NEW PBM ww2 1 vs 1 Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I d like to start off a new PBM playing the ww2 scenario,
japan vs allies,

imo there s no use for giving the allies different players so it should be 1-1

i think there is some rumor that the scenario is unbalanced, pls show me that by playing the side which u think is superior

I m quite experienced at movin "future" units as on the ladder a future start scenario is very popular which is quite comparable to the ww2 scenario.

So i m looking for a dedicated player who got some experience at future stuff
(for sure i m also interested to play any other dedicated player too)

I dont think its unbalanced - just heard it
Japs got great advantage at start because allies cant move their units (lil tip - they can draft and move their drafties)

Afterwards allies are much bigger and should have bigger production
But I think both sides got their nice side

I d like japan

as the others are allied there s no use for more players - also for example dutch are quite small - so if u 2 d play each of u could take 2 ally civ like 1 china and us the other dutch and britain

Game started.

The Dutch had no fights.

The Americans did:

  • Sunk a Submarine north of Honolulu.
  • Lost a Wildcat over Japanese ships farther north of Honolulu.
  • Sunk another Submarine north-west of Honolulu.
  • And another one west of Honolulu.

Save to Grandpa Troll.

I have really the upper hand with japan start - took quite some cities - just figured that i could have sunken much more ships

u have now 1 more nonmove - but u can move your 1. turn workers and conscripts

some tips for u guys (not sure if u need em)
just stop reading if not


-we are in war - go wt - if u wana build a bomber - prebuild another unit
- most importent is to have loads of airfields - u can transport your units (at least the foot ones) over all the world - its possible to transport from numerious airfield at home to 1 airfield at the "place of war"
- draft like crazzy - conscripts are quite your only defence in the start
- buy units buy early - no need to save money - everywhere where´some production is allready in line and u need unit - buy
- organize techs
- US and Australia should try to keep a "forward base" where the bombers and other units from homeland can be transported and fight next turn right away

lets have fun

Yes. I will PM Rommel2D in a minute.

Tommy, please post battle reports. I know it is tedious.


Dutch:

  • Damaged a Paratrooper near Ketapang with coastal bombardment.

Americans:
  • Sunk a Transport south of wake Island with a Submarine.
  • Sunk CV Kaga east of Midway with a Submarine.
  • Sunk both Japanese ships just north of Honolulu.
  • Damaged some ships east of Midway by aerial bombardment.
  • Damaged Japanese units north of Manila. Attacked some but lost.

Save to Grandpa Troll.

lemme try to do battle report for the most important battles - took 1 us city near japan with marines - took another city with marines too - think dutch 1

in vietnamn i think 1 took 1 city with army which then moved forward to next city - u see it

the outpost GB city in china (right in my land) wasnt really coverd - 1 tank and 2 inf was enough to take

i made about 15 bomber runs and 4 artillerie shoots on the targets i hit afterwrds - lost a bomber bombin pearl harboiur
also my ships did some bombing

I think in all 1 lost 2 marines and 2 inf by attackin cities - which i could take afterwards with more units

i ll try to do more detailed reports for neyxt turns - but my turn took allready more then 1 hour i think - and i had to hurry to work - just having lunch break

You are quick, then. We have no way of knowing what forces the other use if no reports are made, so reports are crucial. Really, take your time.

My turns take about two hours in the other WWII game. I try to make really detailed reports:
