Generally pacific builds consists of a 2 to 1 ratio of subs-destroyer. Following turn is 5-6 bombers. This forces Japan to start building fleet instead of troops for India/China crush.
I just had to give som additional thumbs up fo9r this comment :D Buying other combat ships than subs, dds (Or CW + ftrs) is rarely correct. the 2 to 1 ratio shos that sean knows how fodder works and how it is the most important thing in these battles.
The only reason to stop buying the subs is if japan for some reason dont respond with fleetbuilding and only buys planes instead. But then you should win anyways :D
which is why i said that it didn’t work against a too planeheavy japan. on theory, the DDs + other surface ships ofc needs to be enough to stop all the planes of japan + 2 rounds of plane only builds of japan.
What would prevent japan from attacking your fleet of subs-destroyers with air and a few destroyers. With 20+ planes they can whipe out your whole fleet with minimal losses as subs cant even hit the planes.
I normaly go for a carrier heavy fleet followed by subs destroyers for attacking power. Ideally i want my carriers to bait an early attack from japan that i can crush in the counter and get his carriers and BB out of the way so anzac and UKP can clean up the rest.

Started new thread seeing as though this is Global and not Europe. I added only a light stain (any darker would make the wood burning look odd). Also added the plexiglass, which was not in previous pictures

Man, you obviously put a LOT of effort into this. Does the map have a plexiglass covering? EXTRA COOL! And my friends say that I put too much effort and expense into my games. Compared to you, I’m barely playing right out of the box.
So you still use the paper IPC notes? I stopped because I started using the IPC tracking chart provided at the end of the rulebook. I find it takes up a lot less space that way. Then again, I guess you aren’t really worried about that.
Excellent job. -

Excellent job.How do you use the ipc tracking chart over multiple rounds? Do you write in pencil?
