WW2v3 Deluxe Argothair (Axis) v. Stucifer (Allies) - playtest #1
-
@Argothair said in WW2v3 Deluxe Argothair (Axis) v. Stucifer (Allies) - playtest #1:
@Stucifer You definitely caught my Italians napping! I thought for sure they had another turn or so with at least some presence in the Med. I guess the Greek barracks were a mistake.
I like all the differences in the Sea Zones but after playing with all the scramble options PtV offers fleets feel so vulnerable haha
-
@Stucifer Great question! I had not thought about it. My personal preference is to just let China place its infantry whereever; they have enough problems. But I do want to minimize changes from WW2v3 where not absolutely necessary. Let me know if you have an opinion. :)
-
@Stucifer Yeah, I mean that’s at least partly my fault. The design is supposed to be that if the Italians are nervous about Allied air power, they can leave their fleet in the northern Adriatic, next to Yugoslavia, and then the Allies won’t have any bases they can hit it with early in the game; the Allies have to start liberating Med. islands first, or at least stage their air on Malta the turn before. No Taranto raids directly from London, I don’t think. But I left my fleet in the southern Med, where it’s more vulnerable.

The position seems pretty historically accurate so far, if I do say so myself. Of course, that means the Axis are in deep trouble…
