As for extending the game I am not sure that is in anyone’s favor assuming equal caliber Players. The longer the game is and the more complicated it is the easier it is to make mistakes. Unfortunately, for the Axis, the Axis made more mistakes than the Allies did so they lost.
I would say, with my limited BM3 experience - wow 1 whole game - that normally a longer game would favor the Allies in BM3 more than OOB due to the additional NOs available to the Allies in BM3. However, I noticed that for a little while the Axis actually collected more than the Allies were so that was not the issue in this case.
The game got long, it got complicated, and the Allies were able to adapt to that better than the Axis were. But the game should never have gone that long or been that complicated. That was a beautiful 8 Axis Turns; a model to emulate. A shame it was wasted.

@AndrewAAGamer many thanks for valuable input and for taking the time to put it in writing. Yes the Midway debacle was a poor way trying to put pressure on the US. I remember having problems knowing how to best take advantage of the upper hand I had during that time. Well it was a very fun game and I learned a lot.

That was one of the most fascinating games ever! How the allies dragged that back from a lost position was amazing!
Wizmark’s comment made me take a look at this game. Very interesting indeed!
This game was certainly the Axis’ to win at one point. However, the key was right after taking Moscow the Axis decided to go for Norway and Egypt. By trying to do too much this split focus resulted in the failure of both objectives and allowed the Russian stack to move towards Western Europe which extended the game. By extending the game it allowed for the possibility of Axis errors to move the game back into the Allied camp which is exactly what happened. The move towards Egypt was a waste of effort and valuable resources that could have secured the north and wiped out the Russian stack.
As for the Russian move west; ALLOWING the Russian stack to move to Belarus was a huge mistake. That gave them the shorter pathway to Berlin in comparison to the German stack.
The loss of Italy was a disaster for the Axis since Italy was collecting so much money.
Greece was the second disaster that sealed the game for the Allies. This is a good example of having to watch out for a Neutral Crush and I should add that topic to my Warfare Principles of Axis and Allies article.
In essence, the Axis played great for the first 8 Turns then made multiple large errors that cost them a game they should have won.
very insightful analysis

GGWP! Do we possibly face each other again? I know the tourney is single round robin and I don’t know if theres a championship or its just whoever has the most points at the end.

There has been a suggestion of some kind of playoff, but not decided. For the time being we can focus on finishing all of our games. It’s still a lot.

@trulpen afternoon.
Coltwitt has conceded to a very good Adamdominion team. Colt and I had the Allies with an (obviously low) Bid of 20 in BM. -

General Death had victory over MajikAndrew. Was a good match up and the highest bid for the allies I’ve seen so far.
General death X 1-0 MajikAndrew A
