@bolasgod Some turn 1 thoughts:
US purchase and maneuvering was good. Just be prepared for when Japan declares war.
Russia purchase was solid as well. Be careful to not have too many inf get stuck in Novgorod. You will need every available unit to defend against Germany. Decisively decide what to do with the 18 troops in Siberia. Do they stay and harass Japan or start the trek back to Moscow?
UK needs to be careful with the turn 1 purchase. 3 tanks are nice in SA but not on turn 1. You can potentially leave London wide open for Sealion if Germany build 10 transports on turn 2. 6 Inf and 1 fig is always a safe turn 1 buy. The Norway take is not advised you lose a precious transport and 2 inf to gain 3 for one turn a net of -10. Plus you weaken London without a purchase there. The attack on Italy is good. Leaving that sz 97 navy can be a headache, but you lose what is left on Germanys turn. You could of landed the planes in Malta to save them. China needs to stack so the Japan air can’t reach you. I will end the china threat on turn 2 with Japan. Not good for India.

@bolasgod Changed my casualty choice in Yunnan. Clicked too fast after you got 6 out 8 hits with INF:astonished: As for sz 97 you could of landed the tac in Malta it was only two moves to 97. Use the fighter from Malta to 97 only two moves. US in the pacific is tough. Protect Hawaii, get to sz 54 or take the carolines. You have to contest the DEI and chip away with INDIA, CHINA and ANZAC. The troops in Norway are gonna advance anyway or they will stay to defend Norway landings. So you lost 2 inf and a trn for nothing. You can take the dd by London and the bomber and attack the 2 subs in 106 then park the trn there. It can sail to south america. Can’t be reached. Keep playing and learning. I will try and give summaries at the end of each turn.

@bolasgod said in OOB +35 Bolasgod vs Majikforce game 2:

@majikforce so you’re saying that i shouldnt have taken any hits on my carrier? but then you would have just not retreated and killed my fleet anyway, the action I made caused me to be left with a cruiser at the cost of a possible 2 hits on the german airforce, right?

No I am saying you could of moved the fighters out of the sz after attacking. They had two movement left after combat. The navy was gonna die anyway but you could of saved the air for later. The DEI is the Dutch East Indies or the 4 islands that Japan can take to earn a bonus. Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Celebes.

@bolasgod And your defense dice have been crazy good so far!
