@axis-dominion down for a rematch if you need something to pass the time in between these slow play speed folks

yeah i think we can do one while we wait, it’ll be a while lol

@axis-dominion yeah, The Axis Rock is the axis stacking Gibraltar.

@cwglee51 good game! It was fun and quite challenging. You also had some ridiculously bad dice luck in mid game. I think there were a couple of mistakes that might have been crucial. Earlier when you let me hit your german stack of fast movers in the mid east and now iwth not doing more to defend Germany. But this game could have ended very differently apart from that.

@dawgoneit

YOURS

@surfer said in BM Surfer (L+15) vs Farmboy (X):

@farmboy wow!! The dice gods favored me!

Americans regular : 29.67
Americans AA : 1.33
Germans regular : -10.50

TUV win 595. If this was a real game, you might get to put this in one of the worst dice rolls ever.

yeah and definitely a good demonstrationg why you don’t gamble on those odds! But still fun to do.

@fasthard said in L26 BM4 Playoffs QF fasthard(X) vs axis-dominion(L+18):

@axis-dominion that worked as expected ;-)
At least luck didn’t decide here anything ;-).
I surrender!
Caongrats aund thanks a lot for the game. I feel that I learnt more in round one than in all the other games as the axis with J1.

The Italian fleet blunder was stupid and lead me to this all in move to India.

Good luck for the next rounds in the Playoffs.
I’ll follow your games.

thank you, that was a great game! that all-in move did kinda take me by surprise, usually i look out for those kinds of neutral crush surprise moves, but i didn’t think you had enough to pull it off, and i guess it turned out i was right… altho! i must say getting lucky in that big kazakh battle really helped ensure that. i wasn’t expecting that to be a won battle, i was more just trying to reduce down your forces there to weaken a potential 2nd wave, but it turned out to be more than that, which i happily welcomed!

@simon33
K, I will get things up and running tomorrow

@arathorn

Fun game, bid was probably too low, but I haven’t played OOB in years.

I would recommend switching up to Balanced Mod, which is what is mostly played these day.

@dawgoneit Sure, let’s bid via message. Send your bid :)

@Omni All good. Be glad to play another game some other time when you are free.

@ArtofWar1947

Thanks. It was a good game! See you in Playoffs? :)

OK Harry, ich habe es so richtig verkackt. Wenn Deutschland sich in Runde 6 zurückziehen muss und Japan nicht gleichzeitig ein Riese ist, ist das Schicksal zwangsläufig.

Ein großer Fehler war der späte Angriff auf Russland mit der Folge, dass Deutschlands Einkommen zu lange viel zu gering war und gleichzeitig Russlands zu hoch. Und wenn dann noch Kill Germany First kommt, wird es schwierig. Viel Erfolg bei Deinen nächsten Partien - ich mache mal wieder eine Pause.

@surfer Ok, so I speak with Surfer directly and we are off.

@cwglee51 GG. Tough to play the Axis when only the Italians can get any decent dice

@cwglee51 Good game to you! I appreciate you poking holes in my strategy. There were definitely some things I’d overlooked.

And it appears that the future isn’t too terribly far away! We seem to be matched in the first round of the playoffs. I’ll pm you an opening bid.

@simon33 probably most fun game I’ve been in. I appreciate your determination. I would have given up long ago. You almost did win it running circles on me in the pacific.

Thank you for a good game.

@Avner thanks. I thought you were vicariously rooting for the Italians. 56 Ipc economy was the largest I’ve had for the Italians!

@fasthard said in L25 BM4 fasthard(X) vs Amon-Sul(L+24):

@Amon-Sul me too. Since I haven’t played OOB for a long time (and never via forum) I prefer to play BM. Looking forward for our games in 2026!

I am thinking about a bid

IC Egypt
Dd Egypt SZ
4 IPC UK bank

Does it sound interesting enough :D
