@Nas_sa1 problem with neutral crush so early is giving the allies a lot of free money and troops and US has a good landing spot on the continent. I just don´t think all those disadvantages outweigh the advantage of just having your fighters on a good spot for G3…

@Nas_sa1 why declare war on all neutrals when you can just take algeria I1 providing a landing space for all german air? Thanks for all information and ideas i will look at them in detail.

@Hejjo_7 hey, i can´t open the document.
Very interesting idea.
Maybe make some videos with your ideas?

I have a small channel with some ideas

Well it can serve for Germany.
I made a small strategic video for a scenario where it can have a good purpose.

@ron ah leuk om te horen. Spelen jullie regelmatig G40? Als je wilt mag je me mailen ([email protected]). We proberen 1x per twee maanden eens een week- of weekenddag te spelen van 9u tot 17u.

@Garlick hey, ik ben van Willebroek. Je zegt dat je spelers kent van regio Mechelen onder andere?

@Galendae if getting it cheap it´s not that stupid. I never do a 11 inf buy with russia. I like the Arti or some fast movers to threaten Finland.

Yes my buy is also 6inf and fighter or 7 inf and tpt (for S-Afr).
Can you outline in a video or step by step your UK1 please so I have it right. Bc fighters on gibraltar are useless against I1 of G2 attacks on the UK fleet bc no airbase there. Only fighters on the carrier can make it back.

@Galendae If you buy an airbase and blocker destroyer on UK1 against the common G1 buy of sub/dd/carr then you will get sealioned bc you are building nothing on london. Yes on UK2 you can block 110 and 106 but you need to block both in order to prevent/deter/make it costly for a G3 sealion which is not ideal.

I’am a big fan of gibastion, don’t get me wrong but there are a million things to consider and that can go wrong.

I’m adapting and improvising enough. Look at some of my videos: https://www.youtube.com/@Cornwallis1988.

@surfer our Germany on G1 buys the sub,dd and carrier and takes south france. So on G2 they can attack the UK fleet with 2 fighters, 2 tac and 2 strat bomb bc they can buy a carrier in S France. Yes agreed it will Cost air but it gives axis full reign in the Med. That´s why you need the airbase on gibraltar on UK1.

@surfer i know. I´ve experimented a lot with it. Do you also buy UK airbase then?

@surfer problem is that italy can take Algerije and on G2 luftwaffe destroys UK fleet. On I2 you lose egypt.

@barnee oh nice didn´t know that one. Thanks!

@surfer interesting. What do you do then with the UK fleet in the Med?

@dazedwit this Channel has some good matches to review

@surfer and with a bid. What would you do with allies in this case.?

UK: taranto?
US: KJF or KGF?

@surfer we play tabletop OOb without bid.
Yes I do know the two links you´ve send me.

Stacking Yunan is not possible bc they only declare war on J3 or J4 even. Protecting egypt with UK demands all UK resources so when they switch and built 7 tpt they can do a sea lion on G4 even (has happened a few times).

Good idea of the R1 stacking of yunan but russia can only get 1 tac and 1 fighter on R1 there so japan can still take it.

What do you suggest as a counter against a G1 buy of 1 sub, 1DD and 1 Carrier. Germany takes paris and yugo and destroyes the UK fleets in 110, Schotland and canada.
Russia is attacked on G3 onwards. JDOW on J3.
Italy on I1 takes gibraltar and goes to alexandria (reinf by luftwaffe on G2). German fleet goes into Med and from there on they help Italy secure 2 to 3 bonusses (no ships, 3 of the 4 territories and morroco to alexandria) so italy is in its 20s or 30s in IPC
Combinend with strong luftwaffe présence its a huge struggle for allies to gain a foothold in gibraltar.
In mean time Japan wipes out China and on J3 or even J4 they start expanding.

My question is what woulld you do as allied US and UK player?

@Gargantua interesting strategy. What do you attack with your mobile force? Do you hit the main stack moving forward to moscow or do you wait from the flanks to attack his rear?
I think the succes of your strategy depends on how you use this mobile force, hence my question.

@SuperbattleshipYamato @Galendae @FranceNeedsMorePower
Here is an idea for a German Strategy
