War analysis - future strikes against TWO, day 2101
cen1
With Hungary (almost) deleted from foreign regions it is now time to look in the future of CoT global operations.
Closing the Hungarian war
Right now, Mexico attacked Iowa, effectively blocking Serbian-USA border if won.
Now here is a slight problem. If USA continues the attack they will get border with Poland which could NE them and probably win in direct fight.
The second option is to try and lose Kansas RW so USA can attack it. This way Mexico could conquer all bordering regions and Poland loses at least 4 days before being able to attack USA. This is an important tactical decision so I hope CoT HQ knows what they are doing.
Congress for Macedonia and Bulgaria
We liberated Eastern Macedonia in a heroic battle but things did not go as planned from there. Greece placed NE first, mostly due to number superiority in congress. Second thing that happened is Macedonian CP getting banned so nobody can vote on Macedonian NE. Whether the temp ban will be lifted in time or he will get a permanent ban is unlcear at the moment.
The thing I don't understand here is, why did Macedonian CP wait with the Airstrike law? Why not put out the law and vote on it as soon as the region was liberated? Why even bother with NE law if CoT will lose direct MPP battle and the RW was for nothing.. This is a serious fail by Macedonia which is really hard to understand.
While Bulgarian AS is not yet ready, the food could be easily gathered so at this point it is just a matter of time when the RW is started and we try to bring them congress.
Plans after congress
There are only 2 options here. Depending on what happens with the situation described in section 1, the primary target will either be Serbia or Poland.
Serbia needed around 3 weeks to recover from their last fail and they are still not on their 10 bonuses yet. They will reach their target in approximately 3 days. Their region bridge is extremely fragile so they are a perfect target for mass RW strike. USA, France, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia.. just like the last time, opening fire on all these fronts should be nothing less but 100% success. The regions in USA could also be attacked by a double NE from USA and Mexico to repeat the Hungarian story. With proper organisation Serbia will be on fire and locked back into their Balkan cage where they belong. TWO is very weak in situations like this so I do not see any reason for this to fail.
On the other hand, Poland is a viable target too but their region bridge is much better. The occupied countries are also somehow weaker so liberating them would be a more difficult task. I think Serbia should be primary target while Poland could be taken care of as the last. The RW potential is good and the economic blow to TWO would be huge. It is no secret that the majority of TWO MU companies are located in Poland.
Ukraine
We don't really want the war between Russia and Ukraine. The first problem is that if Russia advances too far they could gain border with Hungary which is exactly what we do not want. Russian damage is also drained here so with this war closed they could help elsewhere. If NAP could be negotiated on this front it would be a benefit for all.
France
I would like to congratulate France for securing their congress with a bold and dangerous AS.

Nice!
With regards to the Macedonian CP not proposing the airstrike, I suspect it was because he wanted the NE first. If he had managed to NE Greece first then he could have launched the airstrike proposal and both would have been voted through at the same time. This would allow him to launch the airstrike without fear of Greece taking all macedonian regions before the battle was won. As things stand, if an airstrike had been proposed the likelihood is that the greeks would have retaken Eastern Macedonia before the airstrike could have been successful.
Great read again, please keep these articles up, I am enjoying them!
I think it was worth the gamble. All you need to do is win the AS before Greece wins the battle. Right now the only option is to win the battle and then propose AS which is going to be extremely hard. I believe CoT prime time would be able to prolong the Greek attack long enough.
The question is whether CoT could have delayed the Greek battle while simultaneously winning all/almost all points in the airstrike. Lets not also forget that it costs alot of money to airstrike and wiped countries don't have huge incomes
Macedonia needs 83k cc for AS plus food. That's not really a lot tbh. I think CoT could win several turns at prime time. TWO does not really have any country outside European time zone except maybe Argentina but it cannot be even compared.. we have full domination for at least 7 hours.
Nice...
How very interesting that you have skipped Spain...
Last attack on Serbia was in quite different situation due to our "president's" action, holiday season, etc. So, bring it on...
Perhaps, but who knows how much did the internal situation really effect the battles. CP has nothing to do with defending RWs for example. It is going to be interesting nevertheless.
As for Spain, they are not the main threat in the region.
Hmm, very diplomatic respond regarding Spain...
As for our CP, he took all the money, some ORG's, created huge problems with allies, some major units are not hitting with full power if they are not called to arms and paid, we had problems for days to recover and to start with organized supplies... Once you've reached our core regions, all units are in, we had money for CO, improved relation with allies and the tide of war changed immediately....
@Van Sebe If somebody play this game as it should be played- we do! Always fun 😃 So, yes- bring it oooooon!!!!! About Spain- can't touch this! 😃 Friends everywhere 😉 We should learn politics from them 😉
''He gained his experience as MoD, CP and MU commander''
...he was a failed CP and MoD, I don't remember about the MU commander...
(kisses from sLOVEnia 😛)
Report bre!
Good article o7
eh škoda besed.... bivši CP izda domovino pa čeprav se ne strinja s potezami vlade...
some interesting points of view here
i guess CoT is using old Eden's strategy - if you can't stand face to face with your enemy try multiple RWs
it is sometimes succesfull but in long term it does not bring nothing but lots of costs (especially in time of CO)
It is the only viable tactic because the global damage is almost 1:3.
yep
that is why i'm still waiting for changes in MPP mechanics that could destroy bipolar world
i know i will never see - but still hope
(for example - tha farther the country you want to MPP is, the more expensive it should be)
it would change a lot in global politics
now - the only thing that would change global politics is collapse of two
Agreed. Without a change in the war module it will remain a cat and mouse game with one force being slightly superior but unable to overcome the opponent. But that's essentially what admins want because only conflict brings the profit.
Good articule! v+s
Well done
Hopefully is achieved NAP between Russia and Ukraine.
