Greeting from China. First 1942.2 game of my entire life. That’s true. I wasn’t going to try if not for the tournament. But I decided to give it a go last min. I’ve played plenty of previous versions though. G40 being my favorite so far.  Still too early to say the winner. I almost lost it because of Caucasus in this turn. Anything could happen in dice game. I feel extremely lucky so far in terms of killing the bombers. If you still have 3 more bomber, it will be a different story.

Little edit. Hope you don’t mind.

No problem. :)

The American tank in Karelia held strong! Back to UK

[Black_Elk]

Oh right on, judging from the way the reds just took back Shanghai I’d say you’re playing with the home field advantage.
:-D

It’s an interesting, perhaps somewhat sad commentary on the OOB balance and Victory conditions when Axis can lose 60 ipcs in bomber TUV in the first 4 rounds, and still feel like they could maybe pull something out hehe. If the Allies sustained similar loses they’d be toast for sure, but Axis have the oppertunity to take risks, fail miserably, and still recover.

I moved my main stack to Belo for the time being, the potential for American armor to run amuck on the eastern front with can openers, encouraged me to a more defensible position.
Bought another bomber.

I’m off to work, but I’ll catch you next round

Yup, good move. You are obsessed with bombers, ain’t you? lol They can really cripple russian’s economy if not terribly unlucky.

[Black_Elk]

Haha yeah a little bomber crazy. I typically purchase 1 per round until I have 4-6 total, to help in the endgame. I find they’re really useful with G, more to prevent the Allies from splitting their fleets up too much. They’re better at fleet hunting than for SBR. They keep dieing on me, so I’m not sure whether I’ll risk many more bombing runs lol
:-D

[Black_Elk]

I’ll be interested to see what the US does with that huge pile of cash they acquired last round. The furious fighting around Anhwei has definitely been keeping the Japanese on their toes!

Yet another German bomber killed by Russian AA fire!

To add insult to injury, the planned assault on Ukraine was nearly undone when a full air wing of BF109 scheduled to lead the attack was mysteriously held back at airfields in Belo, apparently never receiving the orders to engage. Fortunately the Wehrmacht was able to score a lucky one, to make of for the combat move fiasco.

His failures to the fatherland utterly complete and undeniable, Hermann Göring has just locked himself in the bathroom and put a Luger in his mouth… Bang!
:-D

After such a string of terrible defeats in the skies over the Soviet Union, Germany has finally switched gears and invested in a massive armor expansion. Tank columns rolling steadily off the line. One shining ray of hope amidst the otherwise dismal news from the front, the raids on London were rather more successful this round than last.

Back to you Churchill
