Basically if you can´t stop the 4 or 5 trns UK is toast on G3. (or atleast have a 60%+ chance of it…

A thought; if we do a triplea style bid 9 ipc.

I take 8 to Axis buys a sub put it in sz8, and attack the UK BB,trn and russian sub with 2 subs, 1 bmb, 1 fig  (i should kill the fleet and maybe have the bmb and fig walk away.)

Then i spend my cash on a AC and 3 trns (total of 4)

bring BB to Gibraltar, and Trn to Gibraltar

UK wouldn´t be able to “block” the german navy on Uk1, witch should make for a invasion o G2… of 8 Units + All AF. (6 Figs and 1 bmb) (10 units if US doesn´t sacrifice Destroyer.)

Wouldn´t the UK be in grave danger then?

Well my response to this mess was to put my UK fleet in SZ6 (BB, trn) and build a AC, put 2 Figs on it and a Destroyer.
Russia moves the Sub there to.

US sacrfices its fleet with 2 trn to SZ8 of load the units in UK, put Fig and Bmb there.

us blocks spain sz with a des (you could use uk trn in canada for this but then your 1 arm less in Uk)

The reason to do this is not to prevent a consilidation but to prevent a landing from the southern navy (in our game we use tripleA ladder rules(axis bid 9) and Jlord bought a trn in med)

And Russia moves into Europe with everything she got.  (take karelia, ukraine belorussia) (germany has only 1 art and 4 inf in eastern, and 5 inf,5arm in western).

So a landing attempt on UK will be really expensive, but i think he will turn around and attack Karelia instead.)  (and will then suffer a landing in western or karelia)

It´s about some EU decree that “national” food and wine names are trade marked to the region, Grecce have it´s goat chease, Scotland it´s hagis etc etc…

Well and IC in India is allmost allways a good Idea in my opinion.

But for you to build it on your own on UK1 you need to kill the 2 Inf´s in french Indo china (and of course that little trn) And USA must follow suit and build an IC in Sinkiang.

And Russia must threthen Manchuria with 6 inf and 2 arm in Yakut.

With National advantage this get´s even better, you still will want to kill French indo china to stop up Japan´s offensive…

And overall i dislike the “screw” india thing…  It was a part of the UK, and it was defended.

I will dig it up towmorrow.  (becuse i think i wasn´t in such a “bad” place)

But im using triple a for the future i think, goes soo much faster (but it´s funn to type sometimes too)

School is starting soon so now i´ll have more time for this…  And i seriously have to fix my stats…  (maybe play Allied more  :-D  )

So, Sankt it has become a matter of “honor” right ?  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:    :-D

Welll, he didn´t have more then 1-2 inf in wetern and no troops in Norway…  so that was kinda pointless…

And it isn´t a good idea to buy 4-5 BB it´s a waste of cash of course… (i just wanted to try)

Is this really such a “common” problem that´anyone really need sto spend time looking it up?

@ncscswitch:

I had a game a while back where UK bought 5 BB’s, and all Germany had to do was buy 1 sub to block all 5 support shots :-)

And Switch that is just plain rule thumping/game breaking  :roll:    :wink:

damn, defeated by the “it´s in the rules” argument….

Sankt that is soo old…  :-P

If you like sweet wine try the Tocay wine from Hungary (south east hungary).

It should be that Japan get´s all Russia IPC alone, since Japan did fall first they give the cash to USA, the Japan take Russia and get´s Russias cash.

Easy  ;)

You can´t say that.

the case is in Baltic there is a German “enemy” sub.

You want to move in 2 subs and a BB and a transport to do an ampibious assult.

If you move the 2 subs and BB into Baltic ALL ships have to attack that lonly German sub.

There is no choice. (becuse the RULES say so)

(the transport follow but stay out of the fight, if the german sub is destroyed the transport can attack land)

Hope you understand  :)

And all IPC you had are given to the player that takes your capitol.

So short answer is no becuse you have no cash.

The battleship can take the hit AND return fire.  (only exeption if it´s a damaged battleship and it takes the hit, then it dies before returning fire as normal)

I haven´t read thrue the whole thread so this might have been mentioned earlier:

Germany should have continued to Bomb RAF airfields and not stop and go terror bombing London becuse a lone american bomber bombed citizens of Hamburg…

That would have cracke the RAF compleatly within 6 months, and an German Invasion would have ensured in UK.

Warhammer 40k is what i think is most fun…

Scraping togheter an Eldar Ulthuwe strike force….  (we will se if it´s ready before they change the rules  ;)  )

If you don´t send 2 arm to Yakut , there is no point in putting 6 inf in Buryatia, since you have to pull them back on R2 (or they will die).

Depending on your action with the rest of the allies the 6 inf in Buryatia can be gone on J1, and the whole Russian front have a big trouble since you bought 4 arm 1 art.

And the chance is that you will lose some units in ukraine and that Germany will hit it with all it can to get rid of the Russian Arm.

Lost all games here i belive… (5 or 6)

But that is mainly becuse im trying to find a viable Lufwaffe strát with germany.  (and it´s getting better)

So im an average player on the net (it´s ok if you call me a poor player, untill i prove you wrong)  :-P , but looses 1 out of 5 in our game club and at conventions.

You can put 2 Figs that attacked UK BB in gibraltar in Norway….  (not saying it´s a “good” plan, but i guess that is the way to do it if you needed/wanted to)
