    I’ll actually ask for a casualty choice here given the makeup of the forces, especially because you’re online…

    9 hits is average, what do you choose?


  • Loss all the ships, except the battleship, just damage that. Also, loss the two US fighters.

    922df2d2-3b9c-43e9-ac13-acb0c0fb80ac-image.png


  • About average in 92, but extreme luck for Allies in Iraq!


  • Unbelievable. I barely took Iraq and Persia, all mech and tons of tanks lost, literally.

    There is a lot of responsibility on the Russians now!

    But I think the back is still broken…

  • But I think the back is still broken…

    Yes, this is an accurate assessment. There are german troops in French West Africa, and German tanks in Iraq and Persia, with no Allied troops to stop them.


  • Was it the South France carrier trick that did it?
    Disappointing way to lose a big navy


  • Was it the South France carrier trick that did it?
    Disappointing way to lose a big navy

    I didn’t spot that as an option. Was hoping to keep the threat of the transport in play whilst I built naval reinforements, and those forces would have been needed to move to the Middle East if you kept up the mechanised push through the Caucasus. Those land units are now pretty much useless now in Gibraltar and Morocco.


  • I had to decide whether to build the 3rd carrier just to catch one plane, but I didn’t like 95% odds. I can be glad 92 didn’t blow up on me the way Persia and Iraq did.
    Remember UK1? It seems the UK has my number this game


  • Actually, stack on Gibraltar keeps me from passing through which is actually pretty big, but of course I know what you mean

  • Moves get too big for me after a few rounds,

    Went with original plan, transport from Hong Kong to Singapore with 1 man to Shan, instead of grabbing 2 off Japan to Jehol.

    I thought I had 3 transports aimed at India, but when I held Carolines back and then also one from Hong Kong, it got too thin
