In this video, I give analysis for a strong German opening bid for London with a 2 transport + 2 cruiser purchase in Sea Zone 5 using the Larry Harris Gen Con mode (which is the baseline format for tournament play). It improves the Allies position with a number of tactical adjustments. Despite the additional difficulty, the Kill England First approach puts maximum pressure on the UK to take early risks, endangering not only the capital, but also India, precisely because Sea Zone 5 is an improbably target on UK turn 1.
There is one major variations to this approach, which involves substituting 1 Aircraft Carrier in place of a Cruiser in our Germany 1 buy. This allows us to include our Fighter from Germany in the naval battle in Sea Zone 13, which will land in Africa and be in range to attack England. It also is slightly more defensive, because our Fighters can return to Sea Zone 5 from Sea Zone 7, providing additional protection for the 3 transports. The disadvantage is the battle for England is slightly less consistent due to the lack of a Cruiser bombardment, and the counter-punch from UK/US to retake England forces Germany to keep Fighters in the Atlantic, rather than fielding them in Eastern Europe to stop the Russian push.
Watch as I give commentary about the entire game, walking through my own playthrough of each Country to try and defend this attack to the best of my ability.
