@naviator I think you answered the question yourself, if USA spends the majority of its money in the Pac, a savvy Axis player will conquer Europe rather easily.

Pejon_88

@naviator Not sure exactly what you mean. You can always scramble as the defender with an operational AB (i.e. max 2 points if damage). You can for example scramble during the US combat turn and then again during the UK combat turn if there are available/surviving figs/tacs.

I advise against bombing USSR factories other than Moscow. You want to grab the other factories with Germany asap and then you would have to repair the damage you, yourself caused. Also, there is the 1/6 risk of losing a valuable 14IPC bomber.

Naviator

@pejon_88 I was wondering, if I use airplanes to attack and non-con them to a territory with an AF, can I scramble or I cannot because they were in combat during that round?

My bomber wasn’t doing much so I decided to bomb the factory, you are using that factory, therefore I think it is a good move. I guess one could argue that since it’s a minor factory I am losing value and that you can ditch it anytime you want. I don’t think it’s necessary a bad move, in case it is, maybe just slightly.

Pejon_88

@naviator If you use them on say Germany’s turn and land them where there is an AB you can scramble them on any of the opposing countries’ turn, so yes.

What I mean is that you will grab that factory in two turns, which pretty much negates me building in it from R6 and on since you will easily kill everything left there when you arrive. Since USSR usually gets pushed back to towards Moscow sooner or later, I don’t mind that much building new units in my farther factories since the front will gradually be pushed closer and closer to Moscow it that makes sense.

@pejon_88 USSR fights a defensive war until it can get assistance from its Allies, unless it has already fallen by then hehe.

Naviator

@pejon_88 Yeah, I am familiar with the scenario. Usually British supply their Fighters to hold Karelia in '42 and USA goes also or to the Mediterranean. I just thought Germany here needs to defend more so than to attack USSR.

@naviator No, the “only” way Axis can win is by keeping the momentum. If you get into mid-game and it’s a stalemate, Allies will most likely out-build the Axis if they have a superior income.

@pejon_88 I would like to take a break from the game since I have upcoming exams, I hope you are okay with it.

Pejon_88

@naviator Yes sure. Good luck and play later.

Pejon_88

@Naviator when do you expect to play again?

Naviator

@pejon_88 Hi, expect a file this Saturday, maybe earlier. I hope that is okay, if not, I guess I could play my move tommorow.
