LP Panzer General - 29 "Would you prefer a Samba or a Syrtaki?"

Here I conduct a clean up operation of the remainder of secondary French cities. Not a lot of interesting stuff happens here. Later in the video I show what the maps look like for both missions that follow this one. I can only choose one of those two missions, so consider this your preview of what's to come, and feel free to suggest which one of the next two missions I should choose to play.

Y U NO DO MORE EPISODES?? ):

I give my vote to the Balkan campaign.

[shooter5503]

I think fighting in the Balkans would be better to see as it would be easier and nobody really focus on the fighting there but everybody knows about North Africa because the U.S.A came in there with the armies of the commen wealth. Plus it is true there is more maneuverability in there even if there is more mountains.

one by one and you need not engage with your own battleships in a costly seabattle. However the brits have a submarine too. Since submarines cant fight each other, you can (when all is safe, royal navy destroyers all sunk) use your own submarine to block the english one between the coast and yours, so it is no danger anymore.

Submarines have a nasty chance to evade both destroyer and tact bomber attacks, so they are hard to kill. Submarines can block ground units from driving on the coast road.

infantry. However they have low defense, so bombing and strafing works nice, AND they have only 2 shots, so you can use 2 italians on suicide attacks on them, then use a third unit with no risk. I need to tell you about submarines, as you never had seacombat before. Submarines can only be attacked by patrol boats, destroyers or tactical bombers. They can only be spotted if you move adjacent to them. if you kill the enemy destroyers, with say bombers, your submarine can sink the battleships

Im very excited and am looking forward to see how you will deal with these yugoslavs and greeks. One more tip about them: They can (and yugoslavs mostly do) build partisan infantry. They look the same as regulars, so inspect closely! the partisans have a formidable spot range, so watch that before you drive your precious units in vulnerable trucks around! Armored transports are safe though. The partisans have also very high initiative, so they can actually shoot first even against experienced

amphib invasion and capture south part of greece from behind. You can send italian infantry from mainland italy to try the same (but your transports are limited to 3 so you cant do both), but the italians will not only need their navy but also strong airsupport to have success. If you engage with the navy in a seafight, you will have losses if you have not overwhelming airforce too, so forget amphib invasions then, the navy will be too weak. Only brits have air defense, last happy times for air

[tomtom34b]

send the italian navy north ignoring the brits altogether, if the airforce can sink the royal navy. That way you have nice artillery support for the coast towns to capture. The italian army has a much easier job then. You can send the italian navy south of greece to bombard the coast, avoiding a seafight altogether (the royal navy will bombard italians in greece most of the time). If you clear the greek fortifications in the east, you could ship some engineers across the sea to attack in

[tomtom34b]

the italian have one great lvlbomber unit though, it has long range, nice ship attack and is like immune to ground fire, keep that alive. Send it to the british/greek front asa you killed their airforce (or keep it escorted). If you really have not your own lvlbombers, use that bomber to hunt british ships and support the italian navy.

About the navy: You can use them fight the royal navy, you can wait till you cleared the RAF and bomb the royal navy first, assisting with the italians, you could

[tomtom34b]

You will have to decide what to do with the italians. First, their airforce is crappy and has low range. Especially the tactical bombers, who have somewhat nice stats, need refuel after nearly every attack. keep an eye on that. The airforce in southern italy has limited range as well, i would recommend to change base to north italy first, then after refueling send them over the sea to the fighting in north yougoslavia. remember to strafe alot, use the fighters to scout out targets for the bomber
