  • @dawgoneit To get the edge as Russia and be able to deny Germany as long as possible access orthe capturing of the key points and citys buy accordingly.

    As I mentioned above Germany came out strong. With an aggressive purchase of 7Infs and 4 Arty you may play into Germanys hands, also the positioning is suboptimal. Feel free to take a look on the Russian Map I posted.
    I bought 12 Infs and have therefore an extra Unit. My Positioning allows me to retreat faster from Novgorod and keeps the option available to recapture it, if for some reasons Germany goes in to soft or the dice went south for Germany to capture Novgorod. But in the end it will fall anyway, so please don’t leave as less units behind then neccessary.

    Try to allways remember to bring your Sub down from sz127. This Sub is very helpful when it comes down to be a Canopener for the US and UK sometimes.
    So try to scuttle it down to Gibraltar and meet with the USN and RN.

    Pulling back the Siberians is allways a good thing, at least for a round.
    Observe carefully and decide on R2 on what are you going to do with them!

    Other then that all good.

    We can go with any one you ant from here, you just have to let me know wich one. You will see the benefits of either one anyway through the game and game explanations.


  • @aequitas-et-veritas we ca go with yours


  • @dawgoneit would you buy differently for germany if we went with the first one? can we go with both and see the difference?

    @dawgoneit would you buy differently for germany if we went with the first one? can we go with both and see the difference?

    I went with a strong Germany opening , banking on loose close to ZERO planes.
    A heavy land build with G on G1 should allways make you cautious with Russia and rather buy 12 Inf on R1 to be save. You can allways add Artys to it, but loosing Arts up North bc they got trapped and or destroyed is very painful.

    the Purchase was fine, nothing wrong with that.

    The positioning is bad. Please place them all at Havaii. Bring everything available to Havaii. That includes that plane from EUS as well. Park it there.

    If Japan would decide to attack this stack it has only a 32% chance of winning.

    What does the US positioning and opposing of the IJN cause?

    -You want to build up Threats
    -You want to be flexibil (USN is parked on a Harbour and has an AB)
    -You want to deny Japan as many NO’s as possible.
    -You want a good position for your Fleet

    Please redo US and do China.

    @dawgoneit UK is most times tricky at the start.
    You are gathering all informations available and try to set slowly the course of this game.

    Your sz 111 Fleet is toast if the German Sub(s) survived the attack on sz 106.

    • If you use your DD, the sub might be gone but even if you retreat to sz 123 with your dmg BB and the CR, the Luftwaffe plus German Fleet will do the res to kill it.
    • You should Def go for the Sub to kill and block sz 110 with at least one Ship.
      So split your two ships if neccessary and try to kinda save one of them.
      Sz 104 is used by a lot of players to park the second ship.

    Your CR in sz 91 Survived.
    That is good. Make something out of it.
    This gives you a variety on thgings you can do with the Meds.

    1. Play the Gibraltar Bastion and merge your Fleet there.
      -Important is to block sz 94 with a DD, reinforce Algeria with the Inf and AA Gun from Malta and clear sz 96 with your Sub and Air.
      -Buy a AB to provide cover and Inf for London.
      -You pull back everything back from Alex. to Egypt and clear Ethiopia with the AES and India units.
      This is a good set up for a long run on Italy.
      The US needs to build a buch of Subs along with a later build Egypt IC and starve Rome to death and neuter Italys Ecconomy.
      -When you get a decent chance on Italys Fleet, kill it in Mid or Late game.

    2. You do the Tobruk attack.
      -if the battle goes south, you will likely loose control in the Meds.
      -German Air provides enough cover for the remaining Italian Forces and will take Egypt soon or later.
      -If it works, you may have secured the Meds, but you need to reinforce Egypt quickly. So you need to build an IC asap. Maybe buy some Inf for London, an IC if you dare or a TT for SA and don’t move your South Africa guys, so you can ship them next round to Egypt.

    3. Do Taranto
      If it works, your Fleet get’s killed and you achieved a standoff.
      Neither side really won and building up will be really slow for UK.
      Taranto in BM is only good if your Planes survives.
      The Italian Fleet might be killed and Italy has not enough money to fix this, but a good player will spent his money anyways in FM to can open something in Russia.

    I personally don’t reccomend any IC builds outside Egypt. Meaning no IC in Persia or Iraq. Try to get your UK play with a Egypt IC only build in shape.

    India:
    Since No J1DoW occurred, save your Ships. The BB is mostly better used for Anzak, so try to maneuver it to sz 54 via south route. And the rest, well ship it Africa to support Egypt first and come maybe back later.
    Keep this in mind that you want a certain flexibilty with this Fleet from sz 39.

    I reccomend to buy as many Units as possible, get the most out of each round to build up a strong defence Force for India to make it as costly as possible for Japan to get it.
