Combat Hit Differential Summary :
OMG you guys are terrible.
Didnt even take holland for free.
Pulled the destroyer out of the med. :?
Left the entire pacific fleet spread out in different seazones…
I can’t handle it!
This game is not going to end well, or anytime soon it seems.
With love and respect, I request full peace with the Axis.
Dawgoneit - Just retreat your units from Russian territory, and I’ll reset PEACE conditions in TripleA. Germany can get it’s at PEACE N.O. again, and the axis can focus on trouncing the allies for their terrible play. Maybe cut a swath right through Turkey and the rest of the neutrals to take out egypt and the middle east. Russia will pull all forces to Moscow and not build any new units.
I don’t mean anything harsh and apologize if my comments have offended my friends and allies. I unfortunately can’t delete them.
I just hope they find a way to turn it around! :)
I have exchanged a couple of pm’s with Gargantua.
For the most part I’ve stayed quiet during this game, but I do want to discuss a couple of things. I’m not trying to be mean to anyone.
I was trying to decide if I wanted to repair the factory in UK and put units there or the middle east and maybe help from the south. I was leaning toward UK with putting 2 planes in, hadn’t thought fully about the balance of IPC’s before I asked Garg for his recommendation. This round Gargantua recommended the following:
Repair London factory for 13 and build two planes + artillery, Load EVERYTHING you have onto the American transports, and drop 1 inf into holland for $ this turn. This will give you a strong attack on norway next turn, enough to defeat it. I agreed. DONE
Get the french fighter to Gib YES, and load the french infantry on their turn into the US transports. atleast we will have a scramble option if its attacked. I agreed and am going to do it.
You could gamble and load 1 UK artillery on the the gib transport… but chances are he will attack with atleast 2 bombers… but this then spares london more bombing? your call. DO NOT pull your destroyer out of med. if anything, send it to Egypt where it’s safe from italian attack, and where you can start eyeing up those japanese Subs. Sort of agree. I want to force Dawg to make a decision with his bombers. Strategic bomb UK against 2 fighters that can intercept or send bombers to Gibraltar and take out US transport, UK destroyer, and french fighter that will scramble. Both scenarios probably will kill at least 1 bomber. I realize this gives Italy their Med bonus for the round, but I’ll fix that next round with an Egypt destroyer purchase.
Get your subs to norway/normandy, and pull 1 sub back from Southfrance to Sz97, Sz97 is the money shot. I agreed and did it.
Gargantua also recommended taking Holland with 1 UK infantry for the free 3 IPC’s. My infantry, 3 IPC’s, will just die. So it’s a wash. To me that infantry is very important because Germany has 6 infantry and 1 artillery, and is going to transport 2 more units up there next turn for a total defense of 18. UK brings 8 infantry, 1 artillery, 1 mech, 2 fighters for attack value also of 18. UK can’t afford to throw away land units as happened last turn to the Allies.
I have embarrassed myself with a couple of mistakes, especially because I wanted to play great with Gargantua around. I pride myself in my game, but I know I am not an elite player. I have really only played Global for over a year and a half. I started playing on Triple A last Fall. I think I’ve gotten better by leaps and bounds since playing on Triple A because of the diversity of players and strategies. Thank you SA for getting me online and involved.
I have REALLY enjoyed this game, because this is my first team game. I have also felt like shit at times because Gargantua has trashed me and SA in the forum. I don’t mind pm’ing and discussing strategy or what I did right or wrong.
Joel I know we discussed this in a pm and you apologized, but I feel like your behavior has not been good. Even during your apology you still threw shade towards SA and me. If you want I am happy to quit and let you take over the UK so you can implement your strategy exactly as you want, since we aren’t always going to agree. I am not going to be a puppet taking orders from someone else. I’m very happy to discuss strategy. You know that I respect your greatly as one of the best players out there and I hope you know that I consider you a friend. I’m just tired of the negative comments about us in the forum.
I just want to have fun win or lose, mistakes or no mistakes.
Keep play it’s actually been a fun game.
I was way out of bounds, don’t know why , so Apologies again.

Christmas in July! Emperor Hirohito thanks the Brits for building in London and not the mideast. Dawg may not share my appreciation. The Emperor thanks the Americans for moving their bombers out of reach of the homeland. Guess my stack of ftrs discouraged them. However, shipping in the Sea of Japan will continue to be sparse. The natives of DEI tremble that the Americans may return them to colonial rule. Il Duce thanks the Brits for giving him “Mare Nostrum” back. I enjoyed the comments by Garg and D.A. D.A. stay in the game.
Wow, it truly is Christmas in July, for Italy. 13 P.U. It will be like letting a kid into a candy store. Maybe the Brit submariners need shore leave.
I love how dawg doesn’t give a damn about our petty squabbles .
You know I have to say this and I’m only going to say this once.
Japan is not the only axis nation with a peace treaty in place with Russia.
Russia and Italy have also successfully negotiated to maintain a lasting and official peace agreement over all 12 game rounds of warfare.
Yet like the modern media, I see a lot of talk about sideshows instead of stark realities! Everyone giving Russia And Japan a hard time but Italy gets a free pass?? It’s like a Clinton conspiracy!
That’s a good one Garg. So Dawg voluntarily gave up the Italian can opener so that Russia wouldn’t invade _ ? Does that mean that your mech in Cauc is not going to take Italian Somaliland for the N.O.?
Thanks for the kind words D.A. Japan was blessed with good dice in the beginning against China. Sometimes one has to make your own luck. I aggressively challenged China, baiting UKP to intervene. I’ve seen many forum strategy posts about the benefits of Japan DOW on allies on T1. But I prefer to completely conquer China first. I had no idea what to do after taking India. The German war in the east wasn’t going anywhere so I needed to do something fast. S.A. quickly built and rushed in air power to Aust. and has continued to concentrate on me, thus reducing the pressure of a two front war on Ger. Even tho I took India, I’ve had to expend sizable resources every turn defending it. So the U.S. has equaled and exceeded my initial air and naval superiority.

Lol, I even anticipated him wanting it and flipped the Allied neutral territory. Surprised Gargantua hasn’t wanted to move on it earlier.

The air campaign in the Pacific that initially saved Hawaii and Australia was Garg’s idea.
