long game. Although that might be a bit unfair.....

Looks like you enjoyed the challenge of a hyper aggressive Japan though

Hi, Tomasz! Thank you, this was a beautiful expierence! Well, I was not quite adequate to this greate challenge and, probably, surrender too early and too easy. But I believe, you have enjoyed this campaign at least, at least half as me.
2 cents to your AAR:
1. We had no HR about paying political points and I didn't pay for all this troops in China. Our rules were:
a) 10 k for 4-E
b) one para unit - one drop
c) no resizing airgroops, except carriers ones
2. Hiyo is not sunk, it was acting near Bombay during my last turn, you have seen Judys from its deck. I lost not many warships and even the strike that prevent me to surrender didn't cost any ship for me, except single destroyer. I was depressed becouse after many years playing this game I do not understand some important things: the TF with such aggressive leader as Tanaka, absolute threat tolerance order, all kinds of ammo except shells to dual-purpoise guns could to retreat before a single motor-boat just becouse this lack of 12 cm shells.
3. BTW, my troubles in India began from another misunderstanding of game mechanism. That 3 ID at the rear of Narbada-line were not a desperate offension without any flanks covering. Just part of my troops, ordered to move from Bombay to Calcutta in strategic mode, made it in strange march-route, crossing your rear positions(and I even cannot understood their way: any railroad to that hex, there they were encircled cross a station under your control).
4. I saw, you are looking for opponent. If I could recommend something, my advice: play with Pentakomo, he wrote a message in your topic. You thought, you're aggressive? You thought, I am agressive? Play with him for understood the very nature of aggressivenesshttp://www.matrixgames.com/forums/micons/m16.gif:)
Congratulations with your victory and good luck in any your affairs
