@bobbarossa Nice buys. I`m learning. Some mistakes I will do just once.
In my first game I didnt noticed that uk and usa can make a double turn. So I lost berlin ^^
Now I will lose UK. I really dont know how this will effects the game.

Well, I’d say you’re learning pretty fast! You haven’t made any errors yet. The Egypt factory just happens to be one of my go buttons for Sea Lion. A lot of folks will let you get away with that. And your split buy with US was great, forced me into this awkward Japanese turn instead of letting me hammer Java like I wanted to :( . We’ll see what the dice have to say. I’m still banking up some lucky rolls ;) .

@bobbarossa awww what a sneaky jap build. First I wondered. Dirty!!
But I guess: If I put an anzac dd into sz 37, your 5 transport could not reach india, right? :blush:

Correct, dd in 37 saves India for this round. The advantage to having my partial fleet in 37 already is that it prevents you from being able to block while also declaring war on Japan as UK/ANZAC, which is the typical Sea Lion response (US is going to war next turn anyway, might as well get the money). If you had built more heavily in the pacific round 1, I would have declared war J2 and paved a path that you couldn’t block. But, alas, trade offs!

@brxxx said in L21 BM3 Brxxx (Allies +15) vs BobbaRossa (Axis):

@bobbarossa why its typical response to declare war on Jap with UK?
And what does “alas” mean? :)

now I pray for the aa in UK !! :)

Care to scramble?

The why was my parenthetical before: “(US is going to war next turn anyway, might as well get the money)”. London falling automatically brings the US into the war, so there is no downside to UK/ANZAC declaring war on Japan and they get to collect their national objective bonus money. And if, for whatever reason, London doesn’t fall you’ve already won the game anyway.

Alas just basically means “oh well”. An expression of forlornness.
