A lot of posters seemed stunned at this scenario, never scene it ever happen or even could happen. Now that I mulled it over last night and looked at the rules and so forth it is very obvious to me why no one has ever scene this scenario. Because the scenario makes no logical sense.
Italy DOW on Russia and moves in 2 tanks into Eastern Poland.
Russia is now at war with Italy and can DOW on Germany at the start of their next turn, turn 3.
Germany on Turn 3 does not DOW on Russia and just non combats into Eastern Poland.
Russia at the start of Turn 3 DOW on Germany and off we go.There is no logical reason why Russia would not DOW on Germany at the start of Turn 3, none.
Heck you could argue that it makes no logical sense that Germany did not DOW on Russia at the start of G3 since Italy brought Russia into the war and Russia WILL DOW on Germany on R3.
Hi PainState,
From my perspective, if I was planning on doing a G3 Barbarossa AND I wanted to drive towards the south, then yes, it makes sense to not DOW. My stack will be together except for the minimum required mobile units and maybe 1 AAA in Poland so Russia doesn’t attack Poland to get their NO for occupying an Axis territory. But E. Poland will be real strong because the German air will be there and maybe bombers will also be in range of a raid on the Moscow factory. Also, 5 IPCs is more income than I’d probably get as Germany on the 1st turn.
There are a few disadvantages of course. 1, Russian blockers can’t be attacked. 2, the Scandinavian units are behind. But for me that’s ok, I just use them to lay siege anyways. I never expect to get Moscow on turn 6 anymore. I assume that the UK/Anzac and that lone French fighter are going to get to Moscow.Â
How to invade nenetsia from germany??
-
via landing craft if the uk is stll in play and has tons of fighters.
-
what is this thread about exactly… ?
-
i need help in my g40 game im germany and want to in vade russia. through nenetsia is the best option. the oly prolblem is when i build transports,the uk player uses fighter to kill them
-
Then this doesn’t seem like a very good option then. OR option two build a gazillion airbases and base 3 planes at each so can scrample 15 or so.
-
Forget Nenetsia then …
Poland, Eastern Poland, Western Ukraine, Bryansk, Russia.
5 turns for infantry to travel that.
It takes just as long (Or longer) to build your transports and move them up to Nenetsia after loading, then from there through to Vologda and then Russia and it costs a LOT more because not only do you have to build the transports, you HAVE to build a fleet to support them (or they just get sunk, as you noticed).
-
the only thing is russia is loaded w/ inf and fighters and is now buying tanks. while uk and usa isj biulding up in britain.

Turn 1
- Build an aircraft carrier a destroyer and a sub on Germany Turn one and place them in SZ 112. 2) Land 2 ftrs on the carrier. 3) Make sure you have minimum 3 ftrs (or tacs) on Western Germany to scramble. 4) Don’t Sacrifice your battleship, use it to protect your carrier. 5) make sure you sink as much of the U.K. fleet as possible.
Turn 2
- Take cash from the Plunder of France and build 7 transports in SZ 112. 2) Make sure you move your original transport there as well. 3) Make sure you have 8 Infantry and 8 Art (or whatever) to load on to these transports. (Hopefully the U.K. will build tons of troops to defend against Sea-lion). 4) Keep your Naval screen intact.
Turn 3
- Move from SZ 112 to SZ 127 with loaded transports. 2) Unload into Nenetsia 3) comence laughing.
Turn 4
- Who knows. 2) Question why you were laughing on turn 3.
