Ksmckay (Axis) vs Amon-Sul (Allies +17) BM3

Landings in Normandy/Hol on UK3/4. It only takes a few units to dissuade this I think. If you go max defense with Russia, and germany loses no units G1 and goes all ground, I think its 85-90%. So takeaway a few units, add a UK plane or two, and it wont work and so I wont try it.

not if you evacuated Russia like you did, or at least g2 would have been the same. Though if you had gone heavy atlantic in this game and all other things the same, I would have just waited till J4 to DOW.
I think the pressure with Russia was interesting but not in the amount you did, especially with zero pullback. Having no air really screwed you. And then choosing not to retreat back to Russia on R4 at the latest was the killer.
But I would also never combine that with an emphasis on Italy. Italy is neutralized but there are less costly ways of doing that that dont neuter your ability to pressure germany. But in this game you applied zero pressure to germany and have no ability to apply pressure to germany.
the problem with pullback is taht it was too late when i wanted to pull back
-
we can switch up and you can try it on me and I guarantee it wont work. I got 9 extra units just because you did nothing to defend Nov and had no air to make me defend my tt. So those can easily be avoided.

yes, maybe its not the russian entering china that is teh problem, but putting more pressure on germany.
and pulling back air from china earlier definitely. a few mechs can stay

but how 9 units?
-
yep, I dont think R1 was the problem. I think that has some nice benefits. And even R2 with a slight mod might have been ok.

so u say with weaker russia germany can more easily grab territories, russia losses money etc and then this gap between conservative russia and my russia is wider than it looks at first glance?
-
if you had air in Nov, I couldnt have taken Nov, so thats 2 units, 3 units purchased, and then 2 units on G4. Sorry, maybe just 7

yes.
But even with max conservative Russia, if Germany does this is needs a little help. But I think if the help is around, Germany wouldnt try it, because if it fails germany is screwed. But there was no chance germany failed this game. I didnt even need any air.
-
maybe i play too defensively with russia in eastern front. i usually stack south of the marshes and abandon novo early on

On g4 yes. But not g3. It was undefended G3. 2 inf and 2 air would be plenty.

yes, but my fears are that even if i went heavily with usa against germany, u could simply JDOW in rd 4, so russia is toast anyway.
and what could uk do against germany of 12 air, and some ships ?

no, thats not a problem. You also wasted a few inf in pointless blocks.
-

well, yes i somehow think that blocking to save ME ass is good
-
whats ur favourite side?
for me the allies, but i somehow think that the axis are overpowered, and will have to switch to axis, if the bids dont go up
but i ll try to improve the allies. i am playing against ADam, he is the allies so i ll try to get some exp from that game
-
when did your blocks do anything? For example, Bel and WUk after R3, they werent blocking anything.
