@JWW:
sorry to “but” in here, I was curious and now that I looked at the map I am really scratching my head.
How did you two get to this juncture? Russia controls FRANCE?? How the hell did they ever get to france? I have no idea how you guys will finish this one.
Yeah, don’t know if this one will get done. Lol! Waaaaaay too many units on the board now.
Russia is in France because I had to chase them down after LL abandoned Moscow. He used a very clever move and loaded them on US trans to get them out of Asia. But As I recall he had to take Fra with Russia to land UK ftrs for defense. At the time I couldn’t prevent a 1-2-3 on France and hold (Japan was extremely weak and had no Eu presence) so I had to pull back to Berlin and Rome. I think the only way he could hold was to actually take with Russia. I was hoping he’d wait for UK where I think I could have been able to counter with a Ger-Ita 1-2, but can’t really remember now. lol!
@LuckyLindy:
Its been a very unusual game with some extreme tactics. in my opinion the outcome here is in doubt but DM is certain this is an axis win all the way, right DM?
Definitely an unusual game. I think I have (or had) the advantage, but at this point a “certain win” is too much to say. There are just too many units on the board. I don’t think I can lose, but I’m not sure I can win either. My stance has been based on maintaining my ~500 unit lead in land/air ipc, we’ve been pretty much even on per turn ipcs for who knows how long. So I haven’t lost ground, but I don’t think I can ever push the Allies out of Fra and I don’t think the Allies will ever get Ita or Ger. The risk is just too big to make any attacks (for either side) IMO, especially since we need to rely on 1-2 type attacks. If you get even odds okay, but if your first attack skews down it could really cripple either one of us.
I’ve tried to slow play a couple of ideas, I was really hoping the Indian IC would have allowed a J Navy, but you nipped that in the bud right away and now its just a inf/arm pump. I was also slow playing a plan in Europe, and I did take Nor, but I’m not sure it makes all that much difference. Not sure if I can do what I wanted to.
J on the way…
