@Sovietishcat:

I was really really surprised that you DOW with Japan - You had very goods odd for a sea lion!

But if you send everything to E.Poland, you still have good odds, hopefully I’ll get some AA hit  :-)

The best Sea Lion games are when Japan doesn’t have to wait to go to war. I think what made me think about letting Japan go to war was that the raid on the air base didn’t get 3 damage which means having to account for a potential scramble. I assumed you wouldn’t pay it off as more troops on London take priority. Also, I was just thinking that the 1 US bomber in E. US would come to London and I could accept the risk of the extra hit point.

You got 1 AAA hit and the cruiser in the Baltic also got a hit. So 2 German planes down!

The best Sea Lion games are when Japan doesn’t have to wait to go to war. I think what made me think about letting Japan go to war was that the raid on the air base didn’t get 3 damage which means having to account for a potential scramble during Sea Lion.

You could have bomb the airbase with the Italian bomber too? Would not have been able to repair with uk! But obviously would have to send planes to secure the landing + 5 bombers in UK, made the sealion oddly tough if the airbase is safe.

Well since it was only a dollar to fix the airbase, I said I could repair it since that dollar would not add more ground troops to uk because I had 12$ in damages anyway. But now those 8 tanks in Russia have a free high way! Will see how it goes.

Did you consider just retreating as Russia, or those German artillery had to die no matter what?

Those Russian tanks and mechs defending with at least 2 if not 3 turns of purchases might have given Russia more strength in later rounds. Now all that’s on the board are basic units.

I’m curious which round Moscow falls (if it does of course) and whether or not defending would have worked out better for Russia.
