Game ended with Axis victory. Thanks for the game!

Agree. Back then, it was easy to get technology bumps. Germans came into Russia with +3 Tigers, then +4 Panthers way ahead of The Reds by difference of at least 2. Was a slaughterhouse, the Tanks were like Brad Pitt in Fury, waxing the board. Played one game against HamburgerHill, dude have +5, in ...

I just came back to the game after a long hiatus, so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I agree that it is time to reconsider the 1940 attack. The USSR gets more MPPs, US diplomacy is affected by japanese gains in China, paratroopers have been neutered, and I think I read something about rando...

i think that the earlier proposed fighter changes are fine, but i wouldnt want to reduce them to 1 strike as some others have recommended in the past. the fighter change will probably result in needing to repair the strategic bombers more often, which will slightly slow down an allied railroad shutd...

IIrc according to a statement by Bill a while ago, AA values of ressources do only count for half their numbers when defending a unit on top of the ressource. I was wondering, why a British Naval bomber gets predicted damage when attacking an empty port while the bomber would dish out damage when y...

Should focus on bombing be on strat bombing be on France? I've seen some players use them in Turkey/Southern Russia as well. strategic bombers are generally used for 2 things: 1. reduce MPP, so that could be french mines or oilfields in the USSR/middle east 2. cut supplies - this makes it difficult...

heavy bomber tech and max strategic bombers is definitely worth and should be a top priority. ive seen some players skip advanced tanks as the USA and just go heavy into infantry, but im not sure im ready to make that jump. Honestly I'm still not very impressed by production tech, but not sure Id c...

OK - is investing in level 5 bombers and building three for US worth it and what do you not invest in to fund it? heavy bomber tech and max strategic bombers is definitely worth and should be a top priority. ive seen some players skip advanced tanks as the USA and just go heavy into infantry, but i...

definitely not worth if youre trying to protect from lvl 4-5 strategic bombers, as theyll raze anything to 0 supply. but i like to use them after the ussr falls in key cities or fortifications to protect hqs and fighters from allied tac/medium bombers

Mobility upgrades are gradual after barbarossa, dependent on unit position, supply, weather, MPP constraints, and month. However, I like to start at least with mobility on manstein HQ as well as my experienced panzers. Sometimes I will put it on experienced armies, as the 4 movement really helps the...

Hamburgermeat - Axis

Axis tactical victory.

Very entertaining game from opponent who fought to the last turn in May 1947, allies needed just a bit more time

ELO Ended Decisive Allied victory HamburgerMeat (axis) vs Redrum68 (Allies) Very good meticulous defense by my opponent. With the buffs to the USSR, weather changes, and national morale changes, a pure barbarossa strategy is very risky as it requires consistent momentum. While my opening was success...

Don't ever change bud.

Thanks for your response. He definitely loved every second of it, even if the gaminess made him a bit nauseous

I'll be sure to check them out.

Thanks for your response.

Yeah I imagine that most of the paper wargaming community migrated to computer wargaming. I'll be sure to check the values of each of the games (eBay probably the best bet?). I'm happy to donate whatever doesn't have monetary or sentimental value
