  1. Currently Axis vs human Allied

    started barby june 41, approaching Leningrad and Stalingrad and Smolensk (i think the center city east of Minsk)

    took Cairo and Alexandria

    Diploed Spain and have Gibraltar

    Questions:

    1)when should i attack mid east.......should i wait til US joins? i am also investing 3 chits in Diplo with Iraq (currently 80% from coup)

    2)how far is recommended for Barby before winter hits? do most players usually take Riga and Odessa?

    3)would it be worthwhile taking Portugal with Spain? or Vichy? US is at 61 now

    thanks

  2. Along the lines of the spain/Med attack:

    Gibraltar seems pretty reasonable attack......just pound with air, then attack with tank and army until it falls

    but what about Malta........how easy is it to take. it seems my opponent operated his corps off the island so can i just amphibious attack with an IT corps or does the port need to be disabled first

    i faintly remember trying to land a corps on an empty malta in the past and it wouldn't unload but it think that was sc1

  3. Hi

    just returned to the game, haven't been on since SC1

    Current player vs player game and i am axis, july 40, italy just joined and my Kriegsmarine is in ruins due to UK massing all ships/sub around the island but i think they lost 1 carrier and a couple cruisers

    i am about to take Paris as it is surrounded and only has a corps defending

    axis has lvl 1 air, lvl 1 heavy tanks, lvl 1 all inf boosts

    uk has lvl 1 air, but not sure what else

    italy has GLR 1

    i was considering sealion but brought my navy in too soon

    question: Spain or 'what to do next'

    i placed one diplo chit on spain and got a hit for 36% about 4 turns ago so they have been 76%since that hit. what are the chances of spain coming in axis (in your guys experience) and is there some other factor that may turn them axis.........such as taking paris. as i am thinking about running through spain to Gibraltar and through the Med.

    Also in the North AFrica.......is it best to ship German troops from Italy or use Italian troops or a combination as i know it is a pain to get them back to the eastern front in time for Barbarossa

    basically, do i need to waste another chit on spain and hope it hits and looking for general advice

    thanks
