That really depends more on what it will cost me than if I can perform and win, does it not?

[jim010]

Nor sure what you mean.  If you take London, US is free to enter the war, as am I.

Well, you are already free to enter the war - you’re playing England/India right?

What I mean is this.  If England looks like it will cost me too much to turn around and hit the Russians with, then it’s in my best interests to cancel the attack on England - this may be the case given what the Americans have near Japan and my ability to defend against it.

[jim010]

I’m Russia.

ghr2 is US and China.

Alsch91 is UK and Anzac

All those sunken German ships will bring in lots of scuba divers.  Tourism is about to be big on the German coast.

[Jennifer]

I give up, I can’t fight 3 people at once.  Too many eyes on the board.

Jim, if you want to play 1 on 1 let me know.

[Jennifer]

or for that matter, any of you want to play a game 1 on 1 let me know.  But with 6 eyes, there’s not a chance a mistake can get past them, but plenty of eyes to catch the slightest mistake on my part, like not landing a couple fighters in W. Germany to defend the fleet.

Sorry, but I really should have quit the instant we got new players, I had a mind too, I don’t really know why I did not.

Here’s the outline:

1)  Germany takes France, SZ 111, SZ 106, SZ 109, Yugoslavia and W. France - All good odds or if there are scrambles, good odds of killing fighters in England so that’s even better.
2)  Germany sets up Sea Lion - nothing can be done about it, except if there is a little snafu on NCMs
3)  Germany takes England

1)  Japan takes Kwangsi
2)  Japan puts bases on Kwangsi
3)  Japan takes Burma, Sham State and/or Malaya depending - uses carrier based aircraft to sink anything possible, or uses a huge aircraft stack to clear the Burmese out.
4)  Japan takes India

G’luck.

As of right now, I’m too busy to play a game by myself.  Interesting game, though.  Sealion seems to still be alive and well.

I think that playing a combined VC will work with Alpha 3, though.  Future games, I think, I will play with this.
