Say, if this game is over do you mind posting to the main thread?  Thanks, guys!!

Hey! Just wondering if you got your computer back online by now?

Hi guys, I returned now from holidays, my computer was broken during them and did not connect to the site.

It was in fact a very interesting and surprising strategy on your side.

You can count on that face to face game gentlemen! It does not matter it will take some time to organize, it will be a great time in the north of Spain when the time comes.

Cheers

Juan

GG. Well played. It was an interesting one though definitely over at this point :)

sorry for the delay.
lightning hit my house and messed up all my electronics so I have to have things replaced or fixed.
I will be a couple of days and I will be back

Thanks, thanks for playing :)

I agree your elves were all over and annoying, but not really troublesome, the Goblins got pretty big and Saruman was holding his own against Rohan…

And the 2 hit point units, if those Elephaunts regen at end of turn they’re insane, right now I don’t really see a way for allies to handle them after turn 7-8 or so (except ignoring them, moving out of the way and taking other stuff). Also for the Nazgul, now I really have to think where to move them to protect them when they are low HP, would be so much easier (too easy I guess) with eot regen…

Allright, thanks for the advice, see you in some other game :-)

GG. Yeah, this one has pretty much been over since Prussia’s capital fell and there was no way to recapture or take another enemy capital within a few turns.

@axis-dominion:

ok gg. your play is quite strong, but yamamoto was diced early on in this game lol

we were (pleasantly) surprised that you didn’t stack volg right after russia fell, which would’ve been tough for us.

thanks for the game. too bad you’re always too busy to make more timely turns. what do you do anyway?

also, the additional VC rule isn’t a league rule, but it’s the new Balanced Mod (BM) variation that has caught on like fire in the community.

I think a min mistake was when I went to stack Volgograd with Russia while sending some allied fighters too far away from russian land ; this made the fall of Moscow earlier than expected. At some poinnt, I did not want to run too much computations ^_^

I’m not used to play with VC, and do not really like it :) I really prefer to play for global victory ; in particular, I do not like at all the way to sacrifice Japan to reinforce Europa. But this was obviously well played of you :)

And there were other rules I did not know had changed, like the sub rule (last time I played before this tournament was the “roll a dice at 2 or less for each attacking tranny”).

Anyway, you played really well, congratulations for your victory and good luck for the remaining of your tournament !

Thanks, GG.

Was a lot of fun.

Er no, this game was finished anyways, not matter what happens on the mainland. Well, except maybe India dying off in one stroke ;-)

And thanks for playing! Neat game, I made some mistakes, but that’s good, cause how else will we learn? The sea battles / calculations are a lot of work on this one, and the straits with all the who’s turn is it next question with it made me think twice multiple times.

Good game, I agree it seems a bit hopeless for you now… Good luck with the tournament and see you in another match :-)
