Not enough german infantry to start the game!

Sorry, my misunderstanding. As for the actual amount of pieces your supposed to have, you’ll have to find a place online with the exact amounts.

OK, you got the allies. I’ll get Germany. I’ll put 1 sub at Hallifax Sea, 1 art at Finland. I’ll make a thread in Games Progress subforum.

@ncscswitch:

You ahve to allow each side to see adjacent territories as well.  Might even want to allow them to see what is in “aerial recon” range.

Still makes for an interesting twist, since counter-attacks would be largely unknown…

I agree with point 1, but I’d add something to point 2:  Enemy fighters can attack recon fighters and any AA guns can shoot at recon fighters.

BTW, it’s done often and even has a term: “Fog of War”

I have not done it in Europe, however I have played Classic this way.  (We let you roll for intelligence for each die result of 6 you rolled again and that’s the number of territories that did not border your forces you got “intelligence” on.)

As a reaction to an additional german trans in the baltic or any other placement of ground forces in Eastern Europe an addtional fighter would raise the russian airforce to 2 fig, 1 bmb.

Pro:
Trading countries with airforce assistance minimizes failure in your attack and losses on the enemy counterattack. One additional reusable attack unit is excellent to slow german progress at reasonable costs.
And should it all go wrong there is an additional 4 defending Moscow.

Con:
1 fig is less pieces than 4 inf or 3 art

@lnxduk:

I always played that you can build even if there are enemy units in the seazone.

I think this is the actual rule, but you have to have the battle that turn. Not sure though.

i tried it.  Its failed.  However I think with more practice it could be pulled off.  I just thing the technique eneds to be refined.

@general-6-stars wow 21 years. I think that’s a record lol

The key to defending for the allies to to keep Lenningrad. the 12$ should be spent on 4 infantry to defend the city. If either Lenningrad or Vyborg stand at the end of the first German turn, the allies can use british fighters to attack and destroy the German fleet. So, the 12$ should be spent on a transport for the baltic so the allies have to fight for Lenningrad.
