Caspian sub people, where did you go?

@Craig:

I never do the Ukraine attack.  I don’t feel comfortable with my USSR disposition after that, win or lose.

Of course, the flip side of that is, I get very happy when I’m playing Germany and the USSR leaves Ukraine alone!  I’m sure you feel stronger as Russia, but Germany is stronger too.  Who gets the better end of the tradeoff is a judgment call, of course.

I can’t speak for the CSub folks, and I’d be interested to hear what approach predominated for them, but personally, whether I send 2 or 3 tanks to Ukr is the sort of fine-tuning that depends on how aggressive I feel on a given day, what I know about my opponent, which way the wind is blowing, etc.  :-)

Low luck, I go with 2.

Re. pure luck, after playing the game hundreds of times I’m still on the fence.  If I go with 3, that should cost me an extra inf in West Russia.  But 3 also makes the Ukraine battle relatively secure–you have to have some awful rolls to lose that.

I wouldn’t try a triple in regular luck.  If it goes bad Russia is in rough shape.  Might be worth trying in ll.

What happened to all of your CSub articles?

I had some of them published here but then I was asked to remove them. Now the group is defunct but are the articles still around?

Hey DJensen.

Yeah, some sparks flew back in the day amongst a few folks in this forum, so we wanted to part ways  :-D

Csub has closed shop, so if you want to post them here feel free to do so.

Peace

Feel free not to include the India paper… :evil:

Yeah that India paper needs an edit.  It’s like 5 years old no?

I don’t consider India the optimal Allied strategy, but I’ve been beaten by it enough times to realize it is a workable strategy.
