I am a retired gentleman with a few games going who would like to play a little more against people. There seems to be a pattern where the player who loses does not want to play again. I have played several games that I lost and did not want to play again. I have won against several players and they did not want to play again. There are a few like Dawgoneit who love to play and will not quit playing you. What I would like to try is sort of an automatic bid improvement for the losing player. For example: I lose a G41 with no bid then if we play again same sides then I get a 10 or 20 bid sort of depending on how bad I got beat. I win at 20 we go to 10. I win at 10 we go to no bid.
If you want to play without the bid improvement just let me know and we can do it the more common way.
World at War

Is there any serious play of World at War here? I’ve played against a friend casually but am curious about this game’s potential at a more competitive level. Is it balanced enough for that or is there some massive advantage for one side or the other? The board is so huge it’s intimidating but that also leaves a lot of possibility for different strategies. (Note: I am referring to the TripleA only World at War game that is the largest existing map on that platform).

Okay great; thanks! Any reason why it’s set as default Low Luck?

@TheShrike Most players prefer Low Luck but it can be played as regular dice as well. Its a bit harder for Axis with regular dice as they need to win certain battles the first few rounds to expand.

Sounds to me like it’s Barnee Time !!!
