I’m also leaning to change the attack to Belarus, with the 2 mech, 1 tank. Maybe 1 fig, 1 tac as well.

Maybe 2 mech instead of art in Stalingrad, to reach Moscow immediately?
On the other hand, if a blocker in Rostov is skipped, needs to be pretty heavy to hold against 1 tank, 3 fig, 1 sb, then 3 inf is better. If G hits it, it has to be with some force, which can then be wiped out.
-
Would need 6 inf, 1 aa for Rostov. Don’t think we can afford that.

The other take of hitting Belarus.
I’m ok with risking the air. 33 % risk it hits one and then the tac goes. Without the air, the mech and tank are wasted. Will only make a dent in the german scouting-party.
G can then hit Norway with 6 inf, 3 fig, 2 sb, but likely the air will go towards Moscow instead. Norway is the naturally best landing-spot for US. Definitely want to go there! With only 1 sub and little air around, there’s no need to grab Denmark, so everything may enter Norway. UK has 1 fig to spare which can further help out.
I’d like to move all 6 figs from Karelia to Moscow mainly to deter SBR.
-
I discarded the plan of stacking Leningrad. It’s worth nothing if Moscow falls.
Have more or less decided on the second plan. I very much want to roll, but will try and wait a while for input.
-
Btw, another decent option for purchase is 9 inf, 1 art, 1 fig, only putting 1 inf in Stalingrad.
-
I do like the 11 inf, 2 art better though.
-
I will also use 1 inf from Novosibirsk into Kansu, in case there’s need for a retreat.

@AndrewAAGamer Out of curiosity, why so many artillery to Western Ukraine? Not sure it really matters, but also leaves a decently valuable target somewhat exposed. Unless of course that is the point? :)
Good question. If I want to get those artillery into Bryansk next Turn I have to move them into Western Ukraine this Turn. Any hope of taking Brynsk and thereafter turtling Russia next Turn requires I get those 6 artillery into position to attack first. This does leave open the possibility of a strafe of Western Ukraine to kill as many of those artillery for infantry as possible. This is where the 3 German fighters really are going to be missed on the Brynsk attack on G5.
Russia will not be able to take Western Ukraine and hold Bryansk. Therefore, they will want to strafe and hold. However unless it is a perfect strafe Germany should have a 95+ battle on Brynsk. I am assuming that Russia will not want to give Germany those kind of odds. I may be wrong.
You are right.
-
Time to execute the turn then.

Changed the sub to z112. Thinking that if G attacks the fleet with plenty of air, by building 3 ac’s (crazy, I know) the sub can take an eventual hit from the german sub. There’s only a slight advantage for the allied fleet in the case of an all-out german air-strike. But it should hold.
Not much else to do here, so consider Russia’s turn finalized.
-
Not quite finalized.
Have to evaluate putting a blocker in Bryansk against the italian 2 tank, 1 sb. Only worth it if Russia is able to threaten the stack, otherwise not worth it.
-
Not worth it.
Finalized.
-
Are you going to drive the Russian truck down to Ethiopia? @trulpen
-
Or i guess to egypt this turn
-
It should be in Cairo now. Yes, it’s heading for Ethiopia.
-
I would have recommended not risking the air on Belarus. You need that tac more than he needed the land units. And I should have suggested that instead of Belarus, you hit Baltic States. It is almost the same impact on him, but you could use the air safely.
Because of the loss of the tac, and because you didn’t build mechs, you may need to have more air that can reach Moscow on the subsequent allied turn than otherwise.
A landing in Norway with all 14 land units that can reach is pretty safe. For him to now seriously threaten the US in Norway, he will need to pull fast movers around from the attack on Moscow.
