A discussion on Russia's National Advantages

:-D
This game is all about trying something different, may not always work, but it keeps it interresting :wink:
  It is my experience that no matter how great a strategy may be, the dice will still make you lose  :cry:
Or win  :lol:
So try anything, and just have fun  :-D

There is a sticky thread near the top of this board with links to LHTR.

Some are just cheap, though, like the Superfortresses. Since fighters can’t intecept SBR’s, you can bomb at will with America, while being perfectly content to lose nothing.

@ncscswitch:

5 FIGs not 6.

Germany starts with 6 FIGs, one of which would be lost in Ukraine.

Right, but I was pointing out tha they could build a fighter anyway.  So, assuming they planned too, then they would have 6 fighters again instead of 7.

i would never consider putting my russian fighter in egypt.  what is the purpose, trading it for an artillery, maybe a tank?

Agreed… but I was in no position to continue to push in the Pacific due to needing several rounds to re-establish capital ships to protect trannies (somethign I did not have to do to shift to Europe).  And I reasoned that I could get land units back into play after the Axis income faster via the Atlantic than trying to re-build int eh Pacific.

Basically, my Pacific strat probably would have worked… but I pushed forward too soon.  1 or 2 more builds and then Japan would ahve been gutted in the Pacific… AND in time to have an impact on the Russia front with Germany…

never mind!

normally use 6 but im having a game this weekend and were probably gonna roll for like 3 or 4
