adamc6 -> Italian Front (9/25/2007 4:36:04 PM)

Hey Gang, longtime player of Matrix games and several of Mr. Hunter's. Really enjoying this game -- I'll play alot more before I make too many comments, but one question needs answering before Munich falls to the Entente! How does the CP defend on the Italian Front? I knew they were going to declare, so I moved in German and Austria troops and positioned them in the mountains to hold the italians at bay. First turn, TONS (not enough air recon available to know how many) of UK troops, and obviously Italians, storm the defenses, which seemed to have fallen apart due to supply issues (realistic, fair enough) in the mountains. So the question is, how do you defend there? Do you keep your troops behind the alps and then try to cross the mountains fast in an offensive (meaning the mountains are in fact, almost a no-man's land, as troops cannot be maintained for long there?). I like the realism of the issue, but just trying to understand how to hold this line. I guess the easy answer is that I need to storm down onto the Northern Italian plains ASAP ... though the hordes of Brits and Italians make that seem unlikely to happen. Thanks. AC
