@crockett36 I think I’m going to forgo the bombardment of Gibraltar and let the Brits handle Gib by moving the cruiser and destroyers to 106. Maybe. I’d love to kill those fighters, but can’t do it all.

[crockett36]

@crockett36 so I think we ought to move the Burma force to yunnan and March to Hong Kong

[surfer]

if you tried that, what would protect India?
At most you buy 4 inf + 5 existing = 9 guys.

J is going to take India with 10 + 2 ftr + 2 tac from 2CVs. No counter for 2 turns so J can build in India.
Still sending a large force to SZ6 to sink US since I won’t need aircraft to take India.

China will rage, but push 7 + 3 buys to defend FIC next turn. FIC will stand since China can’t take. Kwangtung takes 2 turns go get to with slow moving Chinese and Brit forces. Maybe I can get there, but I’m on the coast and soon to be target practice for the Japanese. China needs to expand on the interior.

[surfer]

If you don’t get the factories, then losing India means the land war will be lost by the Chinese.

[surfer]

BTW, we don’t need all the Brit forces in Yunnan to hold. China can buy 4 guys+1 art. Move Szechwan in. Use the 2 guys in Shensi + ftr to take Kweichow. Keep
Brit ftr + tac + 2 AA
17 inf+ 3 art+ 1 ftr + Brits of (2 inf + 1 ftr+ 1 tac+2 AA) is 40/60 loser against the entire J airforce plus ground units.

J wouldn’t be able to send all of those however, as many are heading to SZ6 to sink the US…

Put the 5 guys back in India + 1 ftr + 1 AA, added to the 5 + 4 means that against 10 + 2ftr+2tac is a 50/50 ish (high variability) fight for India. I would put another ftr for comfort, especially considering that Yunnan is highly unlikely to be attacked

[surfer]

@crockett36 What 10 units + 12 hit pts are you talking about in the second wave?
You have 4 units in Amur.
The 2 ftrs + CV in SZ10 can’t attack SZ6 for 2 turns. (The ftrs could, if there was a CV to land on) but that still only 6 units.
You could put the 2 ftrs on the CV in SZ6 in Amur instead, but that still only 8 and only 8 hit points

J will have 3 CVs + 9 aircraft + other ships…not a good battle.

[surfer]

Giving up 21 IPCs worth of transports to defend India is tough to justify, but Brit2c move might be best option. Not sold on the idea of just trashing the US fleet. I feel like there is a better move than just putting it to the bottom.

I would also leave the Brit aircraft in Yunnan. Better to defend there.

[surfer]

Leave Gibraltar alone. The bright spots we have are Yunnan and the Med.
We don’t need to move through Gibraltar this turn, and sure it would be nice to get a ftr, but keeping the US forces as a threat to invade is more important.

G will leave, and then take Gibraltar with US and Brits are free to move wherever.

[crockett36]

@surfer suggestions taken into account. Here is a possible turn.

@crockett36 should be one more plane in Iraq. Other than that I like everything about this. Pac vc win is fading from the view as Sidney grows stronger. Calcutta has a reserve force. Yunnan will be costly to take.

Europe is doing well with total control of the Med and good strength in Africa. Killing the German wolfpack puts an end to their menace. The huge number of British planes will be problematic for the Germans, especially with the devastation inflicted on the German air force. Killing those two fighters was a smart move. You probably should have built a factory in Egypt and a factory in Persia to start pumping even more units into the Middle East. That would have been more valuable than 3 fighters.

Asia on the other hand is a mess. Odds are that Japan will get a +100 TUV turn next round, destroying that weak American navy with virtually no casualties, and destroy that irreplaceable Chinese stacks. That is too much of a loss for the Allies.
