Well, there was always the option of not invading Russia, something you're forced to do in SC. Sealion could have been a go, given time.

Lars vs Stalin's Organ AAR
Lars replied to Lars's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Stalin invades Norway. And gets denied. Now he has a bit of a "situation" on his hands. Major mistake here. He only hit it with the Paratroop and bombarded with one AF and one CA. Came very close though, knocked the capital Corps down to 1. Bet he wishes he'd added an amphib or another AF. Didn't launch any amphib up the coast either, which was lucky for him, as there was a welcoming party sitting up there. Both Norwegian Corps reinforced. UK carrier fleet comes in, dings up a cruiser, spots sub. UK cruisers go for sub, but the little bugger dives twice. Perhaps I should have killed the cruiser off, but I think you gotta kill a sub when you get a shot. Just bad dice rolls, oh well. Brest holds out, Iceland comes over, and Iraq convoys start. UK mpp take gets a major improvement. :cool: -
ALLIED 'STRATEGIC BOMBING'
Lars replied to Retributar's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Oh, I agree. Think we discussed this before. I'd like a popup with some variable amount of info (correct or not), not full disclosure. -

How about India? The ultimate safe haven. It ain't even on the map. -

No, but the Mosquito zipping by afterwards usually did. -
The RN useless
Lars replied to Agamemnon's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Oh yes they do. You leave the subs out there at supply 0, they're toast. -
Heh, if you're referring to this review. Yeah, I always expected that from my panzer divisions. Hubert, fix or do somfink! A review full of gems, but this one at the end is priceless. Doesn't even finish the game, then passes judgement. Too bad he doesn't write for a real magazine, the editor could have fired him.

I see Peng people challenging around like regular people
Lars replied to stikkypixie's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Yeah, but you were impressed by the wisdom of Alfred E. Neuman too. -
Been pushing for this one since CM came out. As is, I just put them all in one folder, then delete old files when it gets too full. Not the end of the world, but a minor hassle. Think Hubert could write a simple script that would update the file names though. (Gamename)001 +1, that's all we need.

ALLIED 'STRATEGIC BOMBING'
Lars replied to Retributar's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Don't forget the cost to the Axis of having to invest in AA, upgrade all those targets, and perhaps having to keep an airfleet or two in France. -

Damn osprey. After having caught you, it could have dropped you further away. -
Good news there. Timskorn, yeah I was wondering what the heck the US was doing down there with a DOW and no immediate invasion. US is just sending corps up to Algiers one at a time, where even the Vichy can handle them. Needs to move a HQ up there. Also had a Brit D-Day around Brest. All and all a great mod though. I'm having real fun tackling the USSR. It's been back and forth.

Lars vs Stalin's Organ AAR
Lars replied to Lars's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Boozy. Poor typo there, eh? This turn Stalin finds a UK Corp well dug in at Brest. BB's sail out to try to add to his pain. USSR gets Heavy Tank 2. Last time was Infantry Weapons 1. -

It's quite. Too quite... USSR gets (censored). -

Lars replied to Lars's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Hey, the Danes didn't give up! You bombed the snot out of them! :mad: The surrender monkeys go down though. Hard. Stalin's winter offensive paid off in spades. Didn't get a single Free French out of the deal or a chance to get the AF out of there. Stupid Frogs... But made him work for it at least, he did get bruised. Hope the plunder doesn't repair everything in one turn. UK get Long Range 1. -
Moving bomber from canada
Lars replied to Titan's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
Believe it was a game balance issue. The Canuck bomber is strictly for scouting for subs. -
Good mod. Had a Torch, then another landing further up the coast in Algiers. Russia seems much tougher too. Only niggle I've got is the US event popups have no text displayed.

Level 5 Tanks by Jun 1941

Ah, non-consumable chits. Yeah, that might throw things really out of wack. -
Level 5 Tanks by Jun 1941
Lars replied to Axis_General's topic in Strategic Command 2 Blitzkrieg and Weapons and Warfare
No worries Dave. As for the tech, it might be overdone, but I'll have to play a few more games to make up my mind. To get level 5 by june 41, that's 625 mpp he poured in there. I figure that's two ubertanks running around, but quantity has a quality all it's own. Might come back to bite him hard in Russia. -

Germans go through the French like bad brie. Would have been like bad Camembert if the tankers were still around, but they pulled back to put the wheels back on. French navy gets their revenge by hitting all troops in Denmark and the Danes continue to hold. RN hits and runs as there's no point in sticking around, the Kriegsmarine has wisely run away. -

Check, got ya Dave. My wife did the same thing for awhile, and the new step-daughter will be doing the same this summer. No stiffing the waitress from me. Or hitting on her either. Or I'll have a high heel up my *ss. -

Had pretty close to that happen to me as I left the DOW to as late as possible while I fought a naval war. The Bear left claw marks up and down my back.
