We need an allied playbook.

@crockett36 Ambitious! I would like to see how both Taranto and a sz 92 stack is orchestrated (because I’d like to use it!). I read your comment and began looking at the start up map on Trip. A to see how that could work. It seems like a “bridge too far” if you know what I mean…

@Guam-Solo Sorry G, I meant in succession. I would try a Med strategy employing 1st the sz92 stack and then the Taranto raid.

@crockett36 in successive games playing against the bots.

@crockett36 ahh…so not both in the same game ? I was wondering how that would work :)

Good action here Rock On

@crockett36 Well that makes more sense…but for a moment in my bewildered imagination you were the greatest tactical genius in the community to execute a Round 1 Taranto and finish with a SZ 92 stack. :relaxed:

That would be more like the miracle of Jehosophat, who put the singers in the front line and “who praised the beauty of holiness, instead of shouting out a battle cry.”

@crockett36 Lol - yes! So many Biblical references can be made. I was thinking more like the loaves and fishes: stretching your limited resources to feed the multitude of your hungry ambition.

@Argothair Hey, I was just wondering if you knew that I read your Russian strategy on Youtube under allied playbook game

@crockett36 Where is that link?

I’m having to adjust my strategic objectives. Previously it has been 1. Atlantic 2. London 3. Moscow 4. Egypt 5 Bombay. In that order. I’m considering switching to 1. Atlantic 2. Moscow 3. Egypt 4. Bombay 5. London. My reasoning is that if I have control over the Atlantic, London should be an easier rescue than Moscow because of the proximity.

Also, in my argumentum ad absurdum experimentation, I have tried abandoning Bombay. I’m playing a game right now with myself where I abandoned Hono and save Sidney and Bombay. I’m considering a game where I abandon Moscow. People say Moscow will fall to a Ger who knows what he’s doing. So why not try a game where you just don’t care. Instead you use the resources available to make significant gains. Just a thought. Worth a computer sim at least, if not a triplea game. I’ll call it my crazy ivan.

@crockett36 yeah, but you should not abandon moscow just because.
You should allways try to slow down Axis, so that your Allies are in Position to Strike down Axis or fortify key positions.

just like to experiment. I won’t try that against you.

a non fortified Moscow has the advantage of giving the Jerries the impression it will be a piece of cake ergo they send less troops, other ventures seem promising, etc

remember, repeating the same mistake over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.

@crockett36 I like the out of box thinking. Are you going to detail what the other Russian ventures are? I mean, we can take some good guesses…

Scandinavia! China, the Balkans through Turkey are my ideas.

does anyone have recommendations for screen recording software? mobizen is great for android. I’m looking for windows.

read a sticky about the Japan playbook and incidentally he said send Bombers to Moscow immediately.

Latest efforts at the playbook is to not worry about the allied income but knock the axis income down by strat bombing and convoying the axis income. By the way has anyone got America to 85 and how?

In BM USA can get over 100. OOB, you might require The Philippines and a couple of money islands. Harder to do it in Europe.
