as always you hit on defense, and I dont. It is what it is

would you take a draw at this point? It will go way past round 30

Don’t think this is a drawable game really, but of course when in mutual agreement it may be.

I think you’re a better player than I am, but from my point I believe Axis has the advantage and I wouldn’t settle with a draw.

[oysteilo]

i am not sure I am a better player than you are, most likely not. You play well.

I think you are at least 10 rounds from achieving victory conditions. Probably much more

You lack two cities on europe map and two on pacific map. I will have to concede india or russia soon, then the ecomomics will be equal and it will drag out for rounds. I am still about 500 to 600 TUV advanatge on you. That adantage will be more important if Russia or India is down

You will never penetrate to Egypt if India is down as you cant deny the india stack to defend the middle east

Your advatage is both Germany and Japan are healthy

I hate it when i am forced to play many meaningless rounds like this which I think is a stalemate

I would rather give you a generaous offer for a new game. But can not force you. (one of the many reasons why BM is a broken game in my book)

[trulpen]

You are probably right. Maybe it’s because I’m fresh meat, but I don’t mind these long games so much. Maybe ask again in a year or two and I might very well have changed my opinion.

500 to 600 TUV advanatge

The Allies does however have substantial more structural TUV.

Not proving a point as much as fooling around a bit with statistics here. This is the situation before US/Ch/UK-turns, so A will increase and X will decrease, likely ending up in about 500 total difference. However…

Total TUV
A: 3005
X: 2685
Diff: 320

Structural TUV
A: 747 [6 MIC, 6 mIC, 18 ab, 15 nb]
X: 534 [4 MIC, 12 mIC, 9 ab, 9 nb]
N.B. not counting Normandie, since it is on exchange status
Diff: 213

TUV Units
A: 2258 (453 units)
X: 2151 (468 units)
Diff: 107

At the moment the fighting power is almost equal on the board, not taking into account power distribution and the strategic value of ab’s and nb’s. This does not refute your analysis that i e Cairo will be a very tough nut to crack. As is Moscow and Calcutta.

i am going to stop playing this game as I think this is a stalement for 30+ rounds. I am not going to invest any more time on this.

If you insist on playing I will post the result

Thanks for a very competitive game and good luck in your next games. I hope we can play again at some point

[oysteilo]

or i am only going to play if i dont have any better to do, so it will be slower than now

That’s completely ok. I don’t mind.

I have 11 parallell games, so I have moves to do usually.
