@beelee Those German submarines are the most overpowered, dumbest, most ahistorical unit ever invented in house rule history. I'd love to know the thinking that went into that.
"I can attack you, roll a 6,4,4, and then retreat without recourse." Was this some Hitler wonder weapon?

If I played again, I'd have to have my opponent agree to not use them or explain to me what I'm supposed to be doing about it. Other than take over a territory one space away from WGer.

Hi Randy

Couple thoughts for your build. The 2nd TG 8 PUs pretty key Imo. You can have two Army/Corps active in Moscow defense.

FlakTower for another 12 PUs. 5 HPs and defend at 2 AA aginast All Tac and Bmbrs and 1 against All Ftrs.

2 bucks if you LL those two UK Ftrs. Leave you with 5. Maybe a Commisar and hook him up with a couple Guards and a Tank for some counterattacks or another Elite, have to move current one out of Moscow, and save a couple bucks for Total war/Mass Tank build next turn.

Just some thoughts but the TG gonna be a big hitter for you. Gotta keep 5 tanks to form him. Maybe you can get away with the Flak for another turn. That'd open up some other possibilities.

Grd Inf 3 for 10 bucks. Mass Tanks 3 for 12

@beelee wiser heads prevail!

@crockett36

I think if it took a turn to move into the pen it could work. But attack and retreat into the pen is like, well yea I'm gonna buy one of those every turn lol

a move not turn

crockett36

commissars are not placed in 1st placement, right!

beelee

@crockett36

no they place 2nd. German Oberst place 1st because they consume a ss Inf

crockett36

elites can move 2 right?

beelee

@crockett36

no they roll twice.

beelee

@crockett36

Guard Inf move 2

crockett36

@beelee I love the many German ground units that can defend at a 4 or higher.

crockett36

@crockett36 Almost as much as I love how many German units can move 2 spaces.

beelee

@crockett36

yea I think mobility is key for most Armies. The Armored Inf are way badass Surprised he hasn't made a mobile Artillery. Maybe it just overpowers the Tanks but he could limit there number

But, while playing Germany, I always get seduced by the fancy guys and never have enough bullet stoppers.
Same thing with any Navy I control

Trout,

Can you give me feedback? I understand Beelee's suggestion for a tank general. I thought I might also add a commissar. But numbers might come in handy.
