Scramble in z110???
no scrambling . . .
wait a minute, and here I thought that you were going to defend the virtues of Barbarossa to me?!
I guess it turns out that you are actually a sea lion fan after all . . .
No I don’t defend any strategy. Whether Sealion or Barborossa I think the game is still Allied advantaged, but not by much. I’m merely testing Sealion- I predict a loss for myself with this strategy- against good Allied play anyway. :wink: I’m not really sure if Barborossa is better either- I would like to test that out later- maybe in a couple of FTF games I got coming up. I think in 3-6months (barring anymore changes to Alpha+3- knock on wood), we’ll be playing games with a small bid for Allies similar to Revised and AA50- which IMO is alright with me- balanced enough.

Are we playing with the old Russian NO of any European axis or neutral territory, or the new one where it’s just axis and pro axis neutrals, but not just European?

I asked Kreighund this question earlier and I notified Larry about it about the Russian Communist NO:
Questioneer: “Krieghund, will there be a change to this NO (below) to say “continental” Europe excluding island like Ireland and Sicily, Sardinia being taken by the Russians with easy Allied transport help???”
Kreighund: “More likely, it will be changed to include only original German, Italian, and pro-Axis neutral territories.”
I’m gonna let common sense rule here in which I strongly believe Kreighund is right and that the NO will adjusted and worded to mean only original German, Italian and pro-Axis neutral territories. And yes let’s exclude islands like Sicily and Sardinia also. I notified Larry about this twice 3-4 weeks ago and he indicated that it would be changed.
I am ok with the new rules even though that makes things tougher on the Allies.
