SZ111 - Scramble. OOL - tip BS, Cr, DD, BS, F
SZ110 - Scramble all 3. OOL - sink the boats 1st.
SZ106 - Sub fights. If you hit & I don’t, sink the DD & submerge the sub. If we both hit, sink the sub.

@gamerman01 Makes sense. 4 subs will on average convoy away 8 IPCs-6 to take out 12 if you have Yugo + Greece.

OK, figured it out between putting in tater tots and then shrimp. The other foot will fall on G3. I can’t let the 2 transports and carrier go, simple as that.

Italy normally has 8 and 4 subs would usually stop them all but not always.
Germany’s 4 would always be lostSo 4 subs takes away all 12 every turn usually
But with all 12 Italy, 4 subs take 8, and even 6 subs can’t surely take it all away, just more than 1/2 the time.
Other considerations, you mentioned German ability to build facilities on Greece.
Italy taking Greece, Germans don’t have to go down there and take it, they can get in Russia faster
But Yugo to Italy normally means some Yugo guys get to fire twice. -
I didn’t explain it very well, but all Italy definitely means more money to the Axis every turn, and/or more Allied ships to stop it. It’s just painful to see some subs getting convoy damage 2X every round.

Is there a post I missed with NCM or are you still working on that?

I guess history has to wait.
An Axis and Allies board is no match for a wife. Or a cat. -
@gamerman01 haha! Well as my Marine friend tells me, most of war is “hurry up and wait”, which I think play by post gets accurate…🤣🤣
Enjoy the drive! 😉

I have to say BM/PtV have really spoiled me on just how much more space there is between some of the objectives like Moscow and Berlin; India and Japan. I’m not respecting the Axis enough and it’s already looking a bit grim to my eye
