    They ran out of bullets.  But that’s okay, because I supplied my guys with rocks!

    So, how’s the arguement that Russia cannot hold against Germany and Italy for 10 rounds going?  Think we busted that myth yet?

    if by “hold” you mean “survive”… it’s a moot question. if by “hold” you mean “defeat”… the jury’s still out. british help from india is going to be necessary, but it’s available, so the odds of my getting that 8th vc in volgograd are looking slim…

    very nice russian defense.

    By hold, I mean Russia preventing Germany from winning before the Indians and Americans can come help.

  • 2007 AAR League

    Without British help it would be difficult. But the name of the game is “Axis and Allies,” not “Germans and Russians.” 'Twill be difficult to take down the red bear… I am finding in just the few games I have played that this is tough for the Axis to win… :)

  • '18 '17 '16 '11 Moderator

    Yes.  And it drives me absolutely insane when people say “Oh Germany can beat Russia easily” etc.  Sure, in classic, revised, a little harder in anniversary, but it’s rather difficult in 1940 to take out Russia with Germany!

    It can be done.  It generally requires Japan to invade heavily and Italy to threaten Caucasus hard along with a German take down of London, but it’s not “easy”

    seeing as how i have no earthly idea how to play this…
