I like to send the UK Bomber to Yakut, personally. From here you can move it to India to add threat, fly back to Europe to add threat, SBR Japanese factories...
Regarding flying bombers East: Yes, I sometimes try something like that myself. Bombers have a great range, the extra movement and versatility to do bombing...
An update, just finished another game and I recieved another beating. Left WE open for one turn because I got cocky after blocking the Brit navy with a sub...
I personally think that early bulking in Karelia is not great. Just as you said, Russia pushes on the southern frontier and gains IPCs. If Germany could...
... Play the other side. If you want to improve your Axis game, play the Allies for a few games. The difference in perspective can be a big help in improving...
Maybe thats what I need to do is drain the allies more of IPC's and take my time with Germany more. It is so much harder to work in tandem with the axis than...
I'm not really advanced in A&A, but saw many play lines and added my theoretical bent to it... I think a mass in Karelia G1 is good, as long as it can hold...
Hello all, I'd enjoy to analyse more of the Japanese offensive towards Moscow that may take it (if Allies KGF), or what can still be done if KJF. Caspian Sub...
People talk a great deal about "dead zones." What exactly are they? Are they territories you vacate to set up a counterattack? This beginner needs some help...
I can't be sure, but it sounds to me like you are trying to do too much with Germany. If the Allies are mostly focused on Germany, Japan must do 95% of the...
... they territories ... this one. ... A dead zone is a zone where a moderate-sized force cannot survive, being easily crushed by a counterattack. Usually they...
I think an early hold in Karelia is like any other stand, it depends on if you have the gear to get the job done. Germany can frequently stage there on it's...
Regarding transports and complexes: Japan starts with the ability to produce only 8 units on it's island. Once Japan's paycheck starts to swell from taking...
Frequently Russia and Germany are both in a position where the bulk of thier forces are 2 territories away from each other. If either of the powers moved most...
It's not really necessary to simulate all possible combinations of different outcomes for a 2-stage attack (or attack and anticipated counter-attack). What...
... and ... successful, ... luck ... Greetings, Disclaimer: I play A&A exclusively face-to-face, and as such, I never have the luxury of a dice simulator to...
Greetings, I play a lot of games with a friend of mine, and he brought up an interesting point a while back. We were talking about the differences between our...
I would add that a "Dead Zone" is a territory where you want to kill enemy units in the context of attrition. In approaching "Dead Zones" and the swapping...
Ultimately, each attack I make has got to have a reason behind it. More must be evaluated than simply the odds of winning. For example, after a bad Japanese...
A word from the sponsor of Tournament A&A... Greetings, This is just an update regarding upcoming items of interest for the Axis & Allies upcoming Tournament...
Addressing the original poster's comment about skew: if the first attack is all infantry, for instance, while the second attack consists of more powerful units...
[Rick Hendricks] ... Not at all - the first all-infantry force doesn't have the added firepower of tanks etc. The really good part about Skew is the 'dying...
Two small errors in CaspianSub puzzle AP05. Germans can attack Caucasus with: 6 inf, 1 art, 5 tnk, 5 ftr, 1 bmb, 1 BS support Not 5 inf; count the bid inf too...
I think this is the essay starting the whole concept: http://donsessays.freeservers.com/deadzone.htm A little too self-important, but the series is very good !...
Good observation. The bid infantry was overlooked, and hence, that skewed the numbers slightly. Luckily, not enough to ruin the exercise, but thanks for the...
My opponent showed me a really ingenious new alternative opening starting with the tripleA Ladder 9 IPC bid: For 8 IPC buy another submarine in Central...
With such a big naval defeat for UK that early in the game I would shift gears and do a KJF game. Send everything that the US has against Japan. Play ...
