It would be nice to have an eyes on ally.

Hi crockett
A few comments while Trout getting up to speed on the map version change.
I'd suggest repairing the Hvy BB and nix the Inf. I'm guessing the Ftrs are for Spain to save a turn to Moscow. Otherwise you could total War buy but it's gonna take 3 turns to get there as is, so 4 might be too late.
I'm guessing the S FRA attack is to soften up for the Tommies to finish off and the Bmbrs in ARCH to keep Urals safe.
You've already moved American Air to E Russia. The Fleet to Guam will most likely invite a Giant Naval Battle with IJN.
That could go either way. Big battles, especially Naval can be swingy and dicey.
Idk. Not really much to say other than repair the BB
Edit
Something to think about. As long as the Reich controls S Italy, It gets Italian Objectives.Espana is obviously more important though, so it'll be key to kill S FRA. Probably can't do both but something to remember for the future.
The Italian Objective is only 3 bucks right now, so not a biggie.
Edit 2
Although no surface ships in the Med is another 5 PUsEdit 3
For to how many German units can hit Moscow in two turns. I'm thinking 35-40. If he Total War Bmbr builds maybe a few more but he still needs to deal with w/e the blokes throw at him in Caucasus/Turkey.Plus the FlakTower makes Hvy Air attack a risky proposition. Forming 2nd Tank which can be active the same time as 1st Tank will make a big impact too.
Moscow probably relatively safe for now. A German breakout, especially to the South towards ME might be a bigger issue.
Idk. Just some thoughts
Edit 4
Remember the 3 Air LL and UK Rail. The Turkey Ftr can make Moscow and the 2 in Egypt Caucasus or Stalingrad.Tommie Tank can block in Turkey and rail can cork him in Rostov and Tambov. That keeps Stalingrad safe for another rd.
Well that's about all I got
Still a close a game -
@beelee That's what I need. And the process is move air ll to Russia, Russia pay and use on the same turn.
-
I've got to figure out the German money, 100 percent. He is making way too much. Just in wash-rinse-repeat.
-
yea as long as none of the Allied aircraft take part in combat operations the turn before they switch to LL and they are in a original soviet TTy, then russia can buy up to 3 AirLL tokens and place them in 1st place phase, similar to repair Cvs.
Then at start of CM use edit to switch to soviet units so they are good to go that turn
Edit
US and UK have little LL dots that you can use if you want. Place them with edit at the end of your turn. There isn't a Strat Bmbr one. Just use Tac.Or simply make a comment in your post stating which units are LL

@crockett36 Hey all! Was able to get the map downloaded successfully. Thx Beelee for that. You guys have a wild game going on and I don't have much time as I will be unplugging later today and not back online for Triple A until a week from now but a few thoughts:
- Not sure I understand why some neutrals are still neutral. I thought all neutrals joined the other side (except Mongolia) whenever one side attacked them.
- Allies in a good position in the Pacific and the Med. But Russia is on the ropes.
- Additionally, Axis in a good position to move down into ME
- So Crockett, some thoughts strategically as I don't have time to think tactically yet about it. Because it's not obvious what the best next move is - so I agree with you on that.
a. I would pull back from Guam as you don't have a clear advantage in a big naval tussle and overall Pacific in good position, so no need to jeopardize that.
b. On other side of the board, maybe have UK/USA focus on ME defense to help the Soviets as they have their hands full trying to stay alive right now. In addition to keeping up the pressure in French territories.
c. Would not take France so as to not lose the income from French territories.
Can invest more brain cells into this when I come back from vacay with wifey & kiddos. Happy Summer everyone.
-
The True Neutrals turn into Pro Neutral for whichever side didn't attack.
Enjoy your vacation !
-
Thanks! So much!
-
@beelee You can give the Soviets bombers as well? cool!
-
@crockett36 Bombing Gib is one stinky sneaky move! Congrats on being a pain in my butt!
-
@crockett36 I suppose I ought to know something about DDay.
-
@crockett36 Why can't I para into n Italy?
-
Sorry only UK can get Strat Bmbrs. My bad
Edit
You will need to use edit to move the US Para to attack N Italy from Spain, as there is no clear path for him to otherwise.D-Day is explained on page 39 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jI_1JdIC-1KiTihBICJAbtX3GpVYnNgf/view?pli=1
Game Notes has the triplea specifics
Only seen it used a couple times but it worked pretty good. You just have to be very deliberate to make sure everything ends up where it's supposed too.
Personally, I've never seen a lot of use for it but then I've never really planned for it either.
Usually US can land and then UK just reinforces as they normally would.
If facing a huge Force in Normandy or HOL, I guess it might be worthh the hassle.

@beelee What does sub changer mean again?

@crockett36 said in EXP crockett Victory Panzer beelee:
What does sub changer mean again?
Can you supply the context ? Not sure what you're referring to.
-
@beelee The rats sitting in the water off 112 that I can't exterminate.
-
@crockett36 Well, I just noticed the airbase in Gib. UHD didn't help me there.
-
heh heh
Yea so Changer is allied to all players. Primarily so the LMs won't cause a battle after the TTy they're in is taken.
So for the Type XXI and regular U-boats that are in a SubPen, they change to Changer control so they can't be attacked.
The only way to kill them when they're in a Pen, is by conquerring the TTy the pen is in while they are in the Pen.
They will auto die then but the Pen itself survives. It can't be used by anyone unless the reich takes it back over.
