IMG_9437.jpg

This is my first go at ignoring 110, and I’m sure each time I give it a go I’ll make some changes. There is a long term strategy beyond G1 but that’s beside the point.

Germany lost 5 planes without attacking 110. 3 of those came by joining the battle of 109 with 3 subs - I intended to lose those 3 planes so I would most likely have 3 subs convoying London for up to 8 dollars and that is what happened. Sending 3 subs to 109 forces UK hand to send all 4 fighters to scramble - you don’t even have to worry about 111 scramble as UK can’t afford to not send every single fighter to try to eliminate as many subs as possible. 3 subs should be able to convoy off 8$. The lost 3 planes were worth it for my strategy - and I knew the planes I added to the battle would take out some of the scramblers - they took out two. German subs got 1 hit, 4 ftr and 1 destroyer got 3 hits which all went to planes and German subs submerged.

Why does attacking SZ109 with subs force the UK to scramble into the SZ? IF you attack with 3 subs and say 3-4 planes im not suiciding my planes for your subs.
This also frees up the plane in 111 to scramble and do real damage. Your only attacking with airforce you committed at least 4 planes to 109 so you can only commit 5 to 111.

Convoy damage is annoying yes but im not trading planes for subs.

If you don’t scramble that’s fine. I save 3 planes that way. 111, you can only scramble the scotland fighter. Germany loses one extra plane maybe two. That’s a win for Germany - instead of losing 5 planes to accomplish the same feat, they lose 3 or 4.

@dazedwit said in Red Skies:

@shadowhawk

Like I said, lets bring back the Youtube wars. Each country films their turn, uploads, next guy goes. I could play a ton of games online but I will lose interest 10 minutes in and check out. That’s just me. If it were Civ II I’d be up until 3 in the morning playing lol (wow that memory brings me back to 1997).

I think the last Youtube war I saw was 1914 beta test and that was super exciting watching the event cards being pulled - and Russian Revolution happening on earliest possible point because GHG rolled a 12. Communists getting such an early start turned them into a giant.

It brings a lot of challenges though, first you have to video parts, then put them on youtube and then the rest also in parts.
Say for example you attack SZ110, then you have to first ask me if i want to scramble.
Then after you rolled your dice you have to ask me what units i want to lose. Sometimes its obvious what you want to lose but not always.
And you need to keep the board setup for a long period of time, i can keep a board up for 1 week maby 2 but thats it.

And you have to document and comment every move, on video its hard to figure out just how many units are where. Once you get over 20+ its harder to see.

So its much easier to just play via tripleA, i did that a lot of the time because travel makes real board just difficult.
