    Eh, with 4 fighters, I doubt England will be doing anything to Germany. (the rest are too far south to be of any use to Germany.)

    Figuring: 3 Aircraft Cover Air Patrol from W. Germany + 2 Aircraft on a German carrier + German Carrier, Cruiser, Battleship (dmged), Destroyer.

    Most likely, it goes to London and lands during NCM.

    Sorry CJ I do not understand your post. Can you possibly clear this up for me? Were you addressing my post or someone else?

    Your post about the normandy fighter for England.  I’m not overly worried about it and I do not think that it’s worth the potential loss of 4 ground units to kill.

    Figured taking Normandy on G1 anyway and killing the fighter is just a bonus. Of course my overall strategy is saving Italy and the axis winning Africa. With Japan doing their part in the Pacific then U.K. is pretty well tamed. Remember not playing for victory cities makes a different game. Heck, I dont even know what the VCs are without looking it up.


  • IMO Killing the Bristish fighter in Normandy will help Italy more than Germany taking southern France.  Southern France is a place Italy can actually help out with and, Germnay can’t afford to be building things in the Med. anyway.  They have both Russia and the U.K. to deal with.

    If Germany has southern France then they are in position to help Italy if needed. There is also that bonus for Germany in Egypt. If the axis do not hold Africa then Germany will never be able to deal with U.K. plus the U.S. and Russia.

    I’ve tossed in a few submarines in the Med, if only to keep the Anglo-Americans out.

    Realistically, it is the easiest way to get a ground unit to Egypt and I am not a virgin in putting 2 cruisers and a transport in the Med so I can assist in N. Africa.  It’s worth 5 IPC for Germany and, coupled with the Med, 10 IPC + TT for Italy.  THen there’s the bonuses for the Middle East and, in Barbarossa, that’s a huge boon as well.
