In the middle of a game, Question for Kreig

Cool program!  I’ll try it out the next time I’m with friends.

Try the tripleA thread.

In the light of day I understand you better now, and it’s right that you can calculate your defences/attacks better in LL, so you will end up using lesser resources for “just in case” or “just to be sure” situations. And ofcourse, if there’s a huge pile of trns on a “just enough to keep 1 DD left” fleet, someone made a mistake, because you have to calculate your losses if things go wrong in too. It’s like a 30% chance to take Ger with UK, no one would doubt about that, since the potential gains far outweigh the potential losses, thus tilting the average gain in your direction. That aspect is still in LL though, be it less severe (it’s a question of adding 1 DD instead of 1 BB “to be sure”).

@Telamon:

But as long as you have fun, that’s all that matters.

I couldn’t agree more! (and sry for my tendency to overreact :oops: )

Slackaveli, the tech is the same as old rules and continued in to Global, except research is not lost like it is in Global.
NOs are:
Germany: 5 if Axis control all of: France, NW, Germany, Hung, Rom and Poland.
              5 if Axis control 3 of these: Baltic, E Poland, Ukraine, E Ukraine and Belorussia.
              5 if Axis control either Karelia or Caucasus.
Russia:    5 if Russia controls Archangel &no Allied units present onRussian controlled Territory
            10 if Allies control 3 of: Norway, Finland, Poland, Romania, Hung or Balkans.
UK:         5 if Allies control E and W Canada, Gib, Egy, Aus and S Africa.
              5 if Allies control any original Japanese territory.
              5 if Allies control either FrNce or Balkans.
Japan:     5 if control all: Manc, Kiangsu and French Indo- China.
             5  if con 4 of: Kwant, EI, Borneo, Phil, New Guinea or Solomons.
             5 if control one of: Hawaii, Aus or India.
US.         5 if con all West, Central and Eastern US.
             5 if con Philippines.
             5 if Allies control France.
             5 if control 3 of: Midway, Wake, Hawaii or Solomons.
Italy:      Do you need this?

I have found it’s still very difficult for Germany to survive if Russia, Britain and USA team up.

The primary reason for this is the difficulty in sustaining a German navy.  Even at 6 IPC each, subs are expensive when you need to buy tanks and fighters every round.

That being said, I won my first game playing the Axis.  I was aided by my opponent’s poor play as he ignored Japan.  My Japanese units conquered Western USA, Central USA, Mexico, Western and Eastern Canada and it was over.

Opps for got the link.

@Krieghund:

Yes, they do.

If the UK is still in control of France at the Collect Income phase of the US.

@Krieghund:

1st: 1984
2nd: 1986
3rd: 1997

Thanks again.

Now, I hope I will find time to describ  the evolution of the control effect of Subs on SZ.
