Larry’s 1942 Global setup put an even more (unimportant label) on the French. So I wanted to make some changes that balance the game, note they might not be completely historically accurate.

1 Destroyer and Transport added to British fleet by London, forgot sea zone name…

1 Infantry added to Algeria.

1 Infantry added to egypt with a mech.

A transport added to the fleet of french west africa.

1 Infantry added in syria.

1 Infantry to London.

KJF is the most common Allied strat. Japan won’t be able to amass such a huge force.

KJF, hang on in Russia until the Alluss turn the whole world against Germany.

I see Allied wins this way alot, even with Moscow falling.

Once the whole of the Allies are turned against Germany they never get the last victory city.

Imo its best to keep anzac home, they got a factory and so they can capture and contest money islands which keeps japan busy.

This leaves the US free to build combat units to attack the japanese fleet and clear a path for the anzac transports to be annoying.

You can place 3 units with anzac and have them attack the round after. Neither Japan or USA can do that. And UK-Pac is better served buying land only and assisting china and staying alive

Yeah, that’s why in games on TripleA I play against myself, I play until when one side would normally surrender, then have the AI finish it. Techinically they end with by the book victories.

But as I mentioned, usually due to the IPC gap the writing’s on the wall long before victory city objectives are achieved.

@ampdrive TY shadow.Sometimes it’s a tough bird in the cage and it’s best to keep it contained.

@AndrewAAGamer thank you, as always, I appreciate it, one group was always going to be unhappy but at least I don’t have to hear it every week now.

45 to 1:15 against a newb. They surrender by turn 3 or 4.

@AndrewAAGamer
thanks

@tmartin if the sea battle fails and the Transports weren’t hit during the combat,
at the beginning of the next Round,as the attacker, you can choose to retreat the Transports. They can retreat one SZ from which they came into the battle . There might be 2 or 3 options , depending how many routes were taken to arrive at the SZ.

The units that were going to unload would still be on the Transports , of course .
It would be up to the other side to attack them on their Turn and try and sink them .

@Galendae opps no I meant good. Sorry. Forgive my spelling.

@DallinD

Japan not attacking round 1 also has a similar strategy. You can focus on china for a turn and if you plan on a sea-lion attack with germany and the german turn went well you might want to prevent the US from doing anything for a few rounds.

With Sea-lion as a viable alternative and Japan in striking position but not yet at war anzac and the UK have to be carefull while the US has to decide how to split its money if they spend all on europe to maby counter sea-lion or liberate fast then japan can really mess around.
