When I did the Russia only game it was originally to prove that Russia could not be easily defeated as Hirohito kept claiming. Every experienced player kept saying that Japan would be crushed and Hirohito kept insisting that it was easy. My PBEM ...

Patton landing at beaches further up the Italian peninsula? Hah! A pipe dream. Look at how the Anzio operation was botched much later. I have visions of vineyards filled with dead GIs and burning M4 tanks. Two flying armored ...

I think that Ceveld's point is really that supplies dictate strategy. If you want to win in warfare, first develop the logistical capabilities to support the widest possible choices of strategy. And ...

Hi, Both the Soviet and Chinese OB in the game are incomplete. In North China in 1941 the Communists had over 300,000 troops. (They had 400,000 the year before but during the attack of 100 Regts lost many. It took the Japanese most of 1940 to ...

<r> Hello All,<br/>
I have been researching Japanese sealift capabilities in December 1941. I started doing this because of a post I read somewhere in here, can't remember where that said "most japanese players land triple the historical number of troops in the phillipines....Japan lacked the ...

<t> Hi All,<br/>
I am wondering how much 100 objective points are really worth. There are two considerations to this question. First, in the campaign game scenario the Japanese player starts off the game with several units at 100 objective points. The question for these units is: Are the objective ...

Rememeber that surface groups must both end their turns in the hex with an opposing unit (and must detect, leaders must attack, and a bunch of other stuff). It's not easy to get a surface intercept.<br/>

It's also probably harder to get ...

I have noticed in my playing WITP that there is almost no ship vs ship combat. This may be a function of my style of play. I tend to mass Land Based Air, then advance short distances under cover of LBA.<br/>

Also you have to choose where to icrease your industry. Singapore is the closest place with HI from your resources so it may be a good idea to build it up as much as you can as it vill be relatively safe from allied air power and you should ...

<t> Hello All,<br/>
I have been working on increasing HI, and I compared this to compound interest on an investment. Say you increase a location that has an HI of 30 to 60, it will take 30 days to actually come online, because the 30 additional HI will start out damaged. But, at the end of the 30 ...
