German strategy for the world game

I’m no veteran, but from my experience you can’t really focus on Sealion AND the Soviets.  Sealion OOB is really quite easy but then you’ve neglected the Soviets and turning your attention to that front while holding London can be difficult.  People have mentioned G4 attack on Soviets and had success but I’ve found with my own games that it’s difficult for me to take them out after waiting so long.  So that’s my suggestion, do one or the other, not both

@rock`n:

on page 23 there is written:
germany
“5 IPC if Axis powers control either novgorod or volgograd.”

does it mean, that the german player can get up to 10 IPC when controlling both cities?

No.

@rock`n:

United kingdom/United states

“collect a one-time payment of 5 IPCs if the first time UK/USA forces capture or liberate one of the following territories: normandy, holland or western germany.”

does it mean, that UK/USA can gain up to 15 IPCs or maximum 5 IPCs? for me as not a native speaker of english it is not quite clear.
if someone as UK or USA captures holland he gains 5 IPCs. okay, but when the same player occupies normandy next round or in the same round. what is then? etc.

The payment is received only the first time that one of those territories is captured/liberated by each power.  Nothing further is received for capturing or liberating another of the territories.  Each power may earn only 5 IPCs per game from this NO.

@MarkVIIIMarc:

St Louis Missouri has an excellent mail order place called miniature market.com. When i pre ordered mine they offered to ship it even though i live only twenty minutes away.

Minimarket does tons of ebay and website business with war at sea and other minis.

I live in San Jose. How long would it take from the time they ship it to the time it gets here? I ordered it yesterday, so it should ship tomorrow, on Monday

Man I cannot wait to try these gambits out! Too bad I’m gonna be knee deep in homework and studying by the time I get the game (school starts 8/19 for me).

Combined forces are best and you should never attack without them, but for a single unit , the BOMBER is my weapon of choice. Can strike deep into enemy territory,hit ratio is 2 out of 3, is only slightly more expensive than a fighter. BOMBER with heavy bomber tech and long range aircraft tech can strike Capitals way behind enemy lines and bring opponent to their knees. Only negitive, has no defensive value. Pure offensive weapon. These aircraft won the war in both theaters hands down. if you see your opponent starting to buy lots of bombers, your days might be numbered.

My bet would still be for Russia because even though he does speak well of how Germany is doing he seems to be even more proud of the fact that Russia has held out for such a long time and is still very strong.

mabe in the globle game the us will be like 20/50 for main land us so 20 at peace and 50 at war.
or 20/65

@questioneer:

No, Larry confirmed it will come with the Europe game- NOs Tech and all in June 2010.

Where can we get that confirmation.

I think that Questioneer is referring to comments made by Larry on his site.

I will confirm it as being the plan last I talked with him.  Now that doesn’t mean that WotC won’t screw it up by doing something else, but even that doesn’t seem likely. :roll:

I beginnig to believe they can screw anything up.
