  • And you just have 1 German ship, so even if the Italian bomber did its dirty deed, the Luftwaffe might have taken heavy losses.
    Maybe you will still go for it

    @gamerman01 and the hits just keep coming…frsnce is going to win this on its own

  • '20 '19

    @gamerman01 just on my forum posts you are on +9 casualties inflicted without how well or badly the uk/china did on its go. 8 hits in greece dont make up for only 2 hits in normandy…esp as you hit3/4 there as well. This is just a lost cause as I dont think you will make any mistakes to exploit either

  • '20 '19

    @gamerman01 even the 1 sub did 3/4 convoy!


  • Unbelievable. I’ll take a look
    Thanks for playing the G2 already
    I have to go do some charity work, back in an hour


  • That is ridiculous. And you kept your head (kept calm) for doing G2. You still have a big army on my border and 10 aircraft with Germany, so I have to be sure I don’t get lazy.


  • R2.tsvg

    Russia 2 was hard even though you lost 3 mech in Normandy, lost 2 infantry in Yugo, and took all infantry to Greece… I shudder to think…

    @gamerman01 hey there, thinking you may have missed my g post?


  • Nope - I know it’s my turn


  • Your Russian offensive is hardly weakened by the difficult dice…
    I have to be in tip top condition, well rested, well fed, at peak morale and praying for a terrible winter in order to hold Moscow

  • 2025 2024 '23 '22 '15 '11 '10 Official Q&A Moderator

    Several of your battles went poorly, but quickly reviewing the first 2 rounds of the game (because your Russian offensive is very strong), I realize the following:
    Some battles went quite well for the Axis

    1. France went well. Only 1 artillery lost
    2. Yugo about average, 2 infantry lost (so no reduced pressure on Russia)
    3. 97 lost, but UK had to lose 2 planes and the 2 remaining surfaceships were cleaned up with no losses by Germany
    4. Although Italy lost sub/destroyer in 93, the cruiser got lucky and took out a UK sub that is a major threat to convoy damage
    5. Normandy, Germany lost 3 mech and 2 artillery that were not lost in Paris G1
    6. Greece, even though 3/4 infantry hits looks awful, Germany actually only lost 1.67 extra infantry, and they won’t get to Russia for a few turns anyway
    7. Normandy and Holland cleaned up, no losses

    So although you and I both felt like the Axis were taking hard hits, as I look at it fresh today, I have a real war on my hands. Disasters were partly mitigated, for sure, especially 97 and 93
    No resting on laurels yet. Game on!!


  • What is really tough for you is the UK has a good fleet still floating, the Italians have been decimated, and the Western wall is not a wall.
