[@Kriegsdude]

@@deltoroperdedor3166 Well that is true however, he declared in 38 and the US only has 38 mils to do anything and a portion of those went to aircraft so, he could have tried but he would have had under equiped troops. Also were would he actually get the XP for it, the amount of invasions he did in the viedo were a lot but those were the only offensives he did since the soviets capitulated in 41.

[@justinspeaks.1652]

So just to reiterate. The US Navy got clapped so hard in the Pacific (despite Japan not being ready at all) that it just hid behind the British in the Mediterranean all game. The Japanese Navy then followed the US Navy all the way to the Mediterranean just to clap them one last time. Whew.
