P z B Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Started my second game from 39, increased difficulty level a notch, +1 exp to the Allies. Again I found the conquest of France, Norway, Denmark, Yugo & Greece very rewardable. I was still able to finish them all by summer 41. This provides you with a 440mpp's, that's essential for your survival. Especially since the Allies love to invade France heavily from mid 42. I chose random settings for all major powers this time. All German allies joined within 2 weeks of the historical dates. USSR declared war on the Axis 22\6-41 Beat me to it... The USA still declared war on me in the last day of november 41. Spending 1000mpp's on tank, AT, jet & rockets in 40 is also invaluable to handle the Reds. The russians are hard to kill with a +1 exp and they deploy rocket arty as well. I've almost been on the verge of stalemate a couple of times, but each time elite pz armies and good air\arty support has saved my day. Nothings like cutting of half of the red army with 4 tank groups and forcing him to withdraw his airgroups and cut of units Seems like you have to be a bit gutsy to get things moving again! The Mare Nostrum...as Muso loved to call it <G>, is actually rather simple to turn into a Italian puddle in this game. Killing of the allied fleets and occupying Cairo gives you a possibility of transfering most units East\West. I've even taken 3 BB's and a sub into the Atlantic to help the Germans stem of the waves of suicidal allied armies landing around Brest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arax3 Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Axis forces blockaded East Coast of US/Can for a couple of years until Amis developed long range jet fighters. Drove the U-boats back quite a way. For a long time, UK lost 40 MMP per turn and no AMI/Can forces were able to force their way into England. Partisans are a real pain in the ass. Italy conqued Iran and moved north. Will Turkey and Spain join the Axis or will I have to conquer them? A3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl G. E. von Mannerheim Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 This is +1 in favor of the allies?? :confused: What are they, daft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
