So this is what I estimate the battle for Moscow to look like if we turtle. Smolensk vs Vologda.

@crockett36 we win btw

@crockett36 smolensk vs Vologda
8 tanks, 1 mech next turn, all dive bombers turn after, all bombers turn after. Sound correct?

@crockett36 sorry, that was projected German purchases. Russian man spam.

@crockett36 said in ABH and crockett36, (A+69) tutor game:
@crockett36 how about this. I think i can keep leningrad, ukraine for one more turn. and let the russian figs defend yunnan. All of that and still turtle back to Moscow? Am I right?
It basically looks good. I reiterate. Would by only inf saving 2 IPC. Means R will be able to build 13 inf instead of 12 next turn.
Italy can’t can-open the Baltic now, which is good.
I would prefer to keep stuff in Belarus and W Ukraine, keeping pressure on E Poland. This is not so important though, since R can’t force the hand anyway if/when G stacks there.
However, Ukraine is rather safe and if G wants to trade 2 mech, 1 tank for 3 inf, then it’s good for us.
The air to Yunnan might be good, but not sure it’s needed. J has positive odds, but negative TUV, anyway. Think the air might be better in Caucasus, helping with the crush of Iraq.
UK will be able to swing in 4 inf, 2 fig, 1 sb for a strafe. Maybe want to take that down to 4 inf, 1 fig, 1 sb to avoid killing all the inf.
I’d move the sub to z110 in order to salvage it and join it with the allied fleet later. It will make a bigger impact then as convoy disrupter in the Med and possible can-opener than becoming fish food next turn.
Regarding the battle expectation for Moscow I still think it’s too early to extrapolate. I mean, it’s not really constructive since it may change a lot. Time is better invested in boiling down the overall strategy.
-
Despite what has been told about northern pressure I don’t understand what the maneuver to z4 is supposed to achieve. As it is now, it negates the Russian NO so G won’t even have to put a ship in z125 before controlling Archangel. Anyway, we’ll see how it plays out.

Oops, selected an airfield instead of the harbor so edited.
China holding on to Yunnan is a big gain for income and will be a major problem for Japan for a while. I was considering something more aggressive such as strafing Burma with my airforce followed by J3 takeover of India, but calculated it was just a little too risky.
I hate Allied destroyers so chose to take out a couple of them with fighters. It is a good trade in terms of value. I also strafed off the infantry standing in Western New Guinea since it is such a challenge for the Allies to get more troops to that island.
Japan is doing quite well at the end of J2, achieving all of the objectives except for Yunnan. I will need more ground units to deal with China so have two factories to crank out troops. Meanwhile, the Allied fleet is completely out of position with the Americans doing something strange up in Siberia and ANZAC unable to do much useful. The fighters in Queensland would have much more problematic as they could have attacked a fleet if I had insufficient strength.

I looked at your map and think that the moves I chose are significantly better. Let me know if you feel any of your choices were superior.
I don’t think I need to bring my fleet back up to the Sea of Japan as the Americans don’t have much choice but to retreat anyway. They currently are in such a useless spot that they don’t bother Japan. I want to have the flexibility for a strong attack into India on J4 or J5, and scare off any ability for ANZAC to start a real fleet.
-
So I haven’t look at the map. I skimmed the above text. So US will attack Gibraltar. Taskforce Endzone will noncom into the sea of Japan and convoy. I will bring a bomber into position to bomb Japan. I will buy a carrier and two planes and a destroyer.
I will follow up with a strafe of Gibraltar with the London fighters and bomber. I am tempted to strafe time but I’ll bet it’s 50/50. And I think we’re ahead except for the likelihood of losing Calcutta but that cannot be helped if Japan wants it.
