prep for Spain next turn. blocker so I can fire bomb next turn at least once. goal is to keep pressure in the n pac. Russia will withdraw into amur. I don’t want this skirmish to go away with a decisive battle
-
-
@crockett36 are you sure you are strong enough for an attack on neutral powers next turn? That does open up so many territories for the Axis. I usually have seen neutral crush strategies happen much later in a game.
-
I will begin to muster for it. The big thing I see is actually opening up the Middle East for the Axis fast movers. That wouldn’t be good. And would open up Africa and the economic win. So I agree. I’ll assume the traditional move toward the channel.
-
This looks good to me. Northern Asia will demand attention. Mustering for Dday. More RAF and more transports.
-
I agree that Turkey would be the big issue from an attack on the Neutrals as you would have yet another front to defend and it will be tough as America needs to put most of her resources into the Pacific. Maybe the Spain plan will make more sense on later turns.
-
@crockett36 double check you want to send so many units to Burma to die. I think India will fall the following turn if you sacrifice so many men.

Commanders I’m going to pull the trigger tonight. 8ish.

Those italian planes are having trouble.
For the Allies, be careful of the meat grinder in Burma. India will quickly lose in the battle of attrition and you placed so many units there to die next turn. Best to use minimum force to retake.
