Cool. Was definitely interesting. Seems you have something here with your med strategy.

no that’s all good. I am sorry I miss understood ya.
what would you like your placement be.
and your email please

Have you reported the game yet?

@Kamikaze_pilot:

Ok, you won. Japan is getting nowhere and has no economy. Germany and Italy are in no position to threaten Africa and/or USSR. You outplayed me in the last couple of rounds.

Thanks for playing! I still need to learn a lot it seems  :-P.

I’ll post the game results right away.

It was an interesting game. I spent a lot of time planning my moves, especially the triple Allied ones.

Thank U and we`ll  play in the future :)

@Zhukov44:

GG Allies sue for peace.

I wanted to play out the endgame to see what I can learn from it but I can’t summon the motivation when there’s no hope of victory and where every USA/China/UK turn is incredibly challenging and time-consuming.

Outstanding Axis play by you.  The way you’ve established your position, Axis wins the game without being exposed to any real risk.

I’m perplexed as to how to deal with your tactics on the Pacific side.  Maybe with a significantly higher bid China can get established without having to sacrifice India.

The big strategic problem for Allies is there doesn’t seem to be a way to stop Germany from advancing into Cauc.

I would like a rematch because I made some regrettable early mistakes and feel Allies can do better.  Still, at this bid against your Axis style it seems like Axis will win at least 80%.  Maybe a 2-game series at a higher fixed bid?

Good game!

Yeah it is indeed hard to play when there doesn’t seem to be anything you can do to change the tide.

Thanks! As Axis especially I minimize the amount of risk I’m exposed to since there is no need for it.

Baring bad Japanese luck, on a J1 Japan will pretty much always be able to take India J4. Japan might choose not to in some cases, for example US going KJF.

As Allies you need to leave bait around and hope Germany takes them and that it weakens them enough, but if Germany is going 100% against Russia there isn’t anything you can do to stop Germany from getting to Caucasus and beyond.

Unfortunately I planned on this being my last vanilla G40 match (my revenge on you for 2015  :lol:), so except in rare cases I won’t be playing vanilla anymore. I do encourage you to try out the mod when you have the time and inclination to do so.

Thanks for the game!

@Arthur:

It looks tough for the Axis to recover now.  Call it a game, or keep going?

That Baltic States battle was a huge blow. Looks like I should have used the calculator.

I’ll post the result. 3-0 to you!

Scramble?

I will be playing balanced mod 2.0 pretty much exclusively for awhile.  My version is on the back burner, but is still a very real possibility down the road.  I am continuing to get ideas, and the balanced mod will have some influence.  I don’t know if interest in the balanced mod will ever cool off, but if it does, I will turn my attention back to my own project

This thread is no longer stickied.  See the new stickied thread for Balanced mod 2.0, rules and download and optional download http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=37883.0

@AldoRaine:

I think i am going to concede this one you you.  I am not far enough into Europe before Moscow fell.  It is all over but the crying at this point.

Very fun game. I would demand a rematch but I just have a lot going on right now so that will have to wait.

I will post the results later.  Thanks for the game

It was a fun game.  Let me know if you do ever want that rematch, as would be more than happy to play again.

Sincerely,
Snigg
