I normally maintain peace with the west and go after USSR & China. There’s a possibility of a UK2 DOW with that. I think USSR’s best response is to hold in Buryatia. Those troops aren’t getting back to Moscow in time anyway. I’ve never seen USSR helping out China but maybe it would make sense if there’s no UK2 DOW? The Soviet air force could defend against strategic bombing G3 and also defend Yunnan J3. Never thought about that before.
Best moves for sinking UK fleet G1?

I like to sink the z91 cruiser because it makes a taranto attack harder for UK.
-
spendo you should swap the bomber from 111 to 110.
Who cares about the cruiser in 91. uk can just bring a fighter to 97 from london. to do so would distract a sub or bomber, can it work? sure. but in ll and dice games it is risky.
This game is all about NASH theory and risk reward analysis.

Have no map now.
2subs sink dd,tranny
1sub,1battleship, 3fgt,3tac sink 2cruisers and BB
2subs,1fgt,1tac,2bmb sink dd,cruizer and BB.

yeah that is the standard move rommel, works everytime in low luck games.
for dice games, if I buy barbarossa… UK sometimes scrambles 110 and makes me very sad when his 8-13% chance to defend happens (forgot the odds).

I really like to get the cruiser in 91 to help ot Italy.

I think you basically HAVE to sink the Sz91 Cruiser.
It’s not an option, it’s not a potential strike. It’s a MUST.
I’m also toying with the idea of clearing the navy off of Southern France…
For the European axis to have a GOOD game (Which makes life easy) Italy has to be a major player, and HAS to be protected by Germany, with efforts made by German units to secure Italian NO’s.

G2 should consider if possible, the invasion of Gib/Morocco, especially if there is no destroyer blocking the capture.

Would you also take Southern France too?

i usually have:
2 subs 1 bb 3 fig 3 tac to 110
2 subs 1 fig 1 tac 2 sb to 111
and 1 ss to 106 -
Thanks a lot for the responses guys. I just played a game and went for the 2 subs/battleship/3 fighters/3 tacs to 110 and 2 subs/fighter/tac/2 bombers to 111. Worked like a charm.

If this is the case, (and I think it may be) how would you do it? IE: Where would you reposition your ressources? It seems to me you cna only get your two subs down there. 1 sub on each 111 and 110 then?

Probably have to ignore one of the two SZ’s or risk losing aircraft in the process which is counter productive when you trade aircraft for cruisers.
