    • RE: UK Struggles

      Thanks everyone. I played today but as only UK as we had a new fifth player join in who lost it for allies as he played Russia. Player is a RISK player and doesn’t understand the defence concept of Russia. Went for 4 territories R1 and rolled bad in two of those battles. Handed Moscow to Germany on a platter. The fighter concept would have worked if a better player was playing Russia. Or so it would seem. Although I still need to find a balance between fighters and infantry in India to hold longer.

      And I would also very much appreciate an explanation on bidding. It doesn’t make sense to me as I tried to explain the concept to my knowledge but I don’t think I fully get the whole concept. From what I gather the lowest bid plays Allies. But do other bids still count? Meaning if I were to bid 11 and you had 12 and you let me have it, do you get your bid of 12 as well or is it just me with 11?

      As you guys can tell we are still a group of greenhorns but are improving every game. I’m seeming to be the player improving the most but I am also the only player looking at videos and reading strategies on these forums.

    • UK Struggles

      Hello everyone. Very first post here. Myself with my group who play have learned from 1941 and just started playing this better version. We are usually 4 with one player controlling UK and Russia. Next game is my turn to play the two and I am asking for some advice. We are still new to the whole game especially this more complex one compared to 1941 but we all have the same issue. UK is spread out and gets it’s Atlantic navy wiped out before taking turn one. With the exception of SBRing Germany, what is another good Atlantic strategy? We all have waited for US Atlantic help while playing UK but have seen an Axis victory 4/4 times. We are all new and I know there has to be a better way. Also will take advice in terms of the Pacific situation for UK as well as Africa. Thanks.
