Little surprised you didn't even try for the fish once under pressure, but the unit ships proved to be more than worth it. Again lots of persistence and eventually you had him outmicroed. Wubbed.
i played india vs japan a lot, and it doesnt matter how good your eco is, if you cant match his army at any point in the game you just lose. i tried fish boom several times in training games but almost always lost with it, better to pressure a bit and mass army.
