@Arthur-Bomber-Harris said in How to best threaten German Baltic fleet?:

You don’t have to sink the German fleet, just force them to shelter behind Denmark for safety.

If they actually have a fleet large enough to stand toe to toe with the Allied Atlantic fleet, the Allies have won concur it means Moscow won’t fall for a very long time. Having multiple German carriers is a guaranteed L for the Axis.

I couldn’t disagree more. That fleet keeps the allies from landing troops in Europe if it’s big enough. Except it’s not supposed to be big enough to go toe to toe, it needs to be big enough that it can’t be moved.

Yes Russia survives longer, but if you know what you’re doing with Japan that’s a non factor.

Instead of investing in land units to fail
miserably at defending the dozen or so places an allied fleet can strike without reprisals put those IPCs into a navy and prevent the landing in the first place.

@Elrood Ha, that science tech hasn’t been helpful, 0-7 dice roll. And the mano-e mano, or should I say camel to horse battle in Trucial coast lasted 9 rounds. Thanks for vacating Al-Dam for Turkey to blitz through it for free.
@Entek you’re up as Turks

@FranceNeedsMorePower

Out curiosity, have you tested them yet?

I haven’t played the game either, but part of me feels like your ideas are too simple and you assume that the Axis get to Mersa Maruth. I also think you underestimate how many supply tokens (likely many) would be required to accomplish your one-two punch that I doubt the Axis would have enough of (thanks to their truck limits).
