If you are capturing Germany and losing Russia that is pretty much how it often plays out, but around round 10. If this is occurring in round 5 your games are going very differently from how the majority of games play out among seasoned players.
Russia Restricted
-
What exactly is Russia Restricted?
-
it’s when russia can’t attack 1st round it can do noncombat movements but not combat movemets. this only for the 1st turn and it is supposed to get rid of the need of a bid.
-
Well, it doesn’t get rid of the bid, but it drops it from a 24+ bid to a more reasonable 12+/- bid
-
It allows Russia to fortify itself, but it takes away the preemtive strike.
-
Yea, the strike that destroyes the Spainish Sub, the Baltic Fleet and E. Europe or Ukraine and Manchuria basically ending the Axis’ ability to win anymore without a massive bid.
I always wanted to bid that Germany was worth 15 IPCs instead of 10. :)
