I find it strange. When you pursue a break-through, you seem to achieve it rather easily.
When I try I just find a brick wall and have to resign the effort.
I was pretty confident to be able to break down Cairo this turn, but when at the moment it just seemed undoable.
the genius of experience at play ;)

Btw, you never gave me a lesson of hints and tricks after our first game. :crying_cat_face:

No, wait, I think I had to leave more inf in Jordan. Think you had a can-opening with the French, right?
-
So logically 1 inf isn’t enough defense against 1 inf + 1 fig. I’ll just correct that, because my edit of I during G wouldn’t be fair.
-
Think you had like 6 aussie figs there as well.
Think the simplest solution is that I cancel that italian edit and just put the german panzar where they are suitable, protecting NW Persia and Jordan.
-
Think I have to take a break. Was counting on US being able to attack NW Persia with 7 fig and 7 sb. The ones from WG won’t reach though.

Or simply genius?
Btw, you never gave me a lesson of hints and tricks after our first game. :crying_cat_face:
so we’ll start with a few points in this game:
- too many factories! G doesn’t need that many facs on Russian soil, as it already should own 3 of the Russian ones, plus output fast units from Berlin. G benefits greatly from having lots of fast units, particularly mechs. J doesn’t need so many facs either. 2 to 3 should be enough. Later on those same facs can be such a liability, as you can see now, as they are easy juicy bombing targets for the allies.
- too many tanks! G benefits more from having a greater number of mechs. tanks are expensive, but the ratio of mechs to tanks should be much higher.
- Italy should have been playing a bigger role in helping to defend the western front, so as to free the germans up to do more offensive work in the east. your push to grab the Middle East took away from this defensive role for the Italians, when the germans could’ve easily overtaken the Middle East and then placed a much bigger pressure on egypt.
- where are your can openers on the eastern front??? that’s a HUGE factor in a successful eastern operation, as it really helps to keep the Russians subdued.
- Probably too much navy for the euro axis… this one is debatable I suppose, as I too like to buy navy, but it can backfire in a big way if you’re not carefully planning it out for the long term, as what happened so far in this game. Just be extra judicious about your naval spending! :)
- stop rushing your turns and especially, playing so late when you’re tired, as you’re making loads of mistakes. as I said last time we played, you’re definitely a sharp player, i can see a lot bigger potential in you, but you can’t be making so many mistakes. slow down and play more carefully, give more thought to your turns.
That’s good enough for now :)
