Strategic Bomb Germany or Italy?

Just wanted to thank everyone for their input. Obviously, opinions are varied on this topic.

PS. I saw someone messed with my Karma yesterday. I thought my posts were innocent enough.

check there for optional rules

Corsica was Vichy, but in 1942 Hitler got pissed off and took alot of their allowance away because they kept waving white flags when the Allies attacked them. Corsica was administered by Germany but its really in the Italian sphere of influence.

i know its nov 42, but still close enough… if your more of a purist then just give Sardinia 1 IPC but call the actual land territory

“Sardinia
Corsica”
  1IPC

that’s a good point, rockrobinoff. if there was some serious attempts at SBR’s on Italy’s already small economy, then the invasion through Italy becomes much more viable

@tin_snips:

you could, of course, look at it from the perspective of each side. whichever side controls the oceans, wins the game haha  :-D

glad we agree on that note  :lol:

Danke!

I like that.

The bombing runs and the damage markers give you some flexibility – still painful as all getup, but a great new addition to the SBR rules.

@AxisOfEvil:

So those damage markers stay on for the duration of the game?

Until they’re repaired.

@AxisOfEvil:

I think we all agree that the OOB rules on SBR in revised was broken. You could reduce germany to no income, and the game would end soon after that. So there was no way i wasnt playing without TTL. this new game throws TTL out the window.

Not entirely.  There’s still a limit - it’s just bigger.

@AxisOfEvil:

Does this new SBR strat break the game again? Germany would be pretty crippled, if the allies had a goal of keeping 20 markers on berlin, and 12 on SE.

I sure hope not!

@AxisOfEvil:

Or wait, where is germany second IC, do they have one?

No.

@mwindianapolis:

I would not think that italy should change sides. But it would be fun if italy could be it own side, and try to take over the world independant of germany and japan. long shot, but a true gammer could try.

Thats 2000 years too late    :roll:
