@krieghund Thank you very much Krieghund. This makes sense…

Italys success depends on Japan.
Yeah, this is another thing I have noticed. The main factor is whether or not Japan takes Calcutta. In a lot of our games, India builds planes and sends them over to Egypt for the UK to use against Italy. If Japan comes in and grabs India, and Germany is keeping UK Europe busy, then that means no more planes for the UK in the Med and eventually Italy will take out what UK has and start rebuilding a navy.

Does your UK player fall asleep at the table? I can easily manhandle Italy with UK using just the units UK starts the game with. When USA comes over on turn 4, Italy is in serious trouble.
-
Ya, but that means US would need to split income during the turns he is at peace if germ goes sealion. In the case of sealion, italy usually gets back on its feet by the 4th or 5th turn.
-
I think that UK has the advantages in the Mediterranean, and that Italy won’t have Egypt when the US comes in.
However, I have seen it all when it comes to rolls in the Med. I’ve seen all Italian naval units lost, save 1 transport, for 1 British destroyer lost.
I have also seen the reverse. So if Italy gets good rolls they can be a superpower. But if not, they’re in trouble.
