Full scramble of 3 UK Ftrs.

Forgot to edit the troops to get off the TT in the Red Sea. I’ll do that in the USSR turn if I remember.

Unloaded them into T-J.

You have achieved economic victory. It’s only a matter of time before the Axis crush the allies, and that’s if you don’t take Sydney soon, which I think you will.

I think I gave up Hawaii too easily, although checking the history I would have had to have done something radically different there. Also, 2CVs in the Atlantic US1 was too much. I’ve never done that before that I can recall. Stripping two planes from the Pacific allowed that fleet to be sunk J3. I guess it was still behind but at least I would have done somewhat more damage.

I don’t know, my Allied strategy has some success against other players. Perhaps I changed it too much to compensate for the German CV turn 1. Perhaps I should have done something completely different with that buy. As it happened I chickened out before reaching Norway anyway.

Good win. We both knew the result from the start but I wanted to see how I would go. I actually thought it would be over with more quickly about turn 3 but at least I defended Moscow and the Mid East for a while, with Calcutta too. So in that sense I feel I did at least give you some competition.

Good game! I wouldn’t have gone for Sidney though, with 40+ income advantage I had time on my side. No need to risk anything.

Your major mistakes, chronologically, were:

1. Doing Taranto and retreating to Iceland with your fleet. You had the perfect situation to ignore Taranto and do a 91 stack with the remaining fleet from 110, since Germany built navy G1. That would have killed Italy’s navy by UK3. Instead, you went to Iceland with 111 and got crushed.

2. Going to sz 7 with the US navy (near Japan). This is a waste of a move since I can’t see it achieving anything against a competent player. It puts you out of position if Japan puts a slight effort into keeping ships in 6, and if Japan does what I did here (build to deadzone Midway), you either take the 99% Midway battle or you put yourself even more out of position by fleeing North.

3. Putting your 20 Russian units in Amur when it was clear that I wasn’t going to JDOW since the German fleet would have been destroyed by the US fleet. You just gave Japan something to do while waiting for J3DOW.

You weren’t going to get Norway unless you threw Japan the Pacific victory. 2 US CVs with 7 air was also overkill, and didn’t achieve anything worth that investment.

Calcutta wasn’t going to fall quickly with the combined effects of J3DOW, Amur stack crush and US fleet crush with Hawaii grab. That’s why I was making inf instead of mechs on the mainland, Calcutta would have held for another 6 rounds. Moscow was also never my target since Russia wasn’t making much income thanks to the SFE being in Japan’s hands. The German plan was simply to get the money and wait it out.

[simon33]

The theory behind SZ7 is you prevent a blocker from being put down to get to SZ6. Also, the SZ10 fleet can reach it while that fleet can’t reach SZ16. In the right situation, it works. Looking at some current games I have going, looks like the one with variance with a J1 DOW it has worked out to have a US IC on Korea US3. Without a J1 or J2 DOW it’s unlikely to achieve much and you’ll just have to retreat to Midway.

I don’t think I even considered consolidating at SZ91. The damaged BB from SZ111 wouldn’t have made it. Are you saying to just use that as a blocker? And build an airbase on Gibraltar?

I was assuming a J2 DOW so SZ123 would have been a dead zone in that scenario for the fleets. Probably a reason not to do the J2 DOW.

[Adam514]

You put a slight amount of pressure on sz 6, but you lose all the pressure on the DEI which are way more important.

Yes use the damaged BB as bait for German units. Build and Airbase in Gib yes, though you didn’t need one if 110 survives.
