... Do you also stick the AA gun in Ukraine early on? ... UKR is a good spot. KAR is also a good spot since ftrs from WEU can pop KAR and land back in WEU....
... I wanted to say now that I've read it carefully, this isn't the answer I was looking for. While a great counter to a 2 tran buy + full German naval link,...
... Isn't the whole point to keep America and England buying fleet so Germany can be very aggressive against Russia, even to the point of making bad trades...

BTW - In my last post, I tried an abbreviation for the second Russian turn as S2, meaning Soviet 2. I did that because R2 looks like "round 2" to me. Is there...
... Who profits from this exchange? If the Germans put bid units into Africa, they may be making some good cash. Rd3 Allies may go into Africa, but they may go...
... I think you mean at least an 8 IPC bid (Tank in Algeria, Infantry in Libya) since C-Sub rules (just like the Triple A ladder rules) are no more than 1 bid...
... Interesting (dPunch: 49, dCount: 20). But doesn't this mean a force of 1 Destroyer, 6 Submarines, 1 Carrier, 2 Fighters, 1 Transport (dPunch: 27, dCount:...
... Yes, but is that not the goal? Sink the British so they cannot stage a defense of Russia nor an attack on Europe or Africa. And you are pondering the...
... To be honest, I figured that Americans and British were building warships and fighters to kill the German navy on Round 1. The idea being massive over...
... Thanks, I do like that counter a lot better. I actually found one that I liked as well, but it's not as fast and it's more based on the paper's purchases....
... Thanks, I do like that counter a lot better. ... That move was devised by the crafty Evil Dr. Minasian (Robocop is his 'Mini-Me'). Not a bad counter at...
... Well, keep in mind the paper stresses buying dual-use items. The big airforce is in keeping with the idea that you first buy for the water, clear the...
... Well, keep in mind that at some point or another you will be attacking the German fleet, and you would like some fodder units. If you build 3 subs to start...
Obviously the person who wrote the CSub paper regarding National Advantages, at the time it was written, had very little experience in game play with these...
... Advantages, at the time it was written, had very little experience in game play with these advantages. I think they are accurate portrayals given OOB...
Hey, thanks for taking the time to roll through the long list of advantages. I have a couple of comments in reply. ... Advantages, at the time it was written,...
I'm stuck on an old problem here. While I think I'm now happy with countering the German naval link strategies, I'm not so happy when the bid is 1 art to Libya...
... If the German Med fleet is still in the Med, I don't know if it's a good idea to counterattack Egypt when the Germans had a good R1 attack. Otherwise I...
As the Axis, I'm used to my opponents resigning (in domination games) once Moscow falls, if Berlin isn't in any imminent danger. One of my current games...
... I think you could manipulate it into a gamble for Africa. I'd allow the UK to counter Egypt twice, and then they're out of units in Africa = leaving it...
First off, I understand that the paper was really old when it was written, and I tried to take that into consideration by pointing out that the author was not...
I am thinking that England's best alternative would be a build of Industrial Complex + 5 Infantry. The IC should go in S. Africa and England can stack Kenya....
Okay, we have talked about how to stop Germany if they build a carrier and try to link on Germany 2. But what if Germany builds a Carrier and 3 Submarines and...
There is a fundamental flaw with the logic in the KJF paper. If you are staging your navy in SZ 62 (Alaska) and building submarines in SZ 55 (W. USA) then why...
If I had to adjust the paper, for the battleship strategy outlined. Here's how I would adjust it. USA 1: Carrier, 3 Submarines USA 2: Carrier, Submarine,...
... 5+ turns ... I don't have any ideas, but I have to echo your thought, I've had similar frustrations and this will be an interesting discussion. I usually...
... (i) I reasoned that a massive Japanese air force could threaten both Allied fleets (US in Med, British in Baltic) and thereby force two defensive fleet...
... I don't think there is interest. Where people want to be concise, they usually type out the whole thing. Otherwise it seems that from context, most people...
