Yes, it sounds like you’re putting the infantry from Hong Kong in Japan, which is kind of what I thought you’d want, so yes it makes sense. Â I’ll check your map too
-
Yeah, it looks like that’s all you did, so our maps match now and we can go forward
-
Well, I’m playing what I would call a very conventional axis game, so my position is pretty typical. The more fashionable strategies I’ve seen emphasize sealion, india crush, or Middle east blitz. These can be successful but often leaves the USSR too strong or Japan open to getting killed by the US.
No, India should run. I was being facetious. It just will be a headache for me having those units reinforcing the Middle East, stopping the German run for oil, particularly if you build some miIC’s in Egyp/Irq.
-
You’re giving me too many ideas! Hehe you’re probably feel sorry for me being a rookie at this game…
Wait, you want me to build in the middle east because you’ll take them over. Nice try, again.
Build more offense for Russia, etc etc - nice gamesmanship :lol:
Whatever you do, please don’t throw me in that briar patch!Yes, the India stack will probably meet you in the middle east and/or help out Russia from the east, but the Japs will be right behind, and can start building in India
I’m glad you’re playing conventional - good experience for me.
Even if I only get to build once with France, that’s gonna be very satisfying -
I have wondered for the past 2 years since Europe 1940 came out what a conventional, strong and deliberate push into Russia by the Germans would look like, and this is the very first time I’ve been able to see it. So I’m really glad I am playing this game with you.
I’ve also never seen the Allies land on Europe or really get into the Mediterranean. Yeah I haven’t seen too much having never really got past round 4 or 5.But our Pacific theater feels a LOT like P40, which I did play several times, and sometimes more than 10 rounds. Which is cool. So yeah, I like facing the conventional but quite solid Axis strats at long last.
And I definitely like Alpha3 the best so far, although of course we all have things we wish we could change in the rules.

Ha. Internet working so will checking in
-
Very interested to see what allies do
-
Me too :-)
-
perhaps more tech for USA?
-
Perhaps
I’m actually as anxious as you to see this move forward, but I tend to give precedence to comparatively quick and easy AA50 moves (although I haven’t had too many to make) and spent a lot of time trying to get a game back and track where they lost a player and I’m helping them get the game going again and finished, so haven’t looked too much at this game again yet…. I converted the whole game from AAA to Battlemap and have been trying to figure out a J3 in a game that I haven’t participated in… and I’m ALMOST done! :lol:But I have a lot of time on my hands :-D so it shouldn’t be long… hopefully tonight, because man this game is compelling.

*back on track
-
You know me, easy come, easy go… so no prob on my end. Just excited to see what the allies do.

I am looking for a couple hours to set aside to figure out the next moves…
Leaving for a few hours right now… maybe tonight, but there are a lot of other things competing for my gaming affections… :-) -
sounds good. I’ll check in later tonight. If you don’t post tonight, pm me when you do if you could.
Thanks!
