Hey guys, I’m pretty new to axis and allies (I’ve been playing for about a year now), and I always struggle with Germany’s first move. I’ve read don’s essays concerning a&a, and there he says its a mistake to attack Egypt on the first turn. There is one problem though, if you don’t attack Egypt, the English sub in the Suez canal can go trough to attack your transports in central med, which is a problem if you battleship is destroyed in the battle against the English battleship in Gibraltar… How do you guys solve this problem?
