Antholin vs. Stalingradski Game One
-
I take it back!
Before I take Russia’s turn - if I bring a single Brit transport and one infantry to Normandy, they can kill all three AA guns stationed there… since you had to redo your turn, I doubt you saw the new possibility.
This is practice, so I want to point things out in these games before we get more competitive.
-
Ah, excellent point sir. What if I were to place 1 Infantry in Normandy from S. France, as an example? Would that allow me to effectively man the defense of Normandy, while sacrificing the AA guns to preserve my 1 Inf?
-
I moved 1 Infantry & 1 Artillery to Normandy, thank you for pointing that out. Here is the final map, and Germany will collect 54 IPC’s at turn 3 end.
Now, finally onto the Russian bear.
-
Russia coming soon! Lots of work and family stuff…
-
Understandable. Take your time, and I’ll see you on the virtual battlefield.
-
Russia 3 purchases 9 Infantry, Artillery, Armor = 37 IPCs.

Your Infantry Divisions put up a mighty fight in Karelia. The Russians prevailed, but lost hundreds of thousands to do so…
Russia collects 39 + 5 NO = 44 IPCs.
Leningrad will fall to the Huns.
Turn 3 is usually an important turn for Japan…

After much deliberation, with little to a lot of worrying, Japan turn III purchases: 2 Subs, 5 Infantry, 1 Air Base= 43 IPC’s spent.

All right I have made all the necessary adjustments, non-com and placement. Air base placed in Siam. Japan collects 49 IPC’s.
Please ignore the Sub into SZ41 from my first post, that was part of an earlier plan and I had forgotten to delete it.
Onward to the good ole USA.
-
Ok. The US wakes up! My Minor ICs become Major.
US 3 purchases 3 Transports, 3 Infantry, Artillery, Fighter, Destroyer = 52 IPCs.

US collects 50 + 20 NO = 70 IPCs.
By the way - nice job with Japan. I especially like the airbase investment you made - saved some boats, gives you more options -
China - a simple turn with no dice - I’ll move, explain, and send the map.
-
China 3 purchases 4 Infantry, saves 1 = 13 IPCs.
Step into Chahar and Hopei… nervously.
Collect 8 + 1 saved = 9 IPCs.

UK 3 London purchases Airbase, Sub, 5 Infantry = 36 IPCs.
UK Calcutta purchases 4 Infantry, 2 Artillery, Mech Infantry = 24 IPCs. The last big splurge.
