@simon33 said in Mainah (Allies+19) vs Simon33 (X) BM4:
Possibly fatal in Iraq.
It was fatal.
Thank you for the game. I shall post.
-
-
I meant fatal for me!?
-
Perhaps you are thinking of sz99. That was a good one for me.
-
@simon33
Well - due to not winning in Iraq, you were able to sink sz 99.I didn’t notice that possibility when I retreated. So I played out the next 2 turns a bit, and I don’t see how the allies live. You will hold the middle east, and pressure Egypt. Now Egypt can’t send units to Greece, and the US alone 3 units a turn isn’t going to be expanding that beachhead. With the extra money from the mod east NO’s, Germany will win.
If the US keeps pressuring Japan, Japan will get knocked back, but g will win. If us switches back to the European theater - I know what you can do with Japan.
At least that’s the conclusion I came to playing this out a bit a few different ways. I think my Russia strafe was the mistake that I could t make up.
What are your thoughts.
-
Well I will grab Persia but Egypt will be a battle with 2 allied ICs vs 1 Axis one. I guess not many troops there. Perhaps I will take it and that would probably be fatal for the allies. I will eventually take all of China, Russia should be a bit more aggressive I think. Germany has some work to do to take back Greece and prevent any landings. But probably I will prevail in the end, is what I think.
-
@simon33
That is what I came to. The loss of the tt’s, and all the set back time wise that is, with the loss of some navy limits my options in the med for 3 turns, while the mid east is gone. Could handle 1 of those scenarios - but not both at the same time -
Yeah, thanks for the game.
