Marines, Winter War or Blitzkrieg

Post by Longasc »

I just reached Tokio and my force is better than it was when I started playing OOB over a year ago. Yay! ;)

I am about to wonder what my xmas campaign should be. Finland because of the snow, or Blitzkrieg or Marines first. I am not too eager to play the Japanese Campaigns atm.

I would like a campaign with fewer units to move, so maybe "Marines"?

I reckon the Japan 1941-5 campaign is really good, so that would have my vote if you would allow it. I haven't played any that you do allow, but I think issues are still being sorted out with Blitzkrieg, so possibly Winter War? A video of that one made it look pretty decent.

BNC, your thoughts are very much appreciated! :)

I just finished the US Pacific Campaign (had to restart, my save was bugged for some reason) and will now go for Marines or the two Japanese Campaigns. Lost an Elite Infantry on the Eastern Peninsula and a Destroyer to a kamikaze sub.

Given how much trouble one unit in my rear caused (by cutting supply lines) I wonder if I will be able to do something like that in Blitzkrieg with tanks - or if the very same rules would force me to a careful crawl as some complained.

Anways, guess the Marines are next. Maybe Rising Sun/Morning Sun, let's see. :)
