ORIGINAL: cpdeyoung James, I suspect Gary will do the unexpected at every opportunity. We are replaying "Sturm und Drang", but the Germans and British are a good bit stronger. His choice for the French deployiment option was "Attack immediately", and now as JJ points out his French are not near the Belgian border. The fall of Brussels wil not be as important if my panzers are not around, or if his French are much deeper in France. This should be a fascinating game. JJ is showing what can be done with the powerful Germans in the Soviet Union. He has me rocked back, and has huge gains in land, and an impressive ratio in killed units. Gary will be using his lessons learned in naval affairs, and I have that war to fight also. Each of us has a recent experience to draw upon. Even if I take Yugoslavia soon, I have France, Spain, the North African choices, etc. I expect Malta will be guarded like the Crown Jewels, and so much more. I think Gary may use some massed, weak units, but he has seen my "HalfAgain" and how poorly that worked for me, so he may go a different route. I will be excited to see how this one plays out. Chuck Divisions do give you good movement and can pack a pretty good punch so I think building a bunch of them isn't a bad idea
