This was a 3v3 game I'd played allied with JESUS and Weps against Rising Thunder, shoulders and UPU. Max pop, max cities with equalized pops.
I was Africa, JESUS was SA, and Weps was Asia. Rising Thunder was NA, shoulders was Europe, and UPU was Russia. A true North vs. South battle.
Defcon 5
Weps set up his silos in the Middle East (southern Saudi/Yemen/UAE area). On his advice I set my silos on the eastern edge of Africa next to his with my airbases surrounding them. I deployed most of my naval forces in the mid-Atlantic (up by the Ivory Coast) except for 3 battleships and 3 subs. I ultimately moved the battleships to join their comrades in the Atlantic (I'd placed them before seeing Weps' suggestion that my fleet should go in the Atlantic), but I kept my three subs in the Indian. Weps' navy set up shop in the Indian, and JESUS set up just off the Brazilian coast not far from my BBs. The remaining subs I set up in the North Atlantic. I sent three towards Canada, another two near Cuba, and another two in ine middle of the Atlantic across from the U.S. Eastern Seaboard.
Defcon 4
Didn't detect much of the enemy at this point. Two European silos and one Russian silo were detected by radars immediately, along with some radars. I also spotted a group of four Euro BBs skirting along the eastern African coast a little ways south of Gibraltar.
Defcon 3
I started launching some bombers to deal with the naval forces prowling along my eastern coast. I also sent fighters up north to see if I could find anything else. NA subs started pinging mine near Cuba and I started pinging backI think I killed a couple of his subs at the expense of a couple of mine.
Defcon 2
Commenced bomber launches in preparation for a strike at the visible Euro assets. I ultimately was able to slip three subs into the area between Canada and Greenland, and had three BBs join them to serve as cover. I had subs ready to launch of the U.S. east coast, and all my bombers were airborne before Defcon 1. JESUS mentioned NA's silos were in Canada to Weps and me on the Alliance channel.
Defcon 1
Subs appeared off my eastern coast preparing to launch. I diverted a couple of bombers to deal with them as I was sending carrier-based and land-based bombers to hit Euro silos and radars. Jesus was initiating actions against NA. Weps also sent bombers to strike at targets in Russia. He would ultimately send some towards Europe to find the remaining silos. Two of my bombers also found two more European silos and more radar. Weps and I together got all six Euro silos and I think he got all the Russian ones as well.
NA started launching silos, from Canada where JESUS thought they were. I started launching my subs off NA (at cities at first, then switched targets when JESUS reminded me to go for the silos. NA did send a nuke at my subs off Greenland and got them but I'd gotten some nukes away. I think I'd brought down a couple of his silos, and JESUS mowed down the rest. All this while I was still launching bombers at European and Russian cities.
A little while later Weps mentioned he was going to get some points, and I decided to join his bomber and silo attack with silo launches of my own. JESUS also launched liberally at NA. I also put in flight my remaining nuke-loaded bombers to get whatever points I could. By the time it was all said and done, I'd gutted Europe, some of Russia, and Weps also worked over Europe and Russia. JESUS and I also turned NA into a smoldering ruin. All in all, it ended up a pretty one-sided affair. Weps did get hit pretty hard in the whole thing mostly from Russia and Europe, but JESUS and I didn't do too bad as far as casualties went.
South 1-0 North, and I ended up with a personal record for a default-scoring game (357 points)
