    Do answer my question:

    Which is better in your opinion? G2 or G3?

    Are you talking about a G2 or G3 attack on Russia?


  • @SuperbattleshipYamato

    It all depends on how the situation is on the rest of the map. If the Russians are gathering at the border, then you might consider a G2. But if UK is heavily into fleet, close to Western Europe, you might consider to focus on that in G2. I prefer a G3, because I need to prepare for it, with air and other units (from Paris) and purchase. Plus I also need the help from Italy and make sure I have them to clear the way on Russian soil.

  • @SuperbattleshipYamato

    I also believe that a G3 is better, because it doesn give Russia much time to get Iraq and other territory’s that are pro Axis. The Russians shouldnt have lots of PU, if you go to soon, you might not be able to counter their NO’s (for example: sub in sz125)


  • @cds

    Yeah. Odd then that my G3 was “too slow”. I see your purchases were quite different from mine? Is that the key?

  • @SuperbattleshipYamato

    Yes, its not so much which turn you attack (altough, like I explained, all conditions most be perfect, when you attack), but the way with which you attack. I believe that you need units that are mechanized and supported by air too quickly push into Russia. If Russia has the chance to stop you at Bryansk, your attack (taking MOS) is most likely doomed to fail. Because at that time you are getting two fronts (perhaps even three) East and West. My goal is to get MOS in R6, R5 is even better! I still believe that if both sides (players) are equal to each other, or the one playing Allies is a little bit better, the game can continue after the fall of MOS.


  • @SuperbattleshipYamato

    You may have noticed that you got a sbr run in MOS, normally MOS is out of reach from the bombers, but with the help of Italy its possible to reach it and devastate Russian factory to the point that you cant produce a lot of units anymore. So its necessary for each side (Axis or Allies) to help their partners achieve goals in defense or attack. Its like chess, each move (in each turn) prepares for the next and the next etc.
