Map for 1941 axis strategy

[Imperious Leader]

its mostly axis, but builds are indicated.

also that map is outdated, for japan i favor a factory in Manchuria on J1 since last year called the ‘Manchurian Candidate’

Is there some update with the german offensive on G1, with your map Il ? Got some problems with en effective german offensive against russia. My russian oponent is always lucky as hell and give me good counter attack.

I’d say disregard the “slow game” for Germany.  It prescribes not attacking Sea Zone 6, thought the only justification I see for that move is to have the sub for soak to defend the Baltic Fleet.  When redoing the map, that German strategy should be omitted.

[Imperious Leader]

yes i mostly like it for Japans moves anyway. For japan always build the Factory in Manchuria on J1, take Buryatia and dont invade Phillipines and attack one less Chinese territory, using these forces to take Buryatia.

i once had the crazy idea to just go for moscow or caucasus
turns out russians are to strong
so, barbarossa doesn’t work
still hate it
makers should of leats gave it a chance

(plan was: attack east poland with troops of poland, ukraine with bulgaria and 2 guys you ship from africa
perhaps assault baltic states with guy and canon with transport, and 3 fighters. Bomber and another fighter take down with 2 subs the sz 12 fleet. Second round i would unite eastern front at eastern ukraine, together with tank from france, who can now reach. problem is: russia wacks those troops all the time. anybody who can improve the plan?

I think I see a flaw in you strategy.  C1: move 1 Suiyuan inf to Manchuria, move 1 Fukien inf to kiangsu.  Place 2 new inf in Manchuria.

still, awesome map.

I think I see a flaw in you strategy.  C1: move 1 Suiyuan inf to Manchuria, move 1 Fukien inf to kiangsu.  Place 2 new inf in Manchuria.

Japanese fighter lands in Manchuria, so its 1 vs 4.

Also on second point your correct, so attack Hupeh with 2 rather than 3 and leave one back in kaingsu.

alternate send 2 from Kaingsu and one from Manchuria and take out suiyuan instead.

I love you maps IL, but you really need to give them better and more descriptive names,
for example:
AA50 1941 Round 1 Strategy Map Updated June 9 2009  (would make more sense then calling it HE Phase 1 Final Map with icons copy copy copy copy copy)

[Imperious Leader]

yes correct. When you DL just change the name of the file.
