T2 Play Off R1 BM3: oysteilo (Axis +9) vs. majikforce

[JDOW]

Looks like the Allies are in bad bad trouble. Axis already ahead in TUV and Russia not even captures. I am afraid the Allied Western front is too weak to cause enough trouble for the Germans, even in case WGR is reduced to a minor.

Dice have not been kind to me lately! :-D  The end is near I fear.  9/10 hits is sz 112 pretty nice in round 1 of combat.  I wasn’t sure you would make the all air attack.  From your play style I gambled you wouldn’t.  I was wrong :wink:

[oysteilo]

9 out of 10 is more than I could hope for, for sure, but 5 out of 5 (including defending sub) in egypt sea sone is pretty nice too…… This play I would do 10 out of 10 times, I ended up +70, avg is +45 so good dice for me. Now, if you didn’t move out of moscow it would be harder. But it is so difficult to plan all this stuff ahead of time

coming up sunday morning norway time, lets see if we can “liberate” Norway soon  :-D

[oysteilo]

Coming up tomorrow I think.

[oysteilo]

There was beer. Also, the position looks easy but there area lot of things for Japan to do. Short on men too

I need another day or two to contemplate if I should continue or not.  Its not looking favorable for me. :-D

[majikforce]

Okay I will concede victory.  Really good job by you!  If it was’t a playoff game I might be inclined to continue to see if I could muster any kind of hail mary comeback, but I don’t think its fair to make you or Wittman wait any longer.  You have the stronger position on both maps and I don’t see you making any catastrophic errors to allow me back into the game.  My Atlantic presence has been snuffed out.  You did a masterful job stalling me for many turns putting me way behind the time schedule for the European landings.  And then I was probably a bit to aggressive taking Norway and I made a risky move based on your gaming tendencies and you called my bluff.  In hindsight I probably should’ve played it a turn slower but its goes against my aggressive nature.  Well played!  Thanks for the game I learned alot, especially about your style.  Triple A is great but I do miss the face to face gaming experience of A&A.  When you can look a opponent in the face a get a sense of what they are thinking.  Good luck against Wittman he’s a very skilled player and a tough nut to crack!  Maybe we can face off again later this season!  Cheers!

PS our last posted map still has Norway as Allied controlled!  :-P :-D

Thanks for all the good words, it was a privilege playing this game against you. I think you are a fair and one of the cleanest players in the league, no funny business or moves from your side, everything is declared and no room for misunderstandings. Perfect.

I think the game we played last year gave me a lot of valuable information about your style too. So I knew what was coming,  extremely aggressive allied play. It is very difficult to face for the axis,  but eventually the key is to allow the allies to run out of steam I think, while not loosing axis air.

I think moving the German bombers to Pacific caused trouble for you,  because blocking becomes too expensive or combined with the marginal allied sea forces.

Overall I think the move to Norway was not soo good, maybe a little early,  or maybe combined with NOT moving out of Moscow is better. At least then you make me make a decision. It would probably be to take Moscow,  but then at least your Atlantic push would be there.

I also like the way you put pressure on italy and secures Gibraltar with minimum effort.

Good luck in your next games!
