Where Can I Order Game From California?

I’ve been playing a Europe 1940 game against myself, trying as the Axis to win (I haven’t been quite successful enough in my last 3 games).

This the closest and furthest Germany has managed to get to Moscow while still preserving most of the Western Front and holding the UK and US back (the Italians were set to dominate in Africa before bad dice sunk that hope).

What can the Axis do in the next few turns to achieve victory?

Thank you! Seems like G2 is better than G3.

Yeah and you also don’t get the soviet far east units later.

Karl is right though, the Americans have a huge boost in comparison to what they are in the global game; and better yet, it’s 100% focused on Europe.

Kill Itlay First, start with  Taranto or Tobruk.  Subs and Convoy raid the crap out of the axis when and as you can.  Hold on for dear life with Russia.  If moscow looks like you can’t hold it,  pull back for a round; and keep the fight alive.  Merge with middle east forces if you have to.

it is bc it opens the door for a german blitz.

key trick isnt the infantry thing thats too slow.  daves move is to grab the tank off africa to add another one, and use the yugoslavia retreat trick with both germany and italy in sucession

@jim010:

[You can’t block the G3 London attack.

If you get luck and survive with some UK ships, then you could stand in front of the Germans.  But I doubt it would prevent the Germans from pushing through - and that scenario wil not be the norm.  Likely you won’t have any ships in range except for the Gibraltar fleet.

Oh no? It happened in the game I played last night. Germany got crappy dice rolling and the UK player took a bunch of risks, managed to take down the German AirForce. That really changed the game and made it pretty much impossible for Germany to invade England. Amazing though Germany managed to sneak a fleet across into Mexico and distracted America for another 2 turns defending itself. It was decided after bad rolling in Russia that the allies would win out even with Amercia distracted and the game was called an allied victory.

@katfishkris:

try your your local comic book store.  i have got the last two releases on the day they came out from mine.

Shipping always takes time, it just the nature of the beast.  We are shipping the games as soon as they arrive (1-2 days before release date) so they arrive as soon as possible.  Im sure other stores are doing just the same.

Support your local game store if you can to get it on D-Day.

I pre-ordered from Field Marshall Games a few weeks ago.  I think the only option was standard shipping.  Should I expect to get the game on Wed or Thur I guess then?

Thanks

AA42. Very little errata.

FYI … I have started a new thread on this subject. (Air-Naval Bases)
