Speaking for myself as an Axis player, I’ll do a G2 DOW only if the situation arises. A bit like Sea Lion I guess. Normally, you need to buy some mobile forces G1 to have enough to prevent a counter attack. The other thing is losing the peace NO and USSR gaining its NOs a turn earlier. I guess that isn’t a big deal though.

There’s an autoSave folder in your default load directory. Just open a save game from there. Names are pretty self explanatory.

Sounds like you guys are leaning towards an Allied auto win. How did the tweaks turn out? Japan will become a true power-house only if you let them. The challenge for the Allies in the Pacific is to work together in order to harass and try to strategically set-back Japan. They might be terrifying with those 21 planes, but they can’t be everywhere all at once. It’s all zen. I think Japan is pretty easy to play the first 4-5 rounds, but then things might get real messy for them. If the Allies manage to put enough pressure on the board. Another nice feature of the game is that both sides get pretty tricky decisions to make. Especially the US has to choose how to divide it’s resources and impact. Young Grasshopper, you made some extra NOs that I think might make up some good balance of the game. Especially the 5 extra IPC to US and USSR, 3 extra to ANZAC and usually about 2 extra to UK. How has the experience been with them?

@Xlome_00 Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention to which thread this was. Got the impression that it was A&A 1941, but it is the 50th Anniversary version. I haven’t played it, but was reasoning from the mini-version of 1941. Perhaps someone else has a proper opinion. Would guess that Sea Lion is more possible in this version.
