But the main think is that US will only be “screwing around” in the pacific ocean if he isn´t able to keep the Trn´s….  (he should build facory in Sinkiang in addition to this.

It´s a better idea to attack French indo china on UK1 with 3 inf, 1 fig, send destroyer after trn send trn into philliphine SZ, to block J1 reinforcements of Frenchindo china meaning India can´t fall untill at best (from Japans point of view) in turn 3 probably later if reinforced with IC and or russian inf.

i have been playing Pacific a couple of times, and we conclude that it´s not a good game.

Becuse:

1. Only the Japanese player can have a strategy, all others have to react to what Japan does….
2. nothing can stop Japan from Taking India, if he moves everythiing against it.

Is it just us, or are we missing something?

yes that is a drawback of the tactic…

I need the range to threathen the trns at sea, that means US and UK needs to put some IPC into building defensive ships to defend them.

Anyone else then me trying out “new” tactics?

Currently trying a Luftwaffe tactic against Sankt.

Aimed at keeping germany allive with massive air superiority…  (round 2 lufwaffe consists of 4 Bmb, 6 Figs)

hit the us fleet wit all you got, if the ods are god for mutual destruction if you really want to stop the island hoping, personaly i see island hooping as a late in the game problem…

6 bid i think will become the norm in half bid purchase system…

Then i know, thanx.

Following happen  (se Sankt vs Nix game for specifics):

I have the german navy in SZ3, 1 trn, 1 dd, 2 ss.  Sankt hits it with a BB,trn AF, does 2 hits, i choose to kill trn, DD.

Now, i submerge my Subs, can he be still retreat to SZ2 or must he stay in SZ3?  (rules seems to be unclear)

Im don´t want to be a dick about it, but i think the same thing can happen again (in other games), since it was a bait……

where do you want to send them? Brazil?

US precence in Africa on US 1 in easily countered in G2. (us ships sunk, Algeria retaken.)i

Fallout 1 och 2, not great grafic (kinda bad) but a very good RPG game.

I will hereby apologize for being wrong on this issue, and sorry if i made it worse by thinking i was right.

One final question about this thought:

Can you move a AA gun aboard a Trn in combat phase? (and then in non-combat move it of?)  (i guess it´s a no, since AA gun cant move in combat sequence, but want to be sure)

Additonal, US round 3 they can set up a factory in Alaska moving the entire fleet there (if you have bought some carriers for defense) and then buy 2 heavy naval pieces/turn, sitting next to japan…

This can only be done if Japan doesn´t have enought strength to wipe you if he attack, but normaly people tend to buy defensivly when purchasing navy.

The best KJF that can be mustered from my mind is as follows (in short, the perfect details depends on opposition).

Russia, stacks 6 inf in Buryatia on R1, allso moves 2 Arm to Yakut. this is done to attack machuria R2.
2 Inf from Novo to Sinkiang, to defend it.

UK build factory in India R1, attacks french indo china with 3 inf(india) and 1 fig sz35  (65% succes in wiping it and having atleast the fig remaining)
DD SZ35 kills Japan Trn, UK trn sail to SZ49 to prevent Japan reinforments to reach french indo china J1.

USA builds factory in Sinkiang, and build fleet in pacific. (should still put a little cash on a trn or two to send to reinforce UK and make raids on germany.

Russia will in the begining have to face Germany quite alone, but when japan is pushed back of Asia continent and US navy appears they will be able to get reinforcements from india and Sinkiang (figs, arms, etc).

this is my thoughts on a usable KJF strat. (Russia will get more income then if you do KGF, and that will help holding germany at bay)

well Zoey, that is kinda sophisticated think to make work.

You would need to first make the water vaiporize to become steam, then you need the steam to go thrue a turbine, and the turbine is plugged into a generator that in turn creates electricity, so as you see it will be kinda big, adn expensive and would reqire a lot of water……

No, but it could be a good idea to build a couple of extra fighters and/or bombers, so that when the US navy comes, counter attack them with AF.

Well if you want sweet wine i would recomend Tokaj wine (from Hungary), it´s very good.
