    • RE: Anzac factory Brasil

      @Witt me neither but perhaps i might have overlooked some variant of this idea.

    • RE: Anzac factory Brasil

      @SeaYa i don´t know if it would work. That´s why i asked if anyone had done this.
      Anzac taking persia is something i´ve done and which is fun. Especially when India has fallen.

    • RE: Anzac factory Brasil

      @surfer i would do it so to have an Ally that plays between Italy and Germany.
      Second it can maybe allow US to focus less on Germany in a KJF strategy. If Anzac buys some subs there every turn to start convoying Italy/ger or just a tpt to battle gibraltar and maybe north africa.

      It´s not the first or best strategy but maybe someone has had succes with this type of move?

    • Anzac factory Brasil

      Has anyone ever send its Anzac transport to Brasil, and built a factory there?
      Can you built a minor there?

    • RE: I need some strategic advice for playing UK in RLP

      @Herr_B

      A battleship, two destroyers and 2 seamines makes for 39 ( 19 + 2 times 8 + 2 times 2).
      How do you end up having 15 for land units, they only have sometihing of 48 if i´m not mistaken with the 15 of Malta incl.

      I did buy all navy UK1 in gibraltar and it got destroyed. UK2 (33 IPC) i bought battleship and 2 destroyers and they got destroyed as well.

    • RE: I need some strategic advice for playing UK in RLP

      @Herr_B i´ve played three games as allies (Rommels last push) and axis won by R7.
      Axis bomb and thus destroy the Malta supply ( one piece) and the UK fighter on G1.
      I also built a UK fleet in gibraltar but german subs built G2 can wipe those out and buying nothing land for egypt will give you problems.

      After UK1 i never achieve in reinforcing malta bc axis figtees and subs can wipe everything you built or send without hamperring their advance towards cairo

    • RE: Red Skies

      @dazedwit not all of them. A bit too long and too much dice roling. Interesting. Cool how you try-out new strategies.
      You only bombed Rumania? Couldn´t he just built in Germany and outmass you bc buying no bombers makes it difficult for USSR to defend so if R1 you only buy 3 units then germany will have more men.

      @dazedwit could you explain the general idea? What do you do with the 3 Russian strat bombers?

    • RE: Malta issue

      @Matt-Hyra for example: UK buys a sea mine, 2 fighters and 2 supplies in the Malta sea zone.
      Italy attacks the two fighters with its fighters and sea unit and let´s say both sides kill each other. Then germany on his turn can attack and kill the convoy with its air units, being a fighter and one or two stukas, enough pieces to most Likely score a hit.

    • RE: Malta issue

      @Matt-Hyra thx for the answer. I have tried sending the UK fleet but it got destroyed. So you need to built up.
      You send only one convoy but if Ger or Italy attacks with their planes and navy they usualy score one hit so you never get anything through. But i will keep it in mind

    • Malta issue

      Germany can on R1 attack malta with the Stuka. So as collatoral damage it destroys one damage. After that the luftwaffe and Italian navy/airforce can always destroy the two fightees you built with UK in the Malta sea zone. So you get the Malta bonus just once for a very long time it seems.

      Is this correct and how can UK deal with that loss?

    • RE: Malta

      @AndrewAAGamer where in the rules book does it say Gibraltar is a staging area?

      Another question. Germany can on R1 attack malta with the Stuka. So as collatoral damage it destroys one damage. After that the luftwaffe and Italian navy/airforce can always destroy the two fightees you built with UK in the Malta sea zone. So you get the Malta bonus just once for a very long time it seems.

      @oztea is there a final version of the rules? Is the game balanced or allied advantage?

    • RE: Taranto, Tobruk, or Both?

      @GeneralHandGrenade
      What if Germany sends a fighter to tobruk and Tac Bomb to southern Italy.
      In OOB without Bid, would you do it? The odds are very slightly in your favor so it´s a 60-40 shot to win.

    • RE: Sahara express

      @Pinch1 yes i know that video but it demands huge US resources so by doing that you are abandoning the Pacific and Axis can easily repulse the US landings. Plus they can destroy a portion of your fleet very easily.

    • RE: Sahara express

      @Pinch1 true but that doesn´t change that US is faced with a German navy and bomberfleet.
      What do you do with US when UK does Middle Earth, go full pacific?

      @SuperbattleshipYamato that is precisely the goal.

    • RE: Sahara express

      @SuperbattleshipYamato of course it´s better to hit North Africa or Europe directly.
      But when Germany fends of with fleet and bombers you gotta do something.
      It´s only the fast movers that go there. They can reach India turn 4.
      As i explain it´s a three turn investment. Other than that US can invest in Pacific. But with this move you have already some back up in the Middle East. UK can´t do this alone.
