NEVER use that retarded 2 letter system.

It’s for bonehead’s who don’t know how to play Axis and Allies. (Yes that’s an open challenge to ANYONE, who’ll wager a game on using 2 letter acronymns over 3)

SUB - Submarine
TRN - Transport
DST - Destroyer
CRU - Cruiser
ACC - Aircraft Carrier
BAT - Battleship
FGT - Fighter (or FIG or FTR)
TAC - Tactical Bomber
BMB - Bomber

etc

Don’t get caught looking like a FOOL, for listening to the 2 letter baboons around here.

@Adiloi Yes, theoretically this could continue. But the Axis would gain so much income from this exchange that the Allies would not recover, and eventually attrition will stop UK from being able to retake since they won’t be able to buy new units and Germany will.

I wrote something on Sealion tactics, and as I said there, Sealion isn’t worth it. If you’re going for London on G2, then UK will have lots of men in Egypt to crush Libya left over, and that’s always a hard battle for Italy. Plus, you’ve probably been neglecting the East, so a better-prepared Russia can slam into you. Then, there’s the US, which can now strike in either London or France, so you’ve got to protect both.

Well, that changes things :-P it could still probs be done in about 2 turns, most of which could be done in the first move anyway. I’m pretty new to A&A in general, so thanks for the heads-up. Btw, I don’t think I’ve ever made moves like this, but if I have, I sure won’t anymore

I was the Allies and my Father-in-law was axis. He pulls off sealion on his 3rd turn I think. I was not seeing it as a real threat like I should have. Nice move, he held it for the entire game(9 rounds). I never took it back from him and I defeated him with only Russia and USA. He is not the greatest player but he is not that bad. I consider myself good but not great. This is a tough game for the axis to win.

He held UK all game? He took away from the Allies $20 - $30 a turn for all that time and still lost? Imagine how bad it would have been for him had the UK been in the game spending that money all along - right next door … .

Carrier based planes do they count the SZ they are in as movement # 1?

Nope, they start counting the first zone they “move” into.

Remember they are considered air borne at the beginning of the turn so they do not ride on the carrier, they just land on it later.

@JamesAleman:

@billinjackson:

Sorry not on the lingo but what are these purchases?1 CV, 1 SS, 1 AP

Thanks

cv=aircraft carrier
ss=submarine
ap=transport I believe, that is an odd one

It’s not that odd. Un-armed naval ships are generally called Auxilary ______. AP stands for Auxiliary - Personnel (or passenger), I believe.

Can’t believe, that there is a way a _(Standart-Experienced-)_UK-Players looses his Capital-City.

Must be a blind one…

Sorry. :|

We never tried sea lion, cause if the german player fails, the whole game ist over. Russia first!
