that’s part of the reason I prefer live play, I have the time so that I can.

Hmm, very clever – so that’s why you kept building jets! I gather that may be part of what you meant by ‘I’ll tell you my thoughts on infantry defending at 3 after the game.’ I suppose a huge stack of infantry and jets might be overpowered, given the stats I’ve assigned to everything. The infantry are very hard to wipe out, the jets can attack from far away, which protects them until it’s go time, and so you can do very well with a force of nothing but infantry and jets. Part of that is that I was shamelessly robbing Leningrad of defenders to go play in Poland and so on, and you called my bluff, but part of it may be the unit balance. I’ll have to think about it, and I’d value your thoughts, too.
More immediately, I think that forces a retreat to Moscow? I’m going to lose Norway, Lithuania, and Murmansk, so it’s not just that I’m down a factory, I’m down all of the income that used to fuel that factory. That means your stack in Leningrad has nothing stopping it from just marching on Moscow unless the South Russia stack moves north; I can’t build enough in Moscow to hold it without reinforcements. But if I abandon the South Russia factory then I lose the money territories in the south, too, so at that point I’m just bottled up in Moscow sniping at the Urals or Archangel or whatever. It’ll take a few turns, but it seems like that’s where it’s headed. The Japanese break through in Kazakh, after a couple of turns, too, unless I get quite lucky.
So I basically have to take Tokyo just to stay in the game, which is not…impossible, but it seems like an uphill battle. That’s my analysis. What’s yours?
-
Agreed, but UK is putting real pressure on Western Europe too. My weakness on the western front is an opening.
-
I was watching Leningrad to see if there was an opening and there was. But I also got luck too.
Jets are basically the new bombers in this game, I figure. You could reduce range to make them more tactical. Super attack and defense but range 3?

huh, got it to post now
-
Yeah, that’s fair. The range is hard to get right – the biplanes are supposed to be primitive, so they need a short range. Historically, interceptors had a short range because they went so fast in order to chase down and destroy enemy aircraft – lots of mph, not so much mpg. The jets might need a short range because they are so powerful. So that leaves what, just the strategic bombers as the only non-short-range aircraft? I’m not in love with it. I wonder if I need a sixth aircraft type; I hope not.
I could maybe cut the jet range down from 6 to 4? Jets were longer-range than biplanes, for sure.
While we’re talking about unit design, I also feel like the game is missing a high-defense option. The BBs defend at 4, and the bunkers defend at 4, but you can’t build bunkers. So I could let people build bunkers? But some people hate that, they say it makes the game too static.
I don’t know that the western front is really all that weak – I had to give the Ruhr a high IPC value to make Germany competitive, but that also means that the Ruhr is pretty easy to defend, as long as you keep building infantry there. You’ll be rich in a couple of turns, so I don’t think you’ll run out of infantry. Britain is slowly losing income as Africa slips into Italian hands and India goes Japanese, so they don’t have the money to put more than their current ~12 troops per turn into western Europe, and I think Germany can defend against that without too much trouble. 8 units in Ruhr, 3 units in S. France, and honestly that’s enough to hold for essentially the whole game, although you could always send in a mech now and then to keep it totally even.
I edited the code to fix the canals, so now in the new version you can get from North Sea <-> Baltic Sea if you own either Denmark or Norway. I think that would put more pressure on Germany because then they have to worry about defending their Baltic Sea fleet, defending Prussia, etc. I don’t know if that’s good or bad; Germany didn’t seem totally overpowered.
I’ll play a couple more turns, but I suspect you’ve won. Again, I’m having a lot of fun – thanks for giving it a try!
-
Yeah taking back france flipped those territories in North Africa. Would be cool if you had an option button to liberate a capitol or not.
If USA could punch through algeria it would be able to stuff Italy
-
Oh, that’s really clever. I might actually be able to code that; I’ll investigate. Good idea!
Cause yeah, liberating france was a huge unforced error on my part. Would have totally changed the game.
