@flyingbadger Good stuff, well said.

It is difficult playing with Axis, but lots of fun. Practically every mistake is punished and it is much more difficult to get back after. With Allies, you can lose units on purpose, just to slow Axis down, and somehow win at the end. What is more, sometimes it is not even needed to win. If Axis does not break you down and take VCs, that is already 80% of winning. It is usually 30-50 IPCs different per round.

@simon33 said in L25 French Rebalance FlyingBadger (Axis) vs Simon33 (Allies+0) #1:

That’s a bit of a b’stard.

Yeah, sorry, that’s a hard hit on the Royal Navy.

Haven’t seen this attack against a Gibraltar stack too often, I think only once when I didn’t kill some subs which sunk the sz91 cruiser. Guess the bombers bought G1 make it more viable.

Wonder if I should have put a plane on Algeria to make the Italian attack less viable?

I think the bomber purchase makes it harder for UK to cover all the possibilities.

It’s hard to ignore the strategic bombing threat to the UK, so there’s a need to have some fighters there.

A fighter in Algeria would have meant Italy would need to more fully commit to that attack and not attack the French ships - which would then be available to reinforce the Gibraltar fleet and maybe discourage a German attack.

The troops landing in Southern France could have reinforced Algeria instead, but then the French ships would go neutral.

It’s tricky, especially with the sucessful U-boat attack on the Canadian ships, the UK is stretched thin. Not sure what a better alternative is to stacking Gibraltar though, attacking the main Italian fleet is dicey, and retreating to the UK and Red Sea gives Italy a lot of offensive options.

The attack isn’t without downsides for Germany though, it risks losing a lot of planes and some of those remaining are out of position for G3 moves into Russia.

@simon-tressel said in Post League Game Results Here:

I don’t know how many players play games in real-time. I believe most players here do either Play by Forum or Play by Email. I don’t think players hang out in a lobby looking for games either. If people want to play in real-time, they would probably arrange a time to meet with another player.

Some do but more on weekends, as you might expect. Most online players like revised for some reason.
