Germany Turn 2 Winter 1939/1940 (dec, jan, feb)

The attack on France is postponed because of the Mechelen Incident, and the need for a new plan.

Extendet German-USSR Trade Agreement of 1940, Ge will get stuff worth 8 IPC each turn plus free transit on USSR territory. USSR get stuff worth 6 IPC each turn.

Goering is new boss of the war industry (turn out to be a poor choice)

Purchase: Sub, FTR, BMB, Tank, Art, 2 Inf, Mech

Combat move
Battle of Atlantic: At this time Destroyers had ASDIC only that was of little use against subs, so subs could operate free. It was from 1942 when they got Huff Duff, Leigh Leight and ASV-radar, and destroyer-escorts, that Destroyers got the abilities in the OOB rules. For this Blog I cover that in the Tech.

GE Sub > 109 CV, CA conv Loss 1 conv point
GE Sub > 110 Sub (UK) convoy Loss: 2 conv points
Ge Sub > 111 DD (UK) convoy Loss 2 conv points
Ge Sub > 119 2 BB, 2 CA, DD (UK) Loss: GE sub
SZ 82 CA (Graf Spee) > 85 conv Loss 1 points

Total convoy Loss worth 6 IPC

W. Ge 112 BB (Scharnhorst/Gneisenau) > 124 CA (UK) Loss CA

Non-comb move

POL: 2 Tank, " Mech, Art, Mnt Inf to W. Germany

123 Tranny (Altmark) to sz 125 Norway DD (Nor)
I know this look strange, since Graff Spee is still alive, but a Turn is 3 months, a ship can cross the Atlantic in 10 days, and I need to strict follow the Order of Play (Ge, USSR, Jap, US etc) and since the Altmark Incident was kind of important, this is what we get

@The-Janus

I think Cornwallis replied with some good ideas.

I’ll also add that in another thread he said that moving the British fleet into sea zone 93 is another way of baiting the Lufwaffe.

Note that if baiting the Lufwaffe is an objective you should obviously scramble if Germany attacks the fleets in 110 and 111. The trouble is that I’ve seen some Axis players don’t do that and instead just sort of strafe 111 by taking the hits on the battleship and submarines, so they don’t lose any aircraft.

Personally I don’t really put much weight into strategies that require “baiting”, given its unpredictability. The best bet for minimizing the Luftwaffe is to make the Eastern Front so hard that the Germans either need the air force (providing some breathing room for the Western Allies), or that the Axis can’t advance out west.

While I’m not sure how to do this, I feel this might be an easier objective and puzzle to solve.
