L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3

[trulpen]

That’s very fair. I fully agree.

Shall I set up the game?

[Amon-Sul]

@trulpen i mean take a breathe from playing and dicing with the analysis

and the analysis helps us to play better in the third game

but we have to analyse before we roolll

but maybe for the quality of our third game (there can always be a place for improvement) we can first make the analysis of our first two games and take a breathe, and then we start the third one?

is that ok?

I’d like start it already now. I can write my impressions while waiting for moves. We can take it in the chat. I have about 1,5 h now. No other moves (so sad).

u wrote its 1 -0 for me in the post league, shouldnt be it 2-0 , or its 1-0 as me as the axis?

I think the opening is pretty straight-forward. Like in chess. Not so much to think about.

It’s just that game. The other game is already recorded as 0-1.

As for this game,

I think that the allies couldnt gain so much without the element of surprise for the axis, as your axis could gain in a rematch against my allies.

I think that this game in which i was one VC from victory on both sides of the board, just proves how powerfull axis are. They do not need taking the world, 8 VC in Europe or 6 in the Pacific.

With so many starting units, planes, tanks, central position, i just think the allies need a bigger bid boost to counter them.

Ok, u ve lost Cairo early, and it has set u back from the start, but Japan was spreading immensely from the start (ok u were at times too passive with Uk Pacific), but still i have an impression that those axis dudes are so strong.

For example, Ur russia was buying artillery from the begining, building its offensive troups, buying even tanks, and still it could not break German lines, while Germany was spending heavily on its navy.

Maybe USA choosen the wrong path, but hard to blame em, since if they ve sent too much in the Atlantic, the Pacific would be taken earlier , or vice versa.

Germany had the means to cripple UK economy, and with the help of Italy and Japan, UK was pretty much neutralized.

i am looking forward to a new game with axis to see how it will work. i am curious if my calculations are correct or not.

cheers

I will try and write an analysis of this game as well, but just shortly.

I think the main mistake for Russia was to help out China. It was actually not called for. R should’ve focused on flattening G. I believe that was very possible, but more units were needed. Especially not have to direct some of the central forces south, but using the eastern reinforcements for that purpose.

well, yes , that is true, but in that case japan would get sooner on the walls of india and hawaii.

and that soviet stack was moving slow. to reach eastern poland from novo, well its 5 rounds if i am correct.

but its definitely an option to help russia make a progress. the other smaller are the units u ve sent to middle east, but they were definitely a really good help for the brits

[Amon-Sul]

or as u mention u could maybe send those siberia guys via novo and kazahstan to caucasus.

[trulpen]

True. Calcutta would likely have fallen earlier, but think that’s completely ok if Germany crumbles. Then US can focus 100 % on Pac.

3 moves to Caucasus from Novosibirsk, relieving buy for inf, art, mech, tank from Moscow.
