An interesting intercept. KB is currently transiting through the DEI. I wonder if they could possibly spare a couple of days to attempt an intercept. Once again, my lack of knowledge of whereabouts of the American carriers worries me. If I can get KB into an intercept position that appears reasonably safe my eagles will make a strike.

Little by little the trapped allied stack goes DB after DB. Soon you will be able to do a shock attack and speed up the process of destroying it. Once you have cleared them off the battle field then you can take Burma and probably most of southern India without much to face you unless he commits several major LCUs from the US.If he does that then that will help you in the other theaters.

I could do a shock attack but in this jungle terrain I fear what a bad roll would do for my forces. Experience level is steadily climbing but at the same time fatigue and disruption are big issues here. I will be satisfied to chip away at this stack and rotate in and out where I can whilst starting to put some pressure on Rangoon. Where to go from Rangoon is definitely something to ponder.
