Why do not you play with Morris?
Let us learn about your ability to command!


Thank you for the offer, but unfortunately I'm only able to play two games simultaneously right now and I already have both slots occupied with a game against Plaid and Panzer General. Furthermore, I'm not a "strategy guru", only wondering how reckless Morris plays.

Ahh, I beg to differ - You are a Jedi 'Master'. Of this there can be no doubt...

Your humble apprentice.

Max, if you accept armistice, all axis troops from Vichy africa will leave the place and go to force pool.
So landing them will be way useless, if you will accept french surrender.

Since you've spent so much effort in defeating the French Navy I think you reject the French Armistice offer and annihilate all French units in France. The British fleeing should be able to catch and destroy too.

If you only DoW Denmark then the Norwegian garrisons will be at full strength and not get a surprise loss. That's not a big deal and you can deal with Norway in 1941 if you want to. Since the RN is so weakened I don't think they will interdict the Swedish iron ore route yet.

Thats going great so far ! Well played!
Morris waste french fleed for nothing, like he strongly believe that noone will ever reject armistice. If so, he will also not do suicidal attack with Paris defenders, so you will have as much time, as you want for NA campaign.

Will you be able to mount good barbarossa in 1941 in case you want it?

Yes i know... Honestly i never had any other ideas than french surrender since the 2nd turn when i saw how Moriss was playing. I was just putting some desinformation for Moriss or others that could give him the informationto think i would be doing so. Some of the other stuff i am saying in my AAR is also totally false or bluff, just in case i have unwanted readers.

As to Norway, i think i will forego it just for oil reasons... Yougoslavia i will attack for the very samereasons, to get full produciton from ROmania as soon as possible.

North Africa is mine.

Turn 19: Allied collapse continues.

Post by supermax »

I dont know what Moriss is thinking at this very moment, but he is in a very large heap of troubles.

Now all forces and PP concentrated on Russia. English expeditionary force will finish the mopping up and then will be transferred to the Mainland while GAR will replace the occupation of England, for now. 1 Little operaitonleft in Yougoslavia. Start next turn? When is it possible to activate Hungaria and Romania? Wasnt it august?

In North aFrica we are exceeding all hopes. Moriss isnt even trying to force a surrender!

I suspect that expects your invasion of Russia will be delayed allowing him to build up a very strong Russian army. I'm guessing now; but this coupled with a very strong USA will allow him to wear you down, run you out of oil and then eventually win.

As a person who's game with morris is now in late 1941 I can say (looking at UK units), that he only build air (dog fight) labs and general (organisation) ones. Looks like he is indifferent about UK land units, and so he don't care much about their fate.

If you will establish naval superiority (which is not so hard against totally reckless people) Morris will have trouble shipping his fighter hordes from Canada anywhere.

Did Morris make his challenge to prove that the Axis cannot win in CEAW-GS? If so, the proof isn't in yet.

It´s not over yet. Remember that max early wins now will probably come back to haunt him later in the game. Since he has been spending a lot of oil he needs to be real careful not to run out. Or focus on getting another oil supply.

There hasn´t been any game decisive battles yet, though Max is in a real good position.
