@DeadTom:

My understanding is that it gives the Germans more flexibility with turn 2 options. I can buy mostly ground for Barbarossa, transports for sea lion, or carriers and transports in the med (since I have the south France factory). Building a carrier and transports or destroyer/sub would limit me against Russia and make it harder to get in the med (although not impossible). Building ground turn 1 would further limit my options.

Besides, you’ve seen me play Germany before. I just want to give you something to throw you off your game   :-P

Thanks!

It’s really been a long time since Garg’s tournament. As far as I can remember you prefer fleets buy G1 such as 1 ac 1 sub 1 dd then. I still do that.

I’m generally very lenient on non-com edits, but I’m hesitant to allow it here since I already made a move and rolled dice.
