@dazedwit Again, only if only subs survive. The Axis must control Gibraltar at the beginning of Germany’s turn in order for its surface ships to pass through. See page 9 of the Europe Rulebook.

@dawgoneit do you mean the one in Ulaanbaatar? Yes, he has to land there. Came from sz5.

tough dice this game.

@Jacob16 all good. I didn’t want to edit one there in case i messed up some how.
thank you kindly.

@GeneralHandGrenade

I’m playing a solo game where UK is using Middle Earth to turn India into a fortress. Japan did kill Anzac first. After UK took Persia turn one, Italy took Syria turn one, and Germany plopped $30 in Southern France to help Italy take Persia.

It’s now an arms race. Germany has factory in Egypt, Italy has factory in Iraq, and UK has factory in Persia with transport shucks of troops from South Africa.

US started out all Pacific, but on turn four realized Persia might fall so built a nice fleet with 3 trns in DC to go help UK.

All the builds in Persia meant for India are now forced to sit in Persia. It’s UK5 now and there are two ftr in Persia that I want to send to India but feel they have to stay to defend Persia as most likely I5, G6 one two punch might take out Persia. India is a rock but spread out too thin -now and landings can be made between India and Persia with little resistance - these two territories were supposed to be stacked with troops from Persia build.

Japan took all of Australia and NZ on turn 5, US took Iwo Jima. Japan wiped out the final China territory and has six tanks there 2 spaces from Stalingrad.

I have no idea where solo games will end up as I’m playing each country with their own strats. When UK started Middle Earth I expected a wall of fodder from Persia to Malaya to hamper Japan. Game turned into a global war over Persia.

Japan is the quickest to take out Persia if that’s your game as it’s possible they could do that J3.

Axis may take Persia next turn. If they don’t there will be another 6 tanks coming following turn (and planes). Even if Axis ends up not being able to take Persia, they have effectively ended its support of India by turn 3-4.

Germany taking its time getting to Moscow and Japan prob going to help them hitting from the east. If Persia falls Moscow will be hit from 3 sides, and then Calcutta from two sides.

Italy and Germany focused on Persia, Japan may get there in a few turns if they want.

If the Axis focuses hard on Persia, it cripples Middle Earth.

edit: UK Pac dropped an AB in Ceylon with 3 anzac ftrs, and 3 UK ftrs in India along with UK, Anzac, French ships so no amphib landings for Japan on Calcutta. I mean, they could try but will lose a large chunk of their fleet doing so.

UK also has radar and has been purchasing one AAA per turn, including one for Persia turn 3. Hitting at 2 turns the AAA into a game changer.
