NWO: Pug6000 (Allies) vs. Alex (Axis + 10)

@alexgreat:

Can you please edit my AA in Lvov into Ukrainskaya, thank you! Forgot that.

Sorry, forgotten. But you can do it yourself.

Ok, let’s take a look at the US. They are taking the southern path. Normally I have to buy a 2 more fighting ships, but you were very passive, so there was little need. Goal is to achieve early a shipping bridge to your destination. You want to get 10 units per turn to Europe. More will be produced in Europe itself. If you are heading for France you will need even more. Or the US will take over the naval fighting part against Germany.

On the southern path there are 2 possibilities: Morocco and Spain. Spain is the usual goal. C.Ortegal is a wonderful place for first landing operation, though many try Portugal. C.Ortegal is more expensive counting transports, but  faster for helping in France and cheaper for first landing.

I start to get a good picture of how to play properly as allies :)

Round 1 to 3 is for setting up the strategy, after that it’s mostly tactics. It’s hard to switch the general strategy after round 3 (though possible … you need lots of mobile units for that).

Ok, let’s take a look at the Russian strategy.

In the south I build up a massive force of infantry. So far I can stop any German advance. But I have little offensive power, so I cant advance myself. Stalemate for some time. Russia also has lots of fighters to exchange territories without too many losses.

The North is more interesting. The mobile and offensive units are stacked at Lenindgrad. I can hold Leningrad at the moment, but it can become a close thing in the future.
On the other hand Finnland is already getting extremly weak despite the bid reinforcement. Belomorsk and N.Finnland are pretty even at the moment. But Finnland can raise the stack by 6 infantry only. Compare it with Russia. If I am willing to give Leningrad, I can raise the stack by 4 artillery, 9 tanks (Leningrad + Omsk), 8 trucks, 5 fighter, 1 Bomber + 8 units build in Archangelsk and Leningrad next turn. Finnland is not able to survive alone. It needs German support. What Russia will do depends of course on Germany, but the North is the offensive part of my strategy.

Time to take a look at the British strategy.

There are 3 theatres where UK is present:

• Northern France / Paris
• Eastern Med
• Turkey

Turkey is simple:
if you get Ankara you have to hold it at any price. It might be hard in the beginning, but it’s the key for winning in that area. You can even put pressure on Italy now, though if you are fighting in France, that’s very hard. Remember that idea when Italy is under pressure from the US.

Eastern Med:
well, you cant get everything. Delay Italy. Maybe you survive till US arrives in Europe and Italy is fighting hard to keep them out of the Med.

Northern France:
As you can see it’s important to plan early reinforcements. Otherwise you have many transports, but no units for shipping. But you can also already see what I mentioned earlier: even if you feel lucky and should win in Paris now - UK is already stronger than Germany will remain in that case.

[lexgreat]

yes, I see that I played not well. Or is it not common wisdom that Germany takes Paris in G3? Even G2, but at cost (but probably to avoid UK reinforcements?)

Was it too late to take the Factory in Morocco and Greece in I3?

And now US: they are heading to Spain, building up lots of production capacity. As stated before, there are other possibilities, like going for Scandinavia or directly for the Channel, but I think this is the most common strategy.

About Paris: yes, G3 is usual. A few try to get Paris in round 2 already. But round 4 or even later is really bad for Axis. One of the few really important tasks at the start.

Morocco can also be done in round 3. I saw really nice variations for this, though I never play it like that. Greece is more important. It’s possible to take Tunis in round 1 and Greece and Morocco in round 2. Wirkey also has a variation with getting Greece in round 1 and Tunis in round 2, which is really interesting. Morocco gets important in 2 rounds, when Italy might try to hold the strait of Gibraltar against the US. But US can also go straight for Morocco and free it.

Could redo Germany, but honestly with this game its too complicated to think about what I did. Sorry (but we are under no pressure, thankfully).
