Eggman (Axis) vs. Miamiumike (Allies +6)

[miamiumike]

Yeah - the scramble off UK didn’t work as I hoped - though, I did take out 3 planes, I made up for that by killing 3 more planes in the Med.

I really am not sure what I am doing as the Allies here….I probably would do well to go back and review our games - and others - do get SOME idea of what an Allied strategy is. Right now, I am winging it, and that usually does not mean its a winning idea…

Italy can still be blocked from collecting NOs on I2, so you seem to be doing fine so far.  Having to replace lost air is certainly going to slow down my German plans a little.

[miamiumike]

Obviously without an IC in Egypt - all I can do right now is try to slow down Italy as much as I can for as long as I can…we’ll see if that turns out to be a good plan or not…

Nobody is stopping you from making that IC… heh, heh.

That roll for Italy may have been the end of the game I am afraid…

@miamiumike:

That roll for Italy may have been the end of the game I am afraid…

That was pretty sweet, but hardly game-ending, especially if I fail to take India.  I realized too late that I should have left a Japanese DD behind to block any US shenanigans, dealing with that is going to be a major annoyance.

[Eqqman]

Ah… and I will fail to get India since I missed one avenue where you could block shipping over fodder units.

[miamiumike]

I had to hunt to find that….originally I was going to hit the tranny, but, of course with your airfield, that makes that attack impossible.

It may have stopped you for one turn…

@miamiumike:

It may have stopped you for one turn….

More than that, it basically calls it off.  If I do the J2 DoW then I’m obligated to attack J3 since I then have to respond to US moves.  If I attack J4 instead of J3, you have more fodder to place in India than I will have added to my own attack force, which only had 81% odds to begin with (and this is with sacrificing 2/3 of the air force).  My Japan strategy is over; now I have to figure out how to pick up the pieces.  if I hit India later it will be the end result of an entirely new plan.

[Eqqman]

To quote Austin Powers: First I'm going to soil myself.  Then, I'm going to regroup and come up with a new plan.
