@nebnworb yea they get the bit in their mouth and they can run all over the place. Little annoying things that if they don’t react and you can support, can really be irritating. Of course they can kinda do the same thing, depending on USA strategy : )
Alpha 3 Allied strategy A FIRST 2 ROUND GAME CHANGER
-
copper, would a mixed tanks (2) and mechs (4) force work as well in India instead of 7 mechs so you have more counter punch options to help China/UK later?
yep according to the calc it changes the results only slightly…and i like it becase IF the germans don’t bring russia into war round 3 and the japs are going for a round 4 take over, i can take india back with russia’s 6mech and two tanks, and the japs will have lost a decent amount of planes trying to take india without the russians there…add the russians there, the japs don’t win.
good call jeff with the slight quantity to quality change, to make it an overall better move.

Germany will probably take Scotland & Eire leaving no landing spot for the US strats. Although this will mean 4 less troops for the London attack.
also from sz 91 you can move 1 crusier to sz 119 and from 92 you can reach 110 thus stoping the germans from taking erie at all….like i said conditional…are you in 91 with brits? did your opponent leave your bb and cruiser alive in 110 round 1.
but as i layed it out you can block sz 119 and sz110

It’s hard to be specific, as there numerous tactical possibilties surrounding sea lion. I feel it would be very difficult to block a German amphib into Scotland & Eire rnd 3. However, if odds of taking London drop to ~ %55 it would put Germany in a precarious position.

As Russia I declare war on Japan on turn 1 and send the tank and mech from volgorod to china. I take the tac & fighter to Szechwan as well. Now the tank, mech, and tac & ftr are now protecting china and in position to attack Japan. I believe it takes three turns for the tank and mech to get to India this way and the tac and fighter 2 turns.

Have you thought about how much Germany would have to divert away from their attack on London if you were to put the bomber and a couple infantry on Eireland, and 3 of your fighters on Scotland? How many air units it would take for them to cover the transports going in through z110 and z109, and how many land units would it take to get both Eireland and Scotland if they don’t scramble? If you do this little maneuver of putting a couple units in Eireland and 3 fighters in Scotland, they CAN NOT take London and both landing spots. So the airstrike will work.
The trouble with it though, is what happens if Japan does not go for India, but goes for Hawaii and Sydney instead?

That would undoubtedly work in killing the navy, but I feel by moving that many units off of London it may end up causing Germany to just hit London with max force and possibly cause them to hold the u.k capital so long that japan will win on their side of the map.
With the current strategy I laid out you can take back London (if it falls) and cut that German navy down. Allowing America to spend its money in the pacific and prevent a Hawaii capture and hold.
I like on U.K turn 2, moving one boat to sz119 and the rest (the med boats) to sz110 pulling German units away from taking London and putting them in the SZ…
That being said have you played a game with this U.K strategy you just laid out? And is it successful? Because I do get it that it undoubtedly kills the German navy and secures the Russian northern front allowing a capture of Finland and Norway but does the U.K get their capital back at a reasonable round so that you can still fight the japs? -

You ever seen Japan win on the Pacific map without taking out India?

Sydney + Haw, check my game against bombsaway.

Strategy should be simple: send every units possible to London, dont try anything fishy ;)
And send Australian fighters to India. (possible russians fighters if that will make the big difference)And buy some art if you expect germany going to Scotland, when they do you hit them hard for a round or 2 (but dont win, just do damage)

A simple post leads to the question of how….the length of the post is to explain how.I can do simple and vague.
all units London and surrounding sz, kill German navy, reinforce India with a few Russians, save Africa, and use the Anzac as effectively as possible.
Thank you for the productive post
