Generally pacific builds consists of a 2 to 1 ratio of subs-destroyer. Following turn is 5-6 bombers. This forces Japan to start building fleet instead of troops for India/China crush.
I just had to give som additional thumbs up fo9r this comment :D Buying other combat ships than subs, dds (Or CW + ftrs) is rarely correct. the 2 to 1 ratio shos that sean knows how fodder works and how it is the most important thing in these battles.
The only reason to stop buying the subs is if japan for some reason dont respond with fleetbuilding and only buys planes instead. But then you should win anyways :D
which is why i said that it didn’t work against a too planeheavy japan. on theory, the DDs + other surface ships ofc needs to be enough to stop all the planes of japan + 2 rounds of plane only builds of japan.
What would prevent japan from attacking your fleet of subs-destroyers with air and a few destroyers. With 20+ planes they can whipe out your whole fleet with minimal losses as subs cant even hit the planes.
I normaly go for a carrier heavy fleet followed by subs destroyers for attacking power. Ideally i want my carriers to bait an early attack from japan that i can crush in the counter and get his carriers and BB out of the way so anzac and UKP can clean up the rest.
Global Team game when it comes out!

C. WHO THE F*** CARES!!! LETS JUST PLAY (jk option) -
dont care just make sure people how dont on pac and euro 40 can play(me :wink:)
-
A.
One way or another, as long as every player knows the rules and has some way of knowing the map and position and pieces, we’re good to go. :-D
Most of us will probably have the board game at nearly the same time.
I think Germany goes first, so hopefully I get my game about as early as everyone else…. But if I don’t, I’ll find some way of making a G1 :lol:
-
hopefully by the weekend of the 24th of august we will get it. if not then we shall wait.
-
Yeah me too, I wouldn’t know where to start.
You don’t have to know how ABatlemap modules work. If you know how to use Paint.NET, or are interested in figuring it out, and can be meticulous and detail-oriented, that is all you need.
Don’t feel obligated at all… I’m just sayin. If I don’t find the help, that is fine - I will still try to do it all myself, it will just take me a few - to several weeks longer to get it finished.
-
i can try and iof you dont like rejeect it. if this speeds up ill do it.
-
If it’s not too late, I shall also be ANZAC and China.
-
were gonna see if more people come. if not you may because you are a minor country of france.
-
I’d be willing to sceede control of Italy to i-rock in exchange for playing as China
-
Deal.
USSR: Proud American
Italy: i rock
France: UN Spacy
US: maverick_76
UK: Funcioneta
Germany:Gamerman01
Japan:
ANZAC:
China:Clyde85 -
whens this going to start? aug 24th?
-
hopefully the weekend of the 24th. by then we should all have our games.
-
bringing this thread back to life. Since We are dropping I propose the following Sides. We may not have 1 for each country but hopefully this works.
Since the US/USSR are going to be neutral fro awhile they should have a minor power. So i propose.
USSR: Proud American
Italy: i rock
France: UN Spacy
US: maverick_76
UK: Funcioneta
Germany:Gamerman01
Japan:Clyde85
ANZAC: Proud American
China:maverick_76.This way each neutral power shall have something to do until they enter the game. Clyde you got a good deal I gave you Japan for puny China. Let me know how you feel.
Edit: If anyone new wants to join just say so and well add you.
-

-

-
I’m curious what Gamerman01 and Irock’s strategy will be? There has been discussion of various strategy’s and opening moves. I’m wondering if they will consider them. Also, will there be a chance for the peanut gallery to critic moves as they are played after each nation’s turn?
-
1. If you want to jpoin ask
2. Since this will be played here if ‘peanut gallery’ wishes to review we invite them to. -
