  • @trulpen

    I did a quick check on odds on Moscow on the turn after next. You will need 10-12 allied air in range to keep his odds below 50% if he decides to really go for it.

    Thanks! Should be easy-peasy.


  • Game is definitely looking vastly improved with Japan tied up in China, Germany stalled, and the Med about to be turned into a convoy-raiding nightmare for the Axis. The loss of the Italian air force was a big blow.


  • Came to think of something. Think I have to have moew in Moscow. Will adjust.

  • Neglected the italian sb can-opening-possibility. Think it’s corrected now. What do you say?

  • 2024 2023 '22 '21 '20

    I like it, but why give up Yenisey. As stands, the position is a stalemate, neither side can advance. The 2 inf aren’t getting anywhere quickly to help anything. I would think its worth it to stand and protect a few IPCs.


  • 2 sb reach.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '21 '20

    bummer. Didn’t see them down there


  • It’s easy to miss. I almost did.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '21 '20

    The good news is that as I see an all out push by G to attack Moscow in 2 turns with max def buy (9 inf + ftr) + max off buy (3 sb + 3 tanks) The battle is 75:25, and just a few allied ftrs can stop that. Russia is turning a corner


  • Hold your horses.


  • Ok, no more feedback. Consider the russian turn finalized.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '21 '20

    Don’t know why but recently I have a grid on this map now. I have not been able to figure out why it appeared and how to remove it. It is very annoying and makes it hard to take my Turn as I am not exactly sure what lines are the grid and which ones are real borders. Anyone know how to turn it off?

    Is my Capitol safe? The US has a 4 infantry, mech and artillery attack I need to consider. No planes can make it and no bombard as Japan still has Kamikazes. With no ANZAC transport in range there is no ANZAC follow on attack.

    Need to beef up the Philippines so the US cannot push the IJN out of position. Need more fighters there and fewer tactical since Japan cannot hit the Allied fleet anyway. Also looks like Japan can take India and West India and secure India; which is good so Japan can build there next Turn. Need to take Java back. China is not looking good and not sure how to turn that round. Probably can’t. Looks like will need to pull back from that stack so the Jap planes can be freed up for other duties; like landing in India to hold it next Turn and the Philippines. So last Turn holding Anwhe. That means Japan needs carriers to land planes on next Turn to fight the US fleet.

  • Ok, guys, ideas for the US/Ch/UK-superturn?


  • For the US in EU I’m considering mainly 3 options: a) Land in Normandie, b) land in Greece and stacking fleet in z97, c) neutral crush.

    I’m leaning towards b, although it does put the fleet rather out of play.

    In the Pac keep stacking by the Carolines. The USN doesn’t yet have the strength to take on the full japanese wrath.

    China hits 1-3 territories.

    UK follows suit. Maybe putting some fleet in z80.


  • Maybe it’s possible to do both a and b?


  • @trulpen said in Tutor game: AndrewAAGamer (X) vs trulpen [and everyone else] (A+50) OOB:

    Maybe it’s possible to do both a and b?

    If you do both of these, how will your setup be long term? Can you sustain both offensives after this turn?
