TripleA also has various versions and setup of the the game.
So you could start the 1942scenario or balance mod, or tournament rules.
Or even classic or revised.
Strategy Guide Global 1940

Remember:
UK should clear Africa from Axis troops - and transport 2 land combat units from Union of South Africa to India each turn by Strategic Rail Movement.That would bring the total amount of UK units fighting from India up to at least 8 units each turn (example: 1 Tank + 5 Infantry in India - and 2 Tank units from Union of South Africa).
That should keep the Japanese frontline units busy.

Ok. But what are the Italians doing to Egypt?
No pressure there then UK can send every turn
Shouldn’t be that way -
@general-5-stars
Yea - naturally it depends on which Year & Season we’re in - Late 1942, Early 1943 etc… and the overall strategies.
Anyway, the UK strategy should prepare for the transfer of units from Africa to India. The supply lines must be kept open.
This will also be part of the United Kingdom Strategy Guide which will be released in Late November or Early December - this year:relaxed:
-
Cool. Sounds good. 👍
-
@the-captain yea i’ve just been sending them to Egypt. Germany went big with Rommel and Italy sent all their Paras too. Good idea though on sending them to India.
Things should stabilize soon and Japan still hasn’t concentrated enough for an attack.
Back to the pesky Mongolians lol

@barnee
Did you use the Japanese Strategy Guide? -
@the-captain not really, some of it i guess. I just kinda been rolling with my base strategy from oob for these test games. I try to do a few things different each time for testing purposes.
Once I get through an entire game I’ll start mixing it up a bit more
-
Some shots from test Game 11
A prematurely formed Army Group South is destroyed by the Red Army in Ukraine with fewer losses than expected.
Confidence was High. Now …
Not so much
lol
Fortunately Uncle Sam brought some Advisers with when the Lend Lease Tanks were delivered. They’ve got the OK from Uncle Joe to go Hot and start offensive operations on Soviet soil
-
Admiral "Bull"Halsey is in command of the Naval Task Force in the Northern Pacific. He epitomizes US Naval Doctrine of “Always be Aggressive”. A clash with the Imperial Japanese Navy is inevitable.
Unfortunately for Halsey and the Sailors that serve under him, he has put them , and himself, in a questionable tactical situation.
:grin:

@barnee
…Oops… -
@barnee
You might want to check the US Strategy Guide again…:blush: -
@the-captain yea i figured a 50/50 battle but i spaced the new ships showing up. That and my trprts not taking any hits doomed them.
Anyway test game 12 underway :)
-
What’s wrong? I used the battle calculator and Japan doesn’t have a high chance of sinking the US fleet with the naval units shown.
-
The Fuhrer has ordered the execution of the Head of the OKW after the destruction of Army Group Centre in Western Ukraine. The Luftwaffe suffered heavy losses as well. The Italian Expeditionary Force was also destroyed.
2nd, 3rd and 4th Waffen Armies now comprise the bulk of the forces in Operation Barbarossa. Due to mass soviet conscription, the offensive has slowed to a crawl.
Guderian is pleading for Panzer Armies to be formed. The Fuhrer is inclined to listen.
lol
-
I guess that The Kriegsmarine will now have to save The Reich…
-
Is that an Italian paratrooper in Greece I see? Thank you!
How’s things in the Pacific going? I really hope that the Axis will win.

heh heh Adolf keeping the escape sub to S America handy lol
-
@superbattleshipyamato yea 1 in Greece 2 in S Italy. Want to hit Syria again, but might need to reinforce Romania.
Japan doing well. Still leading the Naval arms race. I’m not sure if I’m being to passive with UK but have to honor the threat by sea. They’re close to expanded offensive operations. Egypt sucking up the S Africa resources.
-
The new Transport rules still jack with me. I keep adding an Inf. lol Slowly coming around. It makes a Big difference : )
-
Wow DNG pretty brutal for ANZAC. Down to 8 bucks. 9 PU swing . Nimitz and MacArthur need to get with the program and help them out.
