Problem with HoI is the realtime thing. Otherwise its a great game. I would like to see those features in a turnbased corps-size game of the whole world during ww2. Like War in russia on a bigger scale.

Yes I think the marketing of this game is should be way better. Focusing on the playability.

Interesting thoughts.
-
I consider this an axis win if the game should not continue. If Britain falls early enough theres no way in hell russians can help out as US probably will fall soon. Cause when US falls it´s all over.
It´s not even sure the germans will surrender if russians take Berlin.

Brian, But if Britain falls...will not US fall soon after? Russia needs 5-6 turns to get close to Berlin, by that time it might be all over?
-
Well even if the russians get into the game...its a long way to Berlin and some corps can buy Rambo valuable time. What a thriller

Its almost 5 am here in Sweden, but I cant stop watchin this action

Yes Brian thats the spirit!!!
Fight to the end, never surrender.
Remember; Napoleon lost the battle of Marengo at 6 pm but won it back at 7pm!!

Impressive Rambo. After readin about your games I startin to believe that your foremost qualty is using your resources and force at maximum.
-
Yeah, I never even considered launchin a sea lion.
Sven, should you as axis buy airfleets right away or invest in research?
-
Brian seem to do well but Rambo is a fighter. This is gettin exciting
-
But is it worth operating airfleets for so much MMP:s to win near trieste? Oh well I thought of that but got careless. I think Ill try that someday.Originally posted by JerseyJohn:Kuniworth
After my Taranto fiasco, which as I said was similar to yours, I automatically assume the Allies are out to sink Italy first priority and pull it's ships all the way back to Trieste in the northern Adriatic. Try supporting it with some air units and make the Allies come to you; they'll be low on supplies and you'll fare better.
-
Well I dnt lose any ground units but Taranto was such a massacre, so the Med seem totally lost..Originally posted by JerseyJohn:[QB]Kuniworth
If you're the Axis (or am I missing something) and you're okay in France but lost the Italian fleet, you're not in such bad shape. Italy's navy, in the long run, doesn't decide much. I had a similar IP game, lost the Italian Navy at Taranto, and ended up in good shape.

However Sven, how do you counter a british-french blocade of the italian fleet? I dont really know what to do there.... :confused:
-
Well I suspected that your aggressiveness would have turned you a little weak. Your atlantic fleets must have been pretty damaged. Hood was down to 4, a carrier almost wiped out in the battle of Jutland and Royal Oak sunk. Im happy with the atlantic battles.
However, the battle of Ardennes made me frustrated when I never could breakthrough. I think the best thing to do when you get a stallmate is to regroup, take your time and hit hard. I just scratched your troops and got into an unnecessary battle of attrition.
-
MY CONCLUSION;
I consider this game as lost. Sven's aggressive play surprised me a lot and got me into situation I never encountered against the AI. In Poland I could have done better. And I should have smashed the allied defenceline in the Lowcountries much more earlier.
My biggest mistake however was the debacle at Taranto. Because of the fog of War I never saw the eastern fleet-unit in the british-french blocade so my sub ran into an ambush. And then I hessitated if I should retreat or attack. All in all it was awful. I damaged a british BB and carrier but couldnt sink a ship. Disaster....
Game this afternoon
in Strategic Command 1
