Rules: Submarine Sneak Attack

I believe they made Submarines weak for defense to 1 because every single player would pump out cheap Sub. to boost their navy so this allowed great strength for destroyer + “any” attacks to have the advantage.

The Allies certainly have the option for waiting until turn 2 before stacking Yunnan if Japan fails on J1.  The Chinese will easily have enough units to retake the territory and likely will just use minimal forces if Japan did not issue a DOW on J2.  at the end of their Chi2 turn, they easily could have 14 infantry + 6 art + 1 fighter stacked in Szechwan.  That is an impressive army against the weak Axis forces in Asia.

If this is a no-bid / non-mod game, the Axis still can come back to win the game by capturing Moscow or heading down into the oilfields.  I don’t think that I could come back for a win with BM rules.

Also, assuming the cruiser initiates combat and the defending subs remain, don’t forget that the defending subs get to shoot first even though they are defending. That means the cruiser might not even get to shoot at all…

no, russia,  is not at war in europe.  They can only attack if they are at war with germ or italy.

I guess if Japan falls so do the Kamikaze pilots?

@Cmdr:

You cannot kill them all, if you do, how will you gloat?

Oh yeah.  You have to leave some of them alive so you can point and say “Nyah, nyah, we beat you.”

Thank you Calvin.

I played it. DJensen is correct.
