Anzac Shuck Into Europe
-
@Stucifer Maybe I’m not understanding the data correctly.
-
Having even a single fully loaded aircraft carrier with a destroyer escort means that Japan would have to commit a moderate amount of resources to sinking that fleet. If the fleet gets sunk then great, they will most certainly sink Japanese vessels along with it and thus weakening the fleet for America to move in. Having a fully loaded carrier or better yet 2 means you can actually start making your way to the money islands and taking them back from Japan. If Japan attempts to sink said fleet, as I said thats Americas chance to move in.

@TheDesertFox I do think this would work well with a Naval build up off the coast of Persia.
-
If you’d like to test that theory online, I could play the Axis and you could play the Allies
-
@TheDesertFox Let do that. I’m Debating if we should use this post or not I think we should just because it relates to my topic. Let’s do no bid and no tech.
-
Works for me. We’ll setup the game over DMs
-
@FranceNeedsMorePower i´ve done it with anzac. Turn 1 with transport pick up the guy from NZ and move east. Turn 2 take brazil. Turn 3 go with two inf to gibraltar or marocco and buy a minor IC to churn out some subs or ground units. Send in destroyer and cruiser for protection.
This allows for an allied player that comes in between italy and germany. Not a game changer but can be anoying and it´s a cool game. -
@TheDesertFox What’s a “DM” is that like direct message? Like the chat room feature or something? I’m ready when your are. If we could just to simplify the process can we just send saved games back and forth. If not then we could do play by forum.
-
@Cornwallis Do you think it’s an effective strategy currently we are debating the topic what are your thoughts on the strategy?
-
Yes direct message was what I meant. And sending saved games is easiest
-
@FranceNeedsMorePower hm it depends on where the US is focusing. If US goes into europe then i would go Pacific with anzac and leave Brasil for the US. If US goes for japan then this can help putting some nuissance in europe.
But i think giving Persia to anzac is more efficient then. Gargantua has a youtube video called the Anzac Express. -
Well you certainly stirred up some discussion :)
I have heard of ANZAC in S America and seen it a few times in other’s games. None I’ve been a part of.
As crockett said and Fox and Stucifer as well, I think the best use of ANZAC resources are a “ANZAC First” policy.
Cornwallis also points out to where, situationally, it may offer the oppurtunity to do it.
-
@barnee Thanks for your thoughts! I do agree that maybe under very specific circumstances that this may be a possible option.
-
France already does that. ANZAC is redundant in that case.
-
The issue is if you do that there’s not enough frosting for the Pacific cake.
ANZAC going off into Europe means there’s less resources for the Pacific, which means that Japan has a better chance of winning.
As everyone else has said, it’s far more efficient for ANZAC to concentrate on the Pacific.
If you want more power in Europe, just have the US spend more money in the Atlantic. As a bonus they can cooperate with all the other American units that are likely to be in North Africa or Europe anyway.
Meanwhile, ANZAC sticking to the Pacific means shorter supply lines which means they can reinforce their troops more easily (without the cost of building more facilities). This is especially helpful to defend their capital.
-
@SuperbattleshipYamato France does what? I’m not understanding.
-
@SuperbattleshipYamato I love this cake frosting metaphor we have been using, it’s a banger.
-
@SuperbattleshipYamato That makes sense the way you put it.
-
France already serves as a canopener in Europe between Italy and Germany. ANZAC isn’t needed for that purpose.
-
WOW, so much comments on an old topic.
What I was saying, was rather simple.
Taking 2 IPC more in Brasil, and stuck 4 / 5 troops in GBTR, would be of help.
Then I would not spend much more time there.
Meantime ANZAC should grab any chance to disturb the JAP on the money islands, and building ships, ships, ships
SZ54 is in the range of 1 move, from Hawai, so Anzac fleet can join with US, and viceversa.
This would be of help against the overhelming JAP fleet.
When playing on TripleA, I am usually able to get back Philippines with ANZAC, with great benefit for US.
ANZAC has a lot do (as a support); even if it start with very low income and very less units.
