@Gargantua:

Italian mismanagement is keeping the Allies in the game.  :P

Sure blame it on poor Italian play and not stellar allied play to salvage the med front after a horrendous Taranto.

In other news you guys might need this

In Mother Russia we invade YOUR country.

[seth4god]

@Cow:

I have no idea what is going to happen here.

It was best to pull back to epl. I need to get my head in the game, thought 114 was too far for your navy to reach and figured I didn’t need to block 113. Ah well, Russia … . they’re a backwards people.  :evil:

[seth4god]

Small change, I originally took Kansu w/5inf not 4inf. That’s the only discrepancy I found in the dice. Meant to double check earlier but the rest of the battles playing out with the same casualties lulled me into a false sense of confidence.

[Cow]

special mooquest for japan. can you go to sz 75 with your carrier dd sub fig tactical? to sink uk’s fleet and stop the ruskie national objective for me… or rush union of south africa if you really want to expand. That is always fun.

It is okay if you can’t. i am doing things fine. I am about to hold novgorod next turn.

[Cow]

yeah I thought you were goading me to do this… then again the only way I could do this move was to have italy win tank vs infantry warfare.

[Cow]

russia just took a japanese territory bordering mongolia… so mongolia cannot side with the allies anymore right?

[seth4god]

@Cow:

yeah I thought you were goading me to do this… then again the only way I could do this move was to have italy win tank vs infantry warfare.

watcha talking about willis? And yes, the mongolians will stay neutral for the duration of the war. Sad, but I felt it was needed and USSR will be fine without those infantry. I would’ve taken Manchuria as well, but it’d be taken right back before China and would end up costing me an inf for no gain and would just weaken my blocking force.

[Cow]

Japan I am going to run some calcs for you  and run some options by. I need something to happen in the pacific.

[Gargantua]

Don’t have a COW!

Just liberate Europe from the Ruskans.

[seth4god]

@Cow:

Tojo ain’t got no mojo.  :mrgreen:

Seriously though, the only thing that makes sense about the tank vs inf is the baltic states.

[seth4god]

I’m actually considering a bomber for USSR, hmm.

[Cow]

actually, you are doing fine. you making it happen, you got enough to hold burma next next round. minor shangtung kiangsu or kwangtung at least, I might drop 2 minors. you need naval buys since you started trading naval with usa

I am thinking… infantry 2 mech for FIC, minor ic, 1 sub, 3 dd, 1 carrier.

You have to kind of accept you will lose dutch islands when you go to take india, which is fine, because he still has to block your naval. so you get some kills in when he does that and he gets to hold an isle for a round till the full might of japan can just focus on it. The main thing is the victory city, because if usa is stuck in the dutch islands, you can easily gambit hawaii and win right there. So there is a limit on what usa can do when you are 1 victory city away from winning.

1 inf 2 mech 3 sub 2 dd, 2 minor ic is also very good for a more counter attack japan setup.

The rest don’t really matter as long as all available ground forces get in burma range you are fine.

with two minors down, it pumps out 6 units next turn. china collects 1 ipc this turn (you kill tsinghai), you pump out 6 units next turn. Giving up a little ground is okay, The VCs are what matter, it is the only way to win. china will be done in time, once india is out of the picture things are 10x simpler. you just build up to sink the allies after that and it turns into a mexican standoff. When you are surrounded it becomes tricky because the allies are coming in from all directions.

I’d kill tsinghai this turn, if you got a dd blocking 55, you could consider sending sz 37 off with an infantry and artillery to sz 75 then you threaten union of south africa. russia NO etc. More importantly it threatens india (though it can be blocked which is fine).

forget i said anything about union. Germany will do what germany does and italy will do what italy does. I am fine. It is an option to consider though, I can’t snipe naval with germany this turn anyway.

[Cow]

you pretty much got india in the bag. next round I might consider a naval base, because if usa goes dutch, you go take hawaii and win, which he knows you can do so it puts him in a bind… he preferably wants to be in caroline islands when india falls, which he says so himself in the global forum, which is a spot most people like to be, but it is a hard spot to hold, especially if he continues to buy atlantic.

In the end he’ll have 60% odds or something like that to kill burma, which is fine because a naval base on FIC allows you to slam india anyway.

For this round I’d use 1 inf to attack burma, because he knows you are just going to stack there anyway.
~
Also I am going to fly a couple german bombers to szechwan. I didn’t want to spoil the supplies, but it stops this blocking stuff from happening. so after this round if they want to block they need at least 2 destroyers and prayer.

[Cow]

Another good move is shove 7 infantry to burma. uk pac can ignore it, all in, or attempt to strafe. In the all in scenario you counter attack him in burma and take india no problem. In the ignore it scenario, you can take india and get it over with if you see no other attacks available. If he strafes it successfully you can move in to burma and hold burma garaunteed and India is done after that.

In this japan playstyle you would drop naval base on kwangsi, airbase for FIC to guard xports so you can front your japan fleet in sz 37, which means he can take celebes, but he’ll have to block you in 3 spots. Also if his dd hits, you block him in sz 42, which is better for you.

If you have to choose between sinking usa or full burma stack… sink usa, because india will be that much easier later knowing you have nothing else to worry about.
`

you could do the big burma stack as well, which is what your last turn was heading toward and do the earlier buy i mentioned.

`
you could play “the income game” and you could go union africa, shuffle men to soviet far east,  and just grow your bank roll like that. USA would be kinda forced to save union first or london.

`
you could also do what you are doing, you will get india eventually… I recommend minor factory for kwangtung so you outproduce india by more than 1 unit and allows flexibility between minors to pump naval out as needed.

~
All these japan styles are good, there is no right or wrong way. You got options veqryn, I will be gone for the day. :D
