Sombra Posted November 17, 2004 Author Share Posted November 17, 2004 Arghh, the combined might of ships and AF had been very hard for the allies this time. The italians built in secret some subs.

Sombra Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Some more comments: Time end 05.1940 . USA is around 20%??... and UDSSR 48%. I am a little bit surprised by Desaix aggressive Med play transports landing in big numbers, AF in Bagdahd etc. LR AF killing 2 of my guard ships in the MED together with newly build itlain subs. Still my fleet or what is left from it is somewhere else then the Med. Because I didn´t knew if Desaix would go for quick sealion. Hopsfully the vodka addicts will get aggressive very soon...

Desaix Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I did couple of errors (like landing betwen Cairo and Suez) that allowed my to learn some more tricks from Sombra ... The rest of Irak operations and med operations went well... I missed by a couple of turns a very nasty counter, I thought about it to late... Next time I see an Italian gambit I won't miss it Despite of this I am still confident as I am preparing... something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellraiser Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 @desaix ... got an icq no? @sombra >>> why do you always have to do Italian Gambits against new players?

Sombra Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hellraiser, this strategy is dangerous and far from perfect I need victims to optimize. But hey it is fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desaix Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Hehe, yes your Italina gambit is pretty good so far, but it can be improved, especily in having the same results at lower costs imo... Yougoslavia joined allies, toke unprotected Albania but uder attacked this tunrn, captial weakened... Bergen uk corps slaughtered... Bagdad surround by terrorists, rescue is coming... Still preparing christmas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sombra Posted November 19, 2004 Author Share Posted November 19, 2004 Irak shot free by the last unit strengh 1 :eek: . If not next turn most probabl this unit would have been killed anyway by the evil itlalians sitting in the dessert as the allied troops do. Anyway I have been very lucky in my dessert campaign. I learned a lot for next time. Axis contiunues to build ships. It seems that London in the end is still one of the mayor tourist attractions in the world? More transports at the african coast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sombra Posted November 19, 2004 Author Share Posted November 19, 2004 Yupp, airfleet stands now in Irak. Why didn´t you send two AF down? Irak cut off again and allies happly demolish parked planes in the desert. Yougos fight on. Monty looses some coffee as the axis shows LR2 and hits his HQ. Sub north of Scrap Flow attacked by three ships and an AF but still floats around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These preparations toke a hell of time, but here we are ... @Sombra about AF : one was enough to hold Bagdad, as some ground toops were on the way...

Sombra Posted November 21, 2004 Author Share Posted November 21, 2004 Here we are, don´t know where these pesky AF are if not I don´t like visitors in Scotland and would have sunk them. Lets see if he is serious with the landing. Can´t believe it I am losing the landbattle in Irak. No damagr in 5 attacks with ground groups on his AF.

Desaix Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Visitor landed in Scotland and some more are coming... Luftwaf raided Scotland to: 1 RAF destroyed, all the carriers had to do interceptions... Killed one Bit corps running away in the desert, another Uk corps down to 1 next to Bagdad... Don't worry , underestimating Irak battlefield is a common mistake as we can see in the news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
