it is bc it opens the door for a german blitz.

key trick isnt the infantry thing thats too slow. daves move is to grab the tank off africa to add another one, and use the yugoslavia retreat trick with both germany and italy in sucession

Hi ColonelCarter,

Thanks so much for your reply. I will tell a bit about the background of my question. We played Axis and Allies 1940 Europa a number of times, in the beginning the Axis player could still surprise the Allies player with a new strategy now and then, but at the end we had a ‘solution’ for every Axis strategy, and the Allies always won. So, we were looking for ways making the game a little more balanced, and as a result we wondered whether Russia and USA actually have a turn before they are at war. But after reading your response, I must admit that there still Axis strategies to try and hopefully our games with become a little more exciting:)

Can you use research and development with just Europe?

Yeah, I kind of agree with you Variance. Europe is where most of the action is. Plus, if you just play Europe, it takes up a lot less space on the table.
Yet, every time I think, let’s just play Europe, I already start to miss the Japanese. I just can’t seem to get into a game without the Japanese making trouble on the other side of the board.

No. The transport must be accompanied for its entire move in order to be “escorted”.

Has anyone actually played to 8 VCs? Axis can't "win", can only stalemate.

I don’t think it was a case of me missing a specific city. Rather, I thought “there’s 10 victory cities, we need 8, so that means we must capture all but Ottawa and Washington!”

There are flat areas at Gibraltar as well, and lets not forget the history of the German attack on Eban-Emael. If the Germans had thought about approaches to Gibraltar earlier, they could have demanded access through Vichey N. Africa, make Spain give Er Rif its independence, followed by a German invasion of Er Rif…bring up their 8 big Krupp guns, pound Gibraltar with 562 pound shells every 30 seconds, contest the air night and day, then invade. Another idea would have been to force Spain to accept non-beligerant status and move through daring the Brits to contest them in Spain.

@allboxcars:

@Brain:

A can opener is just two countries working together as it should be.

Good point. [Applaud silently]

Yes, there is no way to eliminate can opener strategies because the Axis need to work together, and the Allies need to work together in order to win the game.
