There you go! Perfect choice.Mark Stevens said:Or maybe that one bonus panzer that appears if London falls - you could argue that that is less likely to be needed, and there isn't much justification for it anyway? That seems to be the best candidate.
True enough. It's been a while since an Axis opponent activated Spain. Viri just did it to me, and I was surprised how many French forces I received. Seems to be quite a few more than I remember from last time 'round - but that was quite some time ago.If the Axis player always mobilises Spain just to get Gibraltar and activate that one panzer corps, he'll face the loss of the not insubstantial Vichy forces and their replacement by the Admiral Darlan French. Is that one corps so vitally important in a game of this size?
Sounds good to me. (I hope you weren't being sarcastic, lol)I'm hoping that by having the 1930s Soviet units mobilising the Axis Pre-War Build Option isn't going to be such a regular choice as it seems to be at present. Hell, since we're giving the Allied player so much extra metal, why not make it another experimental OKH Panzercorps? Damn thing's pretty weedy with its Panzer I & IIs anyhow. Poor old panzergrenadiers.
Are these including the changes we discussed above, like the London Pz Korps, dropping the PG in favor of a Pz, etc?Mark Stevens said:Attached are zips of the proposed scenario and briefing revisions.
Land attack from Africa? I hope those boys are strong swimmers!Mark Stevens said:(Incidentally, in case I've given the wrong impression in earlier posts, I wouldn't consider Gibraltar to be a Mediterranean 'island': it's a key port like Alexandria, and for the purposes of a scenario of this scale, open to land attack from both Europe and Africa.)
Sorry - couldn't resist.Mark Stevens said:I'm talking balls re Gibraltar, aren't I? It's only connected to the north.
Not enough airfields for that, barring some massive attrition of the Luftwaffe.Mantis said:Mark, are there any restrictions to Axis air in Africa, following the line of reasoning that we've taken? I mean, the entire Luftwaffe in Africa is a stretch - what's your take on it?
