A call to arms

Alright, who wants to beat on me? [:D]

Following the discussion on the main boards about Axis auto-victory being too easy or Japan always invading Russia, I've taken it upon myself to prove that it isn't hopeless for the Allies. Hopefully, I'll inspire others to develop better Allied strategy.

Focus on the Med, delay invading Russia or do a 2-way Russia squeeze. It's all good. I want to be convinced that the Allies are underpowered.

My only requirements:
- FOW off (if it's unbeatable, you have nothing to hide [;)] )
- Auto, Area Supply are determined per player ( I like them on)

I'll be aiming for a turn a day, but sometimes work keeps me VERY busy. I can't promise there won't be delays, but I'll promise to keep you up-to-date if I see I can't make a turn.

Finally, I'm aiming to experiment with different tactics to counter the Axis moves. I'll document as much as possible, but I'm not aiming for the win or bragging rights, I just want to see what works and what doesn't.

cool. My email is daskomodo@gmail.com.

Just to reiterate: FOW off, 1940 setup, I get WA/Russia/China, you've got Germany and Japan. Waiting for your file.

Offer is still open to others. When I have time, I have lots of it.[>:]

Hey Iriedel, did you set this to basic supply? Because I don't have any little trucks.

Took a quick look before heading off to work...

I doubt I will be able to decline the invitation to visit Scotland ;)

And I doubt that the Royal Navy in the Northsea will be able to stop the Kriegsmarine after the Luftwaffe has had some fun ;)

Turn is up...

Hmm, interesting, it looks like the WA's are spending a vacation of their own in Norway and Portugal ;)

Sadly the Whermacht failed to move into its planned summer ressort in Cairo ;)
