My recommendation is to hit him hard in Normandy and see about landing only a couple infantry in Norway. Taking Norway loses him those IPCs plus the Scandinavian trade bonus, which will hurt his economy by at least a Panzer purchase per turn, and he can’t afford to split his attention so many ways. Just like he is trying with Russia, give him a death by a thousand little cuts. If you can convoy raid him (if you are playing with raids, that is), then you can knock him down even more. Of course, I may just be a bit overaggressive– I can’t see what all you can, but anything to stop the Scandinavian bonus is a good thing for beleaguered Russia.
Which Ruleset do you use when playing Europe 1940?
-
I can’t decide which ruleset to use, but I’m leaning toward OOB + Alpha scrambling.
What do the officers on the forums think?
-
I use OOB rules.
I bought this game in November and play one on one against my usual A&A opponent.
We’ve played seven games so far and the axis have won four…allies three. So we think it’s pretty balanced…the only thing we don’t like is the starting IPC’s for Italy. You can’t buy sh*t with that and they lose half of their starting fleet before it’s their turn.
But since the axis have won four out of seven it hasn’t really affected the overall outcome.
