If HoI is similar to WiF in how it handles the air-to-sea battles then definitely A... with a lot of research on fast-moving mobile reserves (for the lack of coastal defenses).

P.S. How do you intend to keep your overseas units in supply?

too late for new votes ;)


but there`s another staff meeting!

what should italy do now? it`s the 11. 6. 1937

- should we stick to the air strategy?

- should we go on the offensive and improve our resource supply? e.g. taking out albania (some oil), yugosalvia etc... but beware, it will raise allied WE.

- work on the diplomatic front?

- do something different?

Remember, "we must all hang together, or assuredly we shall hang seperately."

If you don't take the canal and possibly gibraltar, the Brits have just cut thousands of miles off of their convoy routes. This lets them pupmp out more men and material. considering the British AI should go against the soft underbelly of europe (you!)...

My suggestion would be to, if you can, take out albania. But only if it won't cost you much. The oil is valuable, true.

Your forces are more valuable. What kind of resources can you develop in north Africa?

Those two :)

Take at least albania, no where else unless they have resourses you need.

Keep the focus on naval air but get some land tech too so you can take the canal and malta (maybe Gib too) when WWII kicks off.

And why not use some diplomacy to get some more minors into the axis, it won't affect your war effort in anything but a good way, will it?
