somerandomguy Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Iwas wondering two things. First, how long should it take to get Poland to surrender? Second, how many units should someone invade Russia with(minimal)? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Ranger Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Poland - You should get this country to fall during turn 2 or 3. If you hit turn 4 your in danger mode as the Reds will be getting PO on turn 5. Invasion of Russia - Look at the 1941 senario, this will give you a good start on the Min to invade russia and where units should be placeed (though you can improve on this by running Hot Seat tests) [ April 09, 2003, 07:43 PM: Message edited by: Iron Ranger ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santabear Posted April 13, 2003 Share Posted April 13, 2003 You can also build "packets" of units to invade USSR. I like to have 1 HQ, 1 tank, 1 army , 2 corps in each 'packet.' You can build these around random German cities and operate them to the Russian border when you need more Lebensraum. Four of these groups plus an odd corps/army or two will work. If you can get five of those you can do a number on the Russian border units. Remember that an HQ can serve 5 units. These packets allow for an extra corps to wander through, or for adequate support of some air. Start your invasion of Russia with more units in the south; it's much easier to reinforce in the north. And get some corps/tanks to 'shoot the gap' between Odessa and the town north of it. The Russians can hang you up forever in there. Once you're behind Odessa, it gets easier. You just have to worry about that damn cruiser... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
