@me1945 When you took Spain, I was expecting you to go for London. This is an interesting move.
-
As you know I was off for a long while in the league. Trying to explore new tactics and have fun. Hope you will enjoy as well.
-
@me1945 I appreciate it. I’ve been thinking that my game has been getting a bit too predictable.
And I’ve never seen an Axis attack on neutrals in round 1. Its an interesting response to the Gib airbase.

From my experience UK fleet move to sz92 in R1 is the best one.

Still, what I did is extremely risky. We’l see.

Yeah. That is what I think too. But this is an interesting counter to it. Definitely risky and probably a move that requires a quicker axis victory or it will start to benefit the allies. But we will see.

Wheatbeer surprised me with that move once, too, but he didn’t have the logistics to follow up on it and miserably failed and the game was over after 3 turns or so.
However, against a naval G1 and against ME1945, who always loved to take SF G1 the Gib attack is more efficient with an extra mech in range.
I have to say, I would have certainly tried to attack the Italians at Spain with the Blue men. The French ground units have no better job to do and you can get lucky there and if R1 does not go as planned, you can at least save the blue fig. And in case you manage to retake the whole G2 is getting more complicated and more costly because the SF mech couldn’t have joined = extra plane, the Germans would have lost.

@jdow Thanks for the input, JDOW. Your retention memory is phenomenal. I should be careful with you … when you let me play again with you.:grinning:
-
@jdow unfortunately, that wouldn’t be an option here. The french inf were loaded onto the UK transport this turn so I wouldn’t be able to attack until next turn at which point it will be too late.
I’m not sure I would have done it anyway given that it was only 20% odds but certainly worth thinking about. Although it may have made most sense just to stack Gibraltar then with the fig and the french inf. I don’t think I was thinking too clearly on the French turn but I was mostly afraid of him setting up for an attack on London after and felt I needed to keep that fighter alive and in London. Although looking at the map now, I probably had options to partially block him if that was what he was going to do and so had some more flexibility.
Me1945 I have lots to think about on this move. There is a chance I will still get to it tonight, but it could take me a couple of days
