I want to go again or at least rewind to Japan 2 and see what would happen if I had gone with my original plan.
-
So you’re conceding?
-
I don’t think I can get England back and without it, I need Moscow and there’s not a chance in hades of that happening before you get Rome or Paris.
I’ve been kicking myself since round 3, I should have ignored the American fleet (just soaked the 14 convoy damage for a couple of rounds) and taken out India. India is the bane of my life.
-
Do want to play again, however.
-
I can kick you out of Spain easy enough by dropping about 20 units into Spain, but again, Spain is not a victory city.
-
Yeah Spain is a deterrent to keep you spending money in the west front, I think you know it :)
Anyway thanks for the game, I learnt many things from you in this game, and that was my main concern.
Yes, I think we could re-do the game, but if you want so, I’d like you to redo it after US3, when US navy is in sz6, to see if taking India instead of clearing sz6 will really help the cause. Up to you! Anyway thanks for the game!
I have some ideas for Axis myself that could make the fall of UK more proficent, here’s my idea:
Instead of crushing India FAST with Japan, be conservative. Build your economy and keep the americans at bay.
Clear China, Push the Russian starting J1, try to get full Indonesia J3, “neutralize” India without investing all your airfoce, in a slow way: Get FIC and MAL, build 2minors there, buy 6inf each round (18ipcs).
You need a small navy around Indonesia (I’d say 1cv 1bb 1cv 2bb 2fig) to keep Anzac and India out of the sea, and you need to build CVs and some DDs untill you run out of starting planes. This will keep america at HAW or CAR for AT LEAST 8-9 turns.
At that point Germany and Italy will really WIN the game in Euro if US doesn’t spend money there, with London and Cairo fallen, Italy earning 40+ IPCs, Germany earning in the 70+.Also, India will not be able to help Russia, cause you reduced their income to 5 at BEST (with 3 convoyed probably) and you’re slowly bringing 6inf/round SHN>BUR.
Try this with your skills, and tell me how you feel the game will go.
