World domination with tech (no bid)

@windowwasher I’m getting my PC fixed but then I’ll have to download Triple A, thanks again for the advice. I just tested out bids by myself with allies at +30 on the Europe map. The difference was huge, they put a fighter in Scotland and a destroyer in the 110 fleet I believe-with the French cruiser. They also put a sub in the med for Taranto and a tank for Tobruk. The Axis definitely is limited in what they can do the first turn and they don’t have near total domination of the sea right away.

In what way would taking your allies into battle even remotely slow the game?

@barney:

“Bids and Scramble”

IDK “Chutes and Ladders” just came to mind lol

yeah! it’s him!
thank you!

Bid the Artillery Breakthrough for India?

PM me,. then.

At first I couldn’t believe that nobody picked Heavy Bombers.  Then I remembered that in the Europe 40 rulebook they changed Heavy Bombers to where you roll 2 dice and pick the best result so you still only get one hit.  WHAT A CROCK!!  That sounds more like smart bombs to me.  Basically you are getting a better chance of hitting the target by rolling 2 dice instead of 1.  As far as I’m concerned, Heavy Bombers carry a bigger bomb load so they destroy more stuff.

I DO NOT use the new 1940 rule for Heavy Bombers.  In my games, if you get Heavy Bombers then you get to roll 2 dice and get 2 hits (assuming both dice came up 4 or less).  In the case of Strategic Bombing, you can now inflict up to 12 damage points on an IC rather than up to 6.  I guess that is my house rule.

With that in mind, I think Heavy Bombers is the best tech for USA and maybe Germany too.  Although Super Subs would probably be even better for Germany.
USSR = Advanced Artillery or Improved Mechs
UK = Radar, Improved Shipyards
USA = Heavy Bombers, Long Range Aircraft
ANZAC = Increased Factory
Germany = Super Subs, Improved Mechs, possibly Heavy Bombers
Japan = Long Range Aircraft
Italy = Improved Shipyards, War Bonds
