RE: German Openers and countering them
Based on my experience with you I’m pretty sure you’re more experienced than the AI (even “hard”).
How did your game with mike64, a player supposedly on the same level as you, go?

RE: German Openers and countering them
Show/tell me the game. I really want to know how you won.

Have you accomplished that?

RE: Anzac Shuck Into Europe
I agree with the main points you made in the Pacific.

RE: The Italian playbook
Grabbing Southern France and Greece isn’t enough to get that 5 IPC national objective. You also need Gibraltar or Egypt.

- I haven’t heard of that Straun Opener before, but it seems to have a lot of potential. I’ll try that sometime.
- You’ve been able to win as the Allies? I assume that’s with bids? It would be extremely impressive if you could win out-of-box Global 1940 against good Axis players. I’m asking because if it’s the latter, I’ll beg you to spill your secrets.

RE: Anzac Shuck Into Europe
My point is that having France go first but not letting them attack Italy is pointless because they won’t be able to do anything otherwise except maybe buy 3 submarines or 6 infantry (not insignificant extra units).

RE: Anzac Shuck Into Europe
Again though, what can France really do other than hitting Italy? All they can really do is delay the inevitable. It’s basically impossible for them to build a transport to evacuate their troops as the Luftwaffe can reach anywhere they build.

RE: Anzac Shuck Into Europe
Why not? Because it makes Italy too underpowered?
Frankly unless they’re destroying Northern Italy the French get very little to do.
