In my game I have going now I purchased 8 Inf and 1 CV for Sz5 on my G1 move in hopes of defending the Sz’s around Norway, etc.  But what happened was on R2 the sub went to Sz6 as a sort of blockade while UK and USA navy built up and is now a huge threat to Western Germany and the only thing my German navy could attack was a lowly sub.

Anyway around that or is that the counter for a G1 CV buy?  Should I have just given up Norway and moved my units out of the Baltic opening up for German invation or just build up land defense?

Just started playing Revised this year.  I first played Classic in 2002 but only a couple games and I was terrible.  I guess I found this forum last year sometime and have only played 1 full PBEM game… working on gettin more experience as I really enjoy strategy games and WW2 history.

What is Japan going to do with an IC in South Africa???

I’d save 5 IPC for a free chance at a tech roll!  :evil:

Is there a standard bid for league or tournament games?

I have a game in progress right now but we are gonna switch after I lose with the Allies and I get a 7 IPC bid.  I’m thinking about 2 Inf Ukraine and 1 IPC Germany.

In Richmond, VA they are selling Tshirts that have “Ignorance Breeds Ignorance.  Neuter Michael Vick!” written on them!

He goes to court today.

@Cobert:

I send enough units to take WRus with enough to defend it, and I send in enough units to Ukraine to kill everything but the fighter.  I dont like taking it, because that involves leaving armor on the front without any fodder.

I just started my first game online and am playing as the allies.  I ended up taking West Russia with 7 Inf, 1 Art, 1 Arm and ended up taking Ukraine with 3 Arm because I was set on destroying that fighter.  I don’t really know how to strafe properly but I will try beating up on Ukraine next time instead of taking it and see what happens.  I also bought 3 Inf and 3 Arm for a little more firepower.

So yeah, on Germany 1 I am sure he will roll right over my 3 Arm I have sitting in Ukraine.  Didn’t really think about strafing because I gained 3 IPC and he lost a valuable fighter.  Plus I got a big stack in West Russia and 3 more Arm in Russia to head right back into Ukraine on Russia 2.

What can I say, I’m a noob!

Is it really worth it to attack Australia and New Zealand if there is no more UK Navy in the Pacific?  I would think you would need to use the transports and battleships and fighters, etc. for Africa or taking over India and the rest of the territories that border a seazone.

Did you see the Chris Hansen Dateline NBC show where they did To Catch A Conman?

It was pretty good.

How important is it to take out a German fighter on R1?  If you don’t attack the Ukraine then that leaves Germany with all 6 of its fighters.  I’ve also seen a lot of differnet unit combinations purchased on R1 based on a couple of games I’ve been looking at:

8 Inf; or
5 Inf, 1 Art, 1 Arm; or
4 Inf, 1 Fig, save 2 IPC; or
3 Inf, 3 Arm; etc.

I guess it all depends on what you plan to do on R2 and what your strategery is…
