Had a game Saturday. The allies conceded on turn 6 after Italy’s turn. Germany took Moscow on turn 4 but lost Paris on turn 4. Germany had to decide which way they were going to go. After a general’s meeting it was decided to go for Moscow. Germany also influenced Spain.
Germany was able to to take back Paris on turn 6.
Also what helped axis was Germany had sub Interdiction and was able to wolf pack for most of game. Allies dice were on the weak side for sub kills this game.
Italy tried to take back Spain on turn 6 but the dice gods showed up and came up short.
But then Italy was able to take a 5th oil Territory for a point and Rostov for another point to get the win.
Germany also captured the new capital on turn 6 against Samara and get another point.
Maybe Russia put to much into fighting over Leningrad
early and not using those extra pieces to hold Samara and retake back Rostov while still protecting Stalingrad.
hey Russia’s a player in game even after Moscow falls.
They still have a lot to do in this game.
In the mean time Allies in the Pacific were getting back points and making a great push on Japan but would come up a bit short even though they got back 3 points and axis had 30 at end of turn 6 for a win.
The orange chip on pacific side on map represents the Japan naval fleet which is not in pic but in upper right corner some.
Another great game. We played drawing 2 event cards per turn. The neutral cards were great to. US got both Venesuala and Colombia to join their side for an extra 10 icps per turn.
Only changes is swapping out a few M> Bombers for Stg. Bombers and making the US UK NA bombers cost 9 instead of 11 based on they had a lot so this gives them a slight better chance to buy more Stg. bombers.
The one pic of battle board shows how the FEC and China were able to do a joint strike in Burma to get back Rangoon which is worth a point. Based on LL.
The bottom pic is of 6 of 7 generals. I took pic.
