The Kwangsi airfield really helps but your success attacking Yunnan was enough to keep me out anyway. I had not thought about that airfield in this version.

@leemorrison Germans lucky in NOR,

@The_Good_Captain

You really need to show me how to play the Axis in Classic. So far I have played several solo games as well as games against other players and the Allies have won all games without too many problems, except for one where the Axis got extremely lucky.

It is this very moment where I am clueless about what to do. Both Germany and Japan have their supply lines up and running and have pushed as far as they can, but they still face an economically superior Allies with a TUV gap that keeps getting bigger. How does the Axis make up for this? Should it have been more aggressive or efficient in the early game or is this situation normal and is there a way to stay in the fight?

I am now trying this Eastern Europe - Ukraine split as Germany. Not sure if it will work but I can’t see another way to gain the advantage.

I’d be happy to play you as the Allies after this game. Please show me how a grandmaster plays the Axis! 😁
