To take D.N.G. in ANZ1 without using the trasp ?

However, just for the record, @trulpen has a preference for a large German fleet to prevent any Western beach head plus if allowed to grow unchecked, will dominate the Med and prevent US build ups.

A wise maxime by Sun Tzu, know your opponent. :)

Most people would say that early sea lion is a loser, but @trulpen is too crafty for that. He will simply threaten sea lion and continue to build. The result is that the UK continually has to defend London and cannot focus on the Middle East.

I say an early SL is a loser. However, I always try to keep an open mind and hypothetically an early SL that’s extremely cheap would probably be a winner.

Basically it does save the aussies a tr, so the 3 IPC can actually be considered as 10 IPC.

[malmessi74]

@trulpen
But this is to get a +3ipc bonus, just when JAP is at war with ANZ.
Is it possible to take D.N.G in Anz1 by trasp hoping JAP not declaring war to ANZ in JAP2 (in order to move back trasp saving it in ANZ turn2) ?

The problem is then that ANZAC won’t take Java. That’s -4 IPC for the next turn. For that reason I’d choose Java before DNG during A1 any day of the week. Unless, of course, there’s been a JDOW1.

For BM at 20:

french inf to normandy (makes vichy more complicated)

Is it possible to place 1 british inf in Marseille (S.FRA) if opponent agrees ? Like for N.G. ? This makes Vichy impossible, not just complicated

Not necessary. Just put a french inf there instead. I would not allow 1 french inf and 1 british inf to be placed in the same territory.

[trulpen]

Sorry, I missed your point. No, I wouldn’t allow it.

[trulpen]

If the brits want to put units in S Fr, then they’ll have to use the tr in z98. That move shouldn’t be for free.

Besides, a Vichy would not be impossible, since it’s possible to air-strike S Fr.

I use to spend a brit trasp in order to move inf+aa from MALTA to S.FRA to prevent Vichy, a new brit inf as a bid in S.FRA is very nice…

Same concept at the same time :blush:

I agree, but unfortunately too nice. ;)

But if I have a brit inf in S.FRA and keep it as last casualt. Vichy is impossible, am I right ?

Not if it’s only air left attacking.

[trulpen]

Or the last attacking land-unit dies.

Still think a chinese inf in YUNN is better (JAP will hate this move)

Ok but this means air units attacking 2inf 1art and 1aa;
I use to play LL but in a normal dice game this is very dangerous…

It is. It’s possible to use 1-2 land units and hope the defense hits them but no more. It’s a shaky attack, but all depends on how eager Axis is to execute Vichy.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

@surfer this is a very reasonable bid and has major impact on the first round battles. I like the proposal.

[Arthur Bomber Harris]

@malmessi74 the Yunnan infantry bid makes for a very dicey first round. Sometimes it makes a huge difference, while other matches it has zero effect.

I don’t think it is a bad move, but I would prefer having a bid that makes a definite First Round impact in critical theaters.
