Dedication:

Debacle: Dutch East Indies and Malaya 1941-42 is dedicated to ...
A. ... the peoples of Asia invaded and occupied by Bushido Imperial Japan, who suffered and endured so much and fought so bravely as our allies in World War 2 and who are our good friends and allies now,
B. ... our U.S. and Allied servicemembers who served and fought so hard, bravely, and intelligently,
C. ... and my children Rebecca, Robert, Rohan, and Johanna in the hope they and all our children never have to suffer and die in another world war.

The more we learn about the Second World War, the better our chances that it will be the LAST world war. (LRC)

And war should be confined - imprisoned in - history books and games.

A Request: If you do assemble and play this free game of mine, PLEASE let me know at ELCOAT@hotmail.com what you think of it and whether, after more than a couple games, you think one side or the other has an advantage. Thanks!
