Re: Mussolinis War
*whips out a cattle prod* Anyone care to share some thoughts or comments? I'll be playing over what happened the other night tonight, since i finished my CMBO movie (posted in the CMBO AAR thread) and have lots of free time tonight once i get home.
My plan is the following:
1. Double or Triple the Forces to attack Gibraltar.
2. Rush for Paris (in attempt to keep Southern France, and not have to give it to Vichy.
3. Rush to Alexandria along coast. Once Alexandria falls, any British troops to the West will be 100% destroyed (no retreat).
4. Grab as much of Yugoslavia as I can.
Now...my thoughts on my plans.
1. Gibraltar must fall!
2. Should I even bother? Vichy gets all that territory, and I can grab some (for keeps) by going up the West Coast. I think I will do that and 'Liberate' the Basques in Spain. They get like 3 territories, and they do share whatever Tech they research with me.
3. As long as i have enough troops to prevent a breakout, this should work. Alexandria is the key to moving further east...the territory below it is inaccessible (some Sand Desert) so for the British to retreat East, they literally have to go through Alexandria. This can eliminate close to 8 British Divisions if i do it right.
4. Once France falls, Romania and Hungary join Axis and i noticed them massing to attack Yugoslavia. I can redeploy my troops there and go for a land grab (expanding IC etc) and to allow for better positioning to attack Greece. This then gives me plenty of opportunity to attack Turkey (who would join Allies) and open up a whole new front in which to attack Russia....
