And that is it.

Was the Netherlands INF placed in Rotterdam?

Does CW any INF on a TRS that can return to Rotterdam? If so, then that unit will let Rotterdam remain Allied, if it is allowed into Rotterdam.

I live next to Asterdam. So i hope to see you soon.
It would be fantastic news if the Russians declare war. I really hope so.
They wil lose in Manchuria. And its winter also.
When i play Germany. My goals are take Paris at least in Jul\Aug 1940. And never ever use an offensive chit before Barbarossa.
Barbarossa starts in may/june 1941.
How do you think about these topics?

When I play Germany my goal is to take Amsterdam by Jul/Aug 1940... assuming I haven't lost the game already. I tend to use up both offensive chits in the west and then forget all about Barbarossa - what is that anyway? I've heard of it but......

You know that song - it goes 'Bar-bar-bar-bar-bar-barossa'.

Yes the INF was placed in Rotterdam. No, there should be no more CW TRS or Liner available to reinforce. Of course the Dutch do now get the benefit of CW aircraft and shore bombardment and the snow means -2 level on attacks.....

So if Amsterdam wasn't captured? Then the INF in Rotterdam can just move into Amsterdam and fight with defensive support from CW?

Otherwise I see little point with the Dutch INF being placed in Rotterdam. [&:]

It was a good move. I had a guaranteed taking of Amsterdam if he'd put it in the capital - and only a minor chance of being disorganised. This way there is an opportunity for the Dutch to impose losses on the Germans.

Fortune may favor the bold, but fate favors the wise.... I like using the surprise round of italy on the British in the med. I got 2 1-10 splits on a surprise round and killed 2 double-loaded green carriers and a Mot loaded 4-4 trans. Songs were sung, let me tell you. Didn't see the British in the med for 18 months and let the Italians feel like they were mighty for a year.... (as righteously garrisoned France....).
