@gamerman01
Sorry almost forgot to post about this.

Much as Andrew said, I would add that the German troops went south to Russia, allowing the British planes to hold with the Russian stack at Bryansk by turn 4. This would stop the effectiveness of the Italian can opener, however, I understand the trade-off of going south to allow Russia to hold Ukraine a turn earlier.
Taking Berlin helped, but Andrew did mitigate it as much as possible trapping the British fleet for the rest of the game in the Baltic Sea.
I have lost countless games to Andrew over the decades most of them were quick victories for him so this was one of the few.
Excellent play all around looking forward to the reverse challenge.

@Myygames Thanks. I’ll try to do my turn tomorrow. Had some family issues that took and will take some time in the next two weeks.

@SuperbattleshipYamato Game History
Round: 18 Puchase Units - Ottomans Ottomans buy 6 infantry; Remaining resources: 2 PUs; Combat Move - Ottomans Turning on Edit Mode EDIT: Removing units owned by Germans from Persia: 2 artilleries and 1 infantry EDIT: Adding units owned by Ottomans to Persia: 3 infantry EDIT: Turning off Edit Mode 1 artillery and 7 infantry moved from Mesopotamia to Persia 4 infantry moved from Ankara to Mesopotamia 2 infantry moved from Smyrna to Trans-Jordan 1 artillery and 6 infantry moved from Constantinople to Ankara Combat - Ottomans Battle in Persia Ottomans attack with 4 artilleries and 15 infantry British defend with 4 artilleries, 2 fighters, 8 infantry and 8 tanks Ottomans roll dice for 4 artilleries and 15 infantry in Persia, round 2 : 5/19 hits, 7.67 expected hits British roll dice for 4 artilleries, 2 fighters, 8 infantry and 8 tanks in Persia, round 2 : 6/22 hits, 8.67 expected hits 6 infantry owned by the Ottomans lost in Persia 5 infantry owned by the British lost in Persia British and Ottomans reach a stalemate . Battle score for attacker is -3 Casualties for Ottomans: 6 infantry Casualties for British: 5 infantry Combat Move - Ottomans Place Units - Ottomans 6 infantry placed in Constantinople Turn Complete - Ottomans Ottomans collect 20 PUs; end with 22 PUs
Combat Hit Differential Summary :
Ottomans regular : -2.67 British regular : -2.67
OT 18.tsvg
My new philosophy is such: the CP always lose from the UK pushing from India through Constantinople, and thus something needs to be done. I thought that, if I could take Russia with enough units left over, perhaps I could afford to extend that front instead of just hauling everybody back and be useless for 4-6 turns. That way I am utilizing all my pieces sooner and extending the Ottomans’ lifespan. I have also had a few lucky roles, I admit.

All that to say that the CP in my experience always lose on the eastern half of the board and never the western. The Germans and Austrians have time and the rules on their side on the west; I can spare units for Persia as long as I continue to slightly outproduce Italy at least, that way I can still eventually take Rome or threaten Paris from the south. Those are my thoughts. I don’t think you mishandled anything, per se, but I am liking my new strategy, at least for the moment. It will lead to longer games, but perhaps some CP wins.

@Cornwallis said in Allied Playbook - G40 Collection of Essays - Compiled by jacobgeo24 Nov 18-19 2023:

Some crazy thoughts:

Do you sometimes buy R1 a sub or destroyer to convoy germany or liberate sz125? I think de 6 or 8 IPC can be earned back quickly?

Do you sometimes take greece on UK1 when doing taranto so the UK fighters on the carrier have a place to land and to force germany to send troops South to attack greece and thus buying time for russia?

I like crazy thoughts. And encourage it. Though when ABH talks…people (better) listen! EF Hutton commercial from the 80s. Wargame it. See if a 50-60 ipc allied bid can make that work. Then do a youtube video on it!
