you know what should be changed? WTF does the US start with so many mech inf?

Can you think of a more useless unit for the Americans, and they have 4 of them! Does Larry mean to honor the historical contribution of GMC, or what?

Regardless of the decision–Sealion or Barbarossa–the key is simple: Strategic bombing runs. Build bombers early as the Germans, and commit to SBR for as long as you can.

In the West, London is close enough that you can use your fighters and tacs as cover. In the East, Russia cannot afford to build enough fighters for an effective defense (if they attempt this, you will roll over them on the ground).

As the SBR rules are currently designed, SBR’s are an ace-in-the-hole for Germany.

Trade border territories with the Germans for as long as you can, and build absolutely nothing but infantry as Russia.

The most dangerous part about a successful Sealion is that the Russian player gets it in his/her head to be aggressive. Don’t. You’ll get smushed, and face the same issues you’re supposed to be laying at the Germans’ feet (overextended supply lines, logistics).

Germany will have an income pushing 90 IPCs after sacking London. Don’t be silly.

Keep in mind, I’m assuming the sub > 125 was illegal. If I’m wrong, or you wish to do something else with it, obviously, go for it, and make any necessary corrections to Russia’s income.

I’m embarrassed I don’t know this for sure… but I don’t think you can NC a sub into a seazone with an enemy dd (as you did with sz125).

Obviously, tell me if I’m wrong.
