Yes, Karelia is adjacent to the Baltic Sea.
Do you think Germany should go for Brazil or Not ?

Do you think Germany should go for Brazil or Not ? and if yes how do you think they should accomplish this :wink:
-
i wouldn’t know. Never played a game where German navy lasted beyond the 3rd turn.
-
No. Waste of money, that transport is toast if it tries to take brazil.
-
I took Brazil in my game against cameron. I dont think he was expceting that. The trannie is safe from any Allied planes and has a bb with it as an escort.
-
I think Brazil is the last thing Germany needs to worry about. If I remember correctly I’ve only seen somebody do it once (I was playing a very new person and could get away with it). Otherwise, despite the value of 3, it’s a waste of resources for Germany which is already strapped for troops.

How can you hold it. Who cares if you take it for 1 turn the US will just take it back and you are out of position for many turns. I am beginning to feel the same way about my Japanese attack on Alaska in the 4th round. The idea of diverting the US attention is worthy however holding these territories is impossible.
-
No one said anything about holding it. In my game against cameron, the point of taking Brazil is that he will re-take it, and divert an important trannie heading for Africa with it.

Changement is the key element. But in normal time i don’t see the point of taking Brazil.

I can not understand how Germany can trade a transport for an American transport. By going to Brazil you are essentially doing this. If you want to draw America’s attention do it with Japan.

Both works better. While Germany takes Brazil, Japan attacks Alaska and maybe even moves some transports to the Hawaiian sea zone to threaten Western USA.

The transport is dead before it even gets there, unless you’re playing against a moron.
-
alls you have to do is divert their airforce to something else,like maybe a sub in their ocean, and make them think that it is going to africa (from the baltic ocean) 8)

hee hee hee . . .

Japan should go after Brazil, it only yakes 3 turns
-
I believe it is impossible for Germany to go after Brazil. A better case can be made for Japan but the US can easily evict you in 1/2 moves. It is pointless as you can not hold this territory. I would rather go afer Madacasgar as it is easy to hold and never threatened.
-
go after both!
-
How can this be pulled off and what do you gain? This assumes the transport is lost and takes 2 turns to do even if you get there?
-
what you gain is- more IPC’s and distracting the US.
distracting the US and making it use its IPC’s is the most important-and the it only costs 14 IPC’s in wich you get back 3 so you have a net lose of 11 IPCs
-
and Brazil is so pretty . . . .
-
By all means, if you think it’s worth doing than do it. I just don’t happen to think it is, but hey go ahead and play with it and see what it gets you.
