Garcia Game Report (05-05-04) Pablo Garcia

This is the first AWAW game played by Pablo, while Luis has a large playtesting experience on the system. The game started in September of 2003 and is being played (from Santiago and Buenos Aires) by email using Warplanner 2. Currently both players are involved in other PBEM games. What follows is an Axis/Japan view of the war, up to the summer of 1942. The focus is on military developments, while research and diplomatic details are highlighted only when necessary.

The Euroaxis general strategy has focused on naval research and sub/raider warfare (borrowing heavily from the recent ULTRA article on sub warfare), while large amounts of DP s were poured into USAT and RGT. The Empire of the Rising Sun follows a rather "learning by erring" plan, only belatedly seeing the pointers on the yahoo-list (highly recommended). The experienced Allied player has graciously allowed the correction of many blunders stemming from the yet-incomplete grasp of the rules by the Axis player, and has displayed a cold-blooded determination to fight the Axis in the proper occasions early in the war.
