SbY (Al) vs CdS (Ax) Europe 1940 2nd


  • @SuperbattleshipYamato

    You may have noticed that you got a sbr run in MOS, normally MOS is out of reach from the bombers, but with the help of Italy its possible to reach it and devastate Russian factory to the point that you cant produce a lot of units anymore. So its necessary for each side (Axis or Allies) to help their partners achieve goals in defense or attack. Its like chess, each move (in each turn) prepares for the next and the next etc.

    No problem, ask anything you want, except for the # of my girl ;)

    I dont mind explaining, but I always feel that everyone plays with a strategy you cant fully explain and copy, because of countermeasures by your opponent and or switching dice results. Also its for sure that its more fun to find something of your own to surprise your opponents with. I suggest you play on in a game untill the victory is certain for either side.

    I concede. I now understand why people love Black Skies. More effective as an American strategic bomber strategy I developed myself (I never looked at the Green Skies strategies on this forum, so I’m not sure how similar it is).
