voncasey Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 My latest email game of waw found Italy come in early for my axis opponent because i didn't know about the Cairo script (allied unit must be in Cairo to prevent early Iti activation) Anyway, he is coming through Switzerland to get at France, before taking the low countries, which seems kinda wierd. has anyone done this as axis with success, or are there any long term negative aspects to this for axis........seemed like a good activation hit for the allies usually i leave Swiss Miss alone the whole game as axis ps man these minor country forces are weak.......seem weaker than sc2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_j_rambo Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Ah, can't say I've tried it in a real game, don't see the value. Mountains, Diplo hit, etc. Just pound LC & the French with Air, Ground, and send in the Panzers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voncasey Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 yep,didn't think that made alot of sense. then he just came through belguim with half his units.........maybe trying to decoy but heavy price took out the swiss armies without much fight though, thought they'd be tougher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scook Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Why smash Swiss troops when there are perfectly good Frenchies to overrun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funks Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Because the swiss cheese has holes in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
