@JWW:

@DarthMaximus:

Yeah, you could probably get 20 or more.  Lol!

Although, If I’d ever get beyond 12 (in the 15 range) I’d seriously consider a PE play with Russia.

A PE??

Power Europe.

5-6 inf to Russia to start might not be enough to prevent G from attacking bst/epl/ukr, but 6 inf to Bel or Euk might make Epl stackable on Russia 1.  I’d have to run through typical G1 results on the Eastern Front.  Although a 5-6 armor buy on G1 may be enough to discourage the move, Then again UK could throw over two early ftrs.

With something like 20 (4 inf, 1 rt Bel, 1 rt Euk) you could probably wipe out all the German armor in Bst and Ukr (maybe even Epl).

@JWW:

You are getting screwed by the dice gods.

I took some risky battles, trying to conserve inf.  Just happy the bom didn’t get hit in Trj.

Nice to only see the 1 ipc damage in the SBR too.

I like the balance of an art or an arm with some inf. It let’s R attack on R1 w/a bit more confidence, if one of the G1 attacks goes a bit poorly. I think R, w/the UK’s help needs to keep G to only 2 NO’s. and EPL is very important as you state. I’m ok trading epl w/G but letting them put an anchor there is trouble.
