Axisplaya (Axis) vs Wheatbear(Allies) G40-A3

@VictoryFirst

It seems the Allies are skilled Sub hunters so far. At least that helps to even out the Sea Power disparity in the Atlantic.

After that round, I’m good to move on to the next game. No use playing this one out any further.

@VictoryFirst said in VF (Germany) vs. DoMan (Allies) | Original Europe OOB, Game 2:

Thats why I suggest for the next game we start from this save file.

Atlantic Fiasco.tsvg

As the name suggests, it’s basically a G1 that has a more or less average EF, but a terrible Atlantic.

I appreciate the offer, but let’s start from scratch once this game ends. As strange as it sounds I have more fun playing around in these completely FUBAR (that saying might not resonate well with a non-native English speaker, sorry) situation than in completely on-rails ones. If this third game does not work out at all we can just play with TGC’s recommended balance to see how this strategy does in a more reasonable initial position.

Moscow battle: -28.78 / -52 (this one doesn’t really matter but I’ll still include it)
Total: -142.09 / -85

Well that TUV Differential went down fast after the Belorussia battle lol.
