    • RE: Quite a miniatures collection for $100

      @RisingSun I had similar experience, I was big into the naval miniatures but couldn’t afford both. I bought a lot on ebay a year or so ago and have played a few games. It is not difficult to learn especially if you are familiar with the navy side, it’s pretty similar but includes facing. I think it’s a great game and wish I had collected it some when it was active.

    • RE: How is the balance with the new Alpha 2 changes? Please give your view.

      As Japan if I were to attack Russia, I’d go through China to get there.  Germany should be able to keep the USSR too busy to spend money on several fighters/Tacs to send east if you attack Siberia.

      If Japan doesn’t attack the Russians they still will need to defend Manchuria from the stacks of Russian soldiers who start in the area and can attack after turn 4, so you’d still have 30+ IPCs devoted to the area with no gains.

    • RE: The Pause

      I’d have this happen in the revised edition.  The armies on the front wouldn’t always have reinforcement lines and the front lines would wreck themselves and neither have the offensive power to risk an attack or enough units to support holding any gains if an attack succeeded.  Usually that’d happen if Germany and Japan both went for the USSR and then had to divert to defend themselves from the UK and USA.

    • RE: Changes still needed to the game, IMHO

      I’m just wondering if a 12 point Minor IC in Romania would be worth anything?

      I personally wouldn’t make anything there, Germany should be able to capture one of the Russian Minors.  I  generally prefer to build units than bases.

      I liked the 12 IPCs spread around from the previous game.

    • RE: Battle Report Alpha 2

      This sounds like a fun game!

      did you think putting the USA all in against Japan was a good starting strategy?  I am finishing a game as the allies and I put the first 2 (maybe 3) turns just into the pacific navy and it turned out I didn’t do enough so the USA hadn’t done too much in force, but still have managed to support the British in Africa and liberate France.

    • RE: ANZAC Strategy

      I ended up being able to Capture Japan (ANZAC had no part, it was all USA) when Japan failed on a some risky moves and I was able to counter attack against the island.

      I had been flying US fighters in a train from West US to Australia, because the transport supply line had been interrupted early on. ANZAC seems to be too far out of the way to do anything once Japan is more or less secured, the USA or UK would be the ones to actually do the fighting.  In my limited experience (3 games), all they have done is sit in a strategic defensive territory for another allied country.

      Thanks for the help and input!

    • RE: ANZAC Strategy

      the 27 points is in my game in progress.  I think ANZAC went to war turn 2 though.  Japan was so close to capturing it.
