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.

I’ve played many, many, many different board games of Axis and Allies in-person and just found out about this online option. I’m skeptical how “good” some people are on this forum. There are only X number of good opening moves, Y counters etc. and it’s pretty easy. Very skeptical some people are as good as they say they are. Probably not. Just talk a big game.

heh heh I upvoted you for replying :) -
Im pretty much convinced that for the classic version of the game nearly all the great players were Hasbro CD players under Spring42. I understand the rules and some of the glitch made the game different I also understand that some purist didnt even want to try the CD version after hearing some of the glitches (we used to call the game Hasblow) but on the long run playing online just allow you to play way more game and against stronger players and against different plans/tactics than you could ever find live. Thinking your a good player because you can beat all your friend is a bit like being the best at chess in your high school. None of the pbem or the other leagues (Warzone or Axis and Allies Alliance maybe im not sure) I have played against were close to the caliber of the Spring42 players. Its a bit like online poker vs live poker, its not really close at all.
For the others version I have no reason to think that it would be different. Anwyaa if your very good you should have aat least some curiosity of playing against someone online no ?

Talking smack to people you do not even know is, IMHO, not exactly the best way to try and make friends.
