I’ve tried 5 subs on G1. you have to destroy the whole UK Fleet on G1 and then park in 112 assuming you got the UK navy except for 109. Park your cruiser in 112 and have 3 ftrs on standby to scramble.
UK pretty much has to decide to hit these guys or do Taranto. They dont get both. you will likely be able to get 3 subs on SZ109 to convoy. It worked well for me but i had to invest in 2 more subs on G2 and then turned my attention to the East. for 12 IPC you can pretty much demolish the UK income until they build a dd in Canada. this helps you because it takes units from the Africa campaign. Combine the convoy action with some nicely timed strategic bombing and you can basically level UK to building in Egypt, Persia, and South Africa.
I would say it was a different opener and fun to play it but not my normal setup.
might i also suggest our suggested poor boy table. Take a piece of 8X10 plywood and screw it to the top of the plastic table. Much more room to play.

The World at War series from the BBC circa 1970’s. Like 12 discs. Maybe 40’hours. I don’t know. Been a while since I watched it. I got it on Amazon
just send the backers the god damn files. i can print the board myself, i can print the rules myself, and i can probably paint some pieces to suit my purposes. i hate this crap.
I about pi$$ed myself laughing. This has all been worth it. Maybe some day you’ll bring your self to Texas and we can set up a game of Risk or Candyland for you there Minivan

You need to take your meds man. It’s just a game. My challenge still stands. Come school me Obi Wan. Oyster did show up today. Alas, I had already started a game. I hope he comes to play tomorrow. As for you Minivan, I’ll play you next. See you round ladies!
Sean
Curtmungus, are you still among us?
I always liked the crap you posted. Made me laugh. Please grace us with your humor and wit.

PM me i think i have what you want. We have some house rules that add a lot of spice to the game without making it overly complicated and requiring you to buy new stuff. our system only needs a pen and paper to make it work.

House rules tend to balance things out for us. Come to TripleA and watch us play some games or even join some games and play. I think you will see how we have unhinged the problems you speak of.
