Ramdas Vaidyanathan has a new move called "Ram's Mahatma Gambit" -

southern france is easier than normandy g1. you can get one of those fighters in east europe somewhere (you know the one that is out of range from naval and you usually send to yugoslavia than italy). 3 mech fighter good to go.

I prefer to just do france. Though I like the southern france move when I am doing some kind of sea lion play. Prevents uk from merging fleet off gibraltar.

In this instance I prefer to take yugoslavia.

However if I am undecided… yeah I like the strafe. Shove east poland g2 no prob, start advancing sooner. It is really good if you plan on going all in on russia G5. It super all in, all the allies have to do is figure out a way to save russia. That is the whole game right there.

So, is thing balanced or does it favor one side or the other?

Also, how does it play?  Fast?  Slow?  Confused?

Looking forward to some reviews!

Thanks

You could bring a couple of mech infantry along with the tanks from west germany. These could act as soakers for the tanks.

@Young:

Also, scatter 1 infantry in each territory when pulling back as it prevents blitzing and forces them to earn every mile, confront his stack with yours to early, or leave most of your infantry where it can be reached.

Let me add that not every zone that the enemy can reach needs an INF as a blocker.
In certain places (in case there aren’t a LOT of german tanks), leaving certain territories open is ok, trying to single out some tanks and finishing them off with some INF + air force. Of course not every German will take the baitl.

Climbing Mount Kinbalu?  Isnt that an old Russian expression?

Great advice.  Once the Japanese form up with everything they can in range, the fighters have to fly the coop.  You already lost your TTs most likely, and 4 infantry isn’t a strongpoint.

I would be super sad without starting transports lol. No J1 DOW 😞 lol

Yeah the 1942 version of global is fun

As Simon says you can’t move any of your ships in that sea zone on NCM. There is a provision that allows you to move them to flee the sea zone on the Combat Movement phase without taking them into combat. The real purpose of the move though is to prevent any transports in the sea zone from loading ground units in that sea zone. You can still move to another sea zone on Combat Move and load ground units as long as it is a friendly sea zone. If you haven’t seen the video it explains everything;
