Im too new at this game -- either start over or redo the German turn. Sea Lion was the goal but I was not aware that you could prevent the fleet with one paratrooper hahahahaha
-
Of course, knowing that, you would try to actually defend England, lol
I dont really care either way - start over or give the Sea Lion a go.
EDIT BETTER IDEA, let's try sea lion anyway. This way we can learn what works and what does not. Maybe moving the fleet to northern england will work !
I'll give it a try and see what happens
-
EDIT - Let's try northern England just for fun.
We can start another game in any case. If it works, then you will not want to play without the UK
And if it does not, then the game is a bust

Haha, Panzer has burt me with that move a few times!

@johnnycat If you want to try the sea lion, feel free to edit the para to Paris, placing the IPCs as infantry there, and editing down the UK IPCs
This will let you get the boats out at least - still not the most fun situation for Germany
-
@johnnycat Yeah, it's very unforgiving, compaired to the original version.
It's hard to come back from not taking France in G1, in my friend group we always roll Paris first so that we don't have to reset the whole game board
(FYI I wasn't sure your target - London or Leningrad hence the USSR destroyer)
-
@Alexander I have been playing with guys in Europe getting me ready for the tourneys this fall.
And they ALWAYS do Sea Lion if the UK is left "undefended" like you had it. So I just wanted to try it for fun. I didn't realize that 1 para could close the fleet.
Anyway the game we were doing was far better and I had the quick capture of UK been successful I would have suggested we go back to G3 and this time NOT buy the boats.
BTW that move to let Italy take Paris is a key strategy that I rather like to use often.
-
Like I said, I want to learn as much as I can before the tourneys so little tricks like that are great to learn so thanks for that. I had no idea of that trick with the 1 para. And we cannot do a northern UK version either now.
So what you want to do ? Start a new game or let me redo G3 with either a sealion operation that doesn't get stumped by a 1-inf move or redo G3 with the original long game in mind ?
