Can't win a Global game with Sea Lion

@barnee thanks let me check that out

@colonel_sanders You also might enjoy looking over the past 2 “tutor” games, where players discuss rationale behind each move.

But by far the best way to learn is just play. Just post a message on the forums, and you’ll quickly find opponents.

Might not have been the wildest game , but my best friend has not recovered and still talks about how ridiculous it is, so he is the wildest part of the story!
Won D-Day with 1Art in St Lo(my only unit), when he probably had 15-20 units left all poised to conquer a vacant Normandy.
Might ring him tonight and remind him of it:
I love Axis favoured games.

Looking at it briefly, I have no idea how you get a winning team. Tis not obvious…

You’re now in turn 3?

I’d say wait with ships and build some defence if needed (or some air units) and some troops for South Africa. Meanwhile wait for USA to come and help out (with a sufficient warfleet en enough subs)

You can also opt to build up UK fleet in Canada, but don’t send them to their death

Just jumping in, since the water seems warm enough.

Are people trying to win as the axis militarily(meaning conventional forces/economy shifting) or by victory cities?

Just curious, cause if you don’t have to worry about future turns(by ending the game early through cities), you may be able to afford to give up certain ground and take unusual risks or losses to secure the cities in question and then see if the allies are in position to liberate one in time.

I’ve drafted and posted early ideas on unconventional strategies. One designed for Europe with a goal of 5 cities in 5 turns seemed plausible. My first live try failed, based on one particular allied response and a close battle being not close after dice were rolled. Am I giving up? Nope. I’m refining the strategy. (In this example, it is clear I must take Normandy if I permit France to produce units, as 3 carriers for the allies proved to be “a bridge to far” for the German air and naval forces.)

If any of you are in the Southern CT area and would like to stop in, we’re having a Global Party.  Right now we have 2 Global Games being setup and one AA50 Double Blind game.  We have 16+ plus people confirmed.  If we get more, we will be setting up more games.  It’s running from 9am to 9pm or when ever we get tired.

Contact me if interested.
