Southern France for Germany

@Cmdr:

Your post about the normandy fighter for England.  I’m not overly worried about it and I do not think that it’s worth the potential loss of 4 ground units to kill.

Figured taking Normandy on G1 anyway and killing the fighter is just a bonus. Of course my overall strategy is saving Italy and the axis winning Africa. With Japan doing their part in the Pacific then U.K. is pretty well tamed. Remember not playing for victory cities makes a different game. Heck, I dont even know what the VCs are without looking it up.

IMO Killing the Bristish fighter in Normandy will help Italy more than Germany taking southern France.  Southern France is a place Italy can actually help out with and, Germnay can’t afford to be building things in the Med. anyway.  They have both Russia and the U.K. to deal with.

If Germany has southern France then they are in position to help Italy if needed. There is also that bonus for Germany in Egypt. If the axis do not hold Africa then Germany will never be able to deal with U.K. plus the U.S. and Russia.

I’ve tossed in a few submarines in the Med, if only to keep the Anglo-Americans out.

Realistically, it is the easiest way to get a ground unit to Egypt and I am not a virgin in putting 2 cruisers and a transport in the Med so I can assist in N. Africa.  It’s worth 5 IPC for Germany and, coupled with the Med, 10 IPC + TT for Italy.  THen there’s the bonuses for the Middle East and, in Barbarossa, that’s a huge boon as well.
