@crockett36 Gentlemen,
This is my proposal for R2
@crockett36 you all have 12 hours. Seems pretty vanilla.
The movement back to sakha is supposed to draw Japan’s gaze north, pinning troops in Manchuria. Obviously they are intended to join up with the marines in SFE.
@surfer didn’t see your post. appreciate the analysis. I’m inclined to turtle, but am open to aggression. The weakness caused by the combination of the high bid and the bad luck in 111 opens up potentialities that need to be explored.
@crockett36 I agree. Be defensive in Russia, and look for the cracks to open elsewhere.
Despite the crippled Luftwaffe, the nazis still has a lot of spunk. Go turtle.
I haven’t studied the map yet, but usually anything you stack in Leningrad R2 is dead. Advisable therefore to stack in Belarus and maybe build 3 inf in Leningrad.
@trulpen we need to study map. He won’t have the force multipliers in the attacks. Defense will be more deadly
I need to do the Moscow calculator too
@crockett36 how about this. I think i can keep leningrad, ukraine for one more turn. and let the russian figs defend yunnan. All of that and still turtle back to Moscow? Am I right?

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
So this is what I estimate the battle for Moscow to look like if we turtle. Smolensk vs Vologda.
@crockett36 we win btw
@crockett36 what is the estimated battle?
@crockett36 smolensk vs Vologda
@crockett36 said in ABH and crockett36, (A+69) tutor game:
@crockett36 smolensk vs Vologda
8 tanks, 1 mech next turn, all dive bombers turn after, all bombers turn after. Sound correct?
@crockett36 sorry, that was projected German purchases. Russian man spam.

It basically looks good. I reiterate. Would by only inf saving 2 IPC. Means R will be able to build 13 inf instead of 12 next turn.
Italy can’t can-open the Baltic now, which is good.
I would prefer to keep stuff in Belarus and W Ukraine, keeping pressure on E Poland. This is not so important though, since R can’t force the hand anyway if/when G stacks there.
However, Ukraine is rather safe and if G wants to trade 2 mech, 1 tank for 3 inf, then it’s good for us.
The air to Yunnan might be good, but not sure it’s needed. J has positive odds, but negative TUV, anyway. Think the air might be better in Caucasus, helping with the crush of Iraq.
UK will be able to swing in 4 inf, 2 fig, 1 sb for a strafe. Maybe want to take that down to 4 inf, 1 fig, 1 sb to avoid killing all the inf.
I’d move the sub to z110 in order to salvage it and join it with the allied fleet later. It will make a bigger impact then as convoy disrupter in the Med and possible can-opener than becoming fish food next turn.
Regarding the battle expectation for Moscow I still think it’s too early to extrapolate. I mean, it’s not really constructive since it may change a lot. Time is better invested in boiling down the overall strategy.
