I recently played my first alpha 2 game, and it did at much needed balance too the game buy lessening of the American war time economy. Also with the addition of infantry and fodder to the german war machine. Anyways, in a regular A&A Europe 1940, if the axis don’t have the game won on turn six is practically impossible. This is because on turn seven, even an incompetent USA player will have enough amassed force to destroy a province and gain a foothold in europe which is the end. The only chance Germany would have is if they control russia and have all their forces in france and central europe.

Yea I thought that two, but he gave a detailed account of the historic 3 prong attack that Germany was making on the 3 Russian VC’s as well. He also seemed to be conflicted w/how Jap is doing in the Pacific. Maybe he’s playing by himself, just testing different strats (something that most of us have done). Just think he can say its for work, the rest of us just seem crazy to our families :roll:

Yes many jokes have been made at my expense for playing myself.

My bet would still be for Russia because even though he does speak well of how Germany is doing he seems to be even more proud of the fact that Russia has held out for such a long time and is still very strong.
