A&A North Africa - RLP game 1 - ITA3.pdf Ok, I’m exposing myself to public ridicule by posting the situation of my first ever game. We started and stopped the game at the beginning of Italy’s third turn (we’ll continue from Phase 1 of ITA3), I took pictures of the various areas and then uploaded the setup to the file I’m attaching. I’ll try to give you a brief account of the first few turns (from what I remember), to report mostly my impressions. I’m the UK, as I anticipated. Gross errors are evident on the map, errors due to not knowing the map accurately, not being able to create deep strategic plans yet, not being able to predict the long-term consequences of the various maneuvers having to, in these first games, take into account all the rules, the peculiarities of the new units and the combat/supply/convoy mechanisms. For example, I did not mine the border between Tobruck and Bir Hacheim, concentrating only on the Tobruck-Benghazi border and thus allowing the Germans to enter from the South undisturbed, or like the gross error by the Axis to leave Tripoli undefended for the English Scout Car (which was in the Sahara Desert J). The Axis took away my RPs from Malta by bombing it, but I took it back by purchasing Destroyers and submarines and by converging the English fleet of Gibraltar and Egypt around Malta, protecting the English convoy of Malta and managing to attack the German convoy (3 inf and 1 tank will arrive in Benghazi, the rest were eliminated along with the Italian escort). I imagine I will continue to invest in the Navy and any Aircraft for Malta, hoping to be able to slow down the Axis on the mainland and Mersa Metruch to resist as long as possible in Cairo. The point is that, as I have said several times, I still can’t figure out what the most effective combination of troops is both for the attack and, especially in the case of the UK, for the defense. However, it seems clear to me (but this is my first impression) that the only chance of victory for the Allies is (as happened historically) to have control of the Mediterranean to block the convoys and therefore the supplies of the Axis, otherwise holding Cairo I think becomes impossible, perhaps even after the entry into the war of the USA. I imagine Italy will try to overcome the problem and I think it will focus on the restoration of its Navy to counter the English one and try to remove Malta’s support from the UK. This, however, will inevitably take away troops for Africa and I don’t know if the German, (almost) alone will be able to take Cairo (every turn gained works against the Axis due to the entry into play of the USA which will open the second front). I imagine we will replay a few turns in the next few days and eventually, if you want, I will update you. In the meantime, I hope to receive some of your considerations.
