Pejon_88 (Allies +16) vs. Naviator (X), BM4, game 1

[Naviator]

@pejon_88 I was wondering, if I use airplanes to attack and non-con them to a territory with an AF, can I scramble or I cannot because they were in combat during that round?

My bomber wasn’t doing much so I decided to bomb the factory, you are using that factory, therefore I think it is a good move. I guess one could argue that since it’s a minor factory I am losing value and that you can ditch it anytime you want. I don’t think it’s necessary a bad move, in case it is, maybe just slightly.

[Pejon_88]

@naviator If you use them on say Germany’s turn and land them where there is an AB you can scramble them on any of the opposing countries’ turn, so yes.

What I mean is that you will grab that factory in two turns, which pretty much negates me building in it from R6 and on since you will easily kill everything left there when you arrive. Since USSR usually gets pushed back to towards Moscow sooner or later, I don’t mind that much building new units in my farther factories since the front will gradually be pushed closer and closer to Moscow it that makes sense.

[Pejon_88]

@pejon_88 USSR fights a defensive war until it can get assistance from its Allies, unless it has already fallen by then hehe.

[Naviator]

@pejon_88 Yeah, I am familiar with the scenario. Usually British supply their Fighters to hold Karelia in '42 and USA goes also or to the Mediterranean. I just thought Germany here needs to defend more so than to attack USSR.

@naviator No, the “only” way Axis can win is by keeping the momentum. If you get into mid-game and it’s a stalemate, Allies will most likely out-build the Axis if they have a superior income.
