What is a balanced Revised Bid?

[Guest]

Once you break $9 in an unrestricted bid, it opens up far too many possibilities for the Axis to make quick strikes and gain an early significant lead that the Allies are hard pressed to counter.

Think about the impact of just 1 ART added to Kwang before J1 AFTER you have already added a German INF to Libya and Ukraine…

Worse still would be +3 Infantry in Ukraine I think.  Gives Germany a real shot at taking Caucasus with enough to hold it on Germany 1.

Transport in SZ 50 +1 IPC for Japan is deadly too.

Submarine in SZ 8 is kinda deadly too, forces Russia into making a move she does not normally have to make against Norway.

+3 Infantry in Belorussia guarantees that Karelia can be stacked hard enough it will never fall as well.

(6 infantry from Belorussia, 3 Infantry from E. Europe, 3 Infantry from Norway, 2 Infantry from Germany plus all the tanks that can reach on Germany 1 is going to be one helluva stack for Russia to deal with.  Nice airbase for Germany too.)

If Russia does WRu/Ukr you can stack Kar even without a European bid in most games. Even if Russia has good odds attacking it, its still a good move since Germany can afford to replace its losses whereas Russia can’t.
