G40 Whitmann (AXIS) VS. JamesAleman (ALLIES)

@leemorrison You’re being polite. Yes I got my bomber and some air shot down during the first two turns but I overextended very badly with Japan, mostly because I underestimated the value the tanks would give you in terms of exploiting openings in my positions.

A.H. always has that 600 lbs. gorilla on its back(Russia), how would the Allies do if it is just Italy, U.S.A., &, British Empire. True the Brits. would help establish naval supremacy, but, except for some initial reinforcements from Egypt, would it be enough to save Rome? The AH Empire has a land presence surpass by Germany only, &, have to worry only from an sea attack off Trieste, or, by land via Albania. Are the Allies up to the challenge?, we’ll see, A.H. versus British Empire, Italy, &, U.S.A.

Round One: Keeping a sufficient naval and land force in Trieste, to deter any Allied naval attack & landing or a movement from Albanian, A.H. Empire builds trooper, gun, fighter, 2 submarines.

Movements, maybe soon a pre-strike into Albanian, but, for now, forces from Trieste & Tyrolia attack Venice, 12 troopers & 4 guns versus Italian force of half that size. Losses Axis 5 troopers & Allies all, Venice has fallen!

British Empire builds 3 transports & 2 fighters, transport from Egypt leaves 2 troopers in Piedmont, &, C joins Italian Fleet. Also Canadian transport with trooper & gun & C, and, Indian transport with trooper & gun & C & BB sail for Italy(capital ships will join up with Italian Fleet). Finally from home islands transport with same & BB & 2 C depart for Italy.

U.S.A. builds 3 transports, BB & C heads for Med. Sea.
