Since I've seen quite a few here, I'll lend my view.
UK1 - Build Carrier, 1 Fighter. Fly 2 fighters to Karelia. Bomb Germany with bomber. Move Indians to Egypt, along with Syrian. Move Transport to Australia.

US1 - Build 3 Transports 4 Infantry. Attack Algeria. Move Pacific fleet to Atlantic. Move Fighters to British Carrier. Bomber to England.


Two Questions:

UK1 - No fodder for the Carrier?

US1 - Do you still build transports if the German bomber is in Western Europe where it should be?  I would certainly risk my Bomber on them...

Ture.  I would only attack 2 trn tops with a bmb and with a ftr, it is very hard to decide.

1 German bomber vs 3 US transports is an Allied trap.  

Chances are pretty good that the bomber will go down with the transports.  Even if all the transports are destroyed, it is still a good trade for the USA.  Sure it sets the shuck shuck back one turn, but with the German bomber gone, the Allied fleet is a lot safer and can now split up.  That German bomber will also probably never be rebuilt.


You're right - I checked it out and there is only about a 25% chance of destroying all the transports without losing the bomber.   I guess I've been burned too many times by lucky opponents - based on experience I would have thought the Bomber had better odds than that...  cheesy

I am sorry Geze, but your answers are a little vague.  What timing and with what forces?  If you are talking post turn 3 or 4, then maybe.  However the above discussion was centered around the first couple of turns.


they where talking about spain so I just wrote the stratedy I had involving it.

Hmmm... usually I go all out on Western Europe (UK and USA attacks on same turn) instead of taking Spain.   Smiley

I think Wild2000 covered about the only option, above.

Hit the Western Med. battleship with one sub, your battleship, and a transport with 2 infantry, then land 1 infantry in Algeria and 1 in Gibraltar after the naval battle...
