And not keeping the fleet in z98 makes using air on Cyprus rather fishy, since they have to land in Syria. Then we need to stack Syria with some land, which loses a lot of momentum. It’s pretty messy.

[trulpen]

If there’s a build of 1 art, 1 sub, 1 des in Persia, the fleet will be rather secure in z80, but not without bringing both subs from z98.

Haven’t looked at what the situation will be in NW Persia with that build.

I’m leaning towards land-builds, perhaps a sub in z98 and keep the fleet there, thereby securing Cyprus and not risking air against the des in z92. Also prepares for a crush of the italian fleet, which is good.

I really like the idea of pressuring the japanese fleet by India, but it just seems too costly to achieve in a good way.

This is the revised CM.

Keeping the fleet in z98.

Adding a sub to z92.

Was almost sending a fig from Moscow towards Caucasus to land in the ME, but decided that we need air in the EU. It’s more crucial not losing our footing there.

Lost the bomber in Ukraine and the sub in z92 (happy not to lose that fig!), but otherwise it went rather well. Think it’s pretty secure in all spots.

I don’t want the italian sb to kill off the russian mech in Ethiopia, so supported it with another mech. Thought about putting yet another one there, but think it’s overkill.

In the same manners I don’t like the threat of Italy grabbing Alexandria, which makes the fleet unstable. Maybe it’s a ghost, but I anyway put three land and one fig there to secure it.

[trulpen]

The 4 inf in E Persia seem to be needed more in Persia than in W India, but I’m not fully sure. Will check again. We don’t want to run out of units to contest Calcutta.

Forgot to move the bs to z33. Now it’s finalized.

Looks good.

I’d be a bit nervous about NWP since it looks to me that he has enough to take and hold it if he commits the Japanese air as well. I don’t think you need the inf there and that inf is better conserved for attacking NWP after. You don’t need much to shift the scales on NWP. And I don’t think you need to protect Alex. Or at least you don’t need so much. That fighter and mech are better to have to support a counter on NWP. I might be wrong that NWP is, if safe, a good move for him. It does allow the Soviets to push back and pulls units away from Japan. But I would be nervous about him getting Persia and Iraq out of this.

He also can possibly destroy that fleet, but it requires him to commit the Italian fleet and then risk German air.

I also don’t think you need to keep air in Norway to protect it. Any attack by him risks trading his air against your land units. With two air there, that battle is not certain for him and even if he wins, he on average loses out on TUV. And although I don’t see him attacking Moscow, I prefer to keep those odds lower. And you get another fighter to support a counter on NWP. One option here if you want to do both is to keep a UK fighter and send a FR fighter back.

It might still have been early to do the Navy build in 80. But just to explain stacking Yunnan. He either attacks India by sea, or through Burma. If China can threaten land units in Burma he can’t go that route so he has to go by sea. The fleet in 80 means that in order to use transports he has to move enough fleet to protect them. That pulls fleet away from the Pacific and means that the US can threaten more there.

That pulls fleet away from the Pacific and means that the US can threaten more there.

I’ll look again, but when I checked NWP looked like a crushing battle (like 90 %) if G went there. Maybe the two sb turn the tide? W India is safe, so perhaps put all 4 inf in Persia then?

After your explanation I understand the logic of Yunnan. I’ll have to think about that one. It’s good if J is committed to using fleet only for Calcutta. At the same time the fleet in z39 is safe now versus the UK-air. Would’ve been very different with navy in z80.

If J goes to Burma with the small stack, perhaps it’s an idea to go down to Yunnan first then? It means the units either has to make a stand in Calcutta and likely be obliterated or that they have to simply retreat to Shan state. For this to be feasible, UK needs enough power to kick ass in the turn after. Likely possible with the tanks and mechs around, so don’t think we need 2 more inf in W India now for that purpose.

Regarding z98, the fleet will sure take some commitment to destroy. Perhaps UK should not allocate the fig and the mech, but be satisfied to keep 2 inf there? Then he’d have to allocate his sb, which makes an attack on z98 even more suspect. Think there’s a 75 % defence if Italy goes all in. Could save the left-overs if Italy doesn’t (easily) control Alexandria.

On the other hand, 2 more inf towards NWP will certainly be valuable.

Already sent 3 figs towards Finland, so no way back to Moscow since there is no ab in Norway.

Think Moscow has a 80-90 % defence with the french fig. It would be a desperado if G goes for it, and I would be happy if they did. Of course, things are starting to look rather bleak for ze nazis.

Ok, un-finalizing and looking at this again.

[farmboy]

@trulpen I might be misjudging. It looked like your odds were under 50 if he brought the SBs and the air in 39.

The concern around W India is both him to committing to an attack on it, but always making sure you have enough units that he can’t safely stack India. He can put 9 units there now. But it looks to me that you are fine and you could probably pull inf from W India to Persia.

My calc on Moscow was about 33% for him. This is one of those situations where I am fairly certain he is not going to take that risk, but my anxieties lead me to put another unit to be safe.

I think stacking Yunnan can wait another turn if the fleet doesn’t go to 80. It does hold back Japan’s income where it is now, and forces him to commit air to Anwhe

Did the changes. 4 inf to Persia. Also 2 inf to Jordan instead of Alexandria. Thought about it and if Italy goes for the fleet, we’ll be all the more happy for it.
