L21 Amon-Sul (Axis) vs Pejon_88 (Allies + 16)

[Pejon_88]

@pejon_88 Apologies for my change there, you have one on me ;)
My reasoning was that a potential boost in +8 IPCs, the loss of one additional G inf, G having to re-take Holland, was worth the risk of you hitting again at 33% and me losing a fig.

@amon-sul I know that some people plan their move a great deal. I am trying to balance planning and playing, tends to prefer the latter part a bit more :)
I don’t open a session (with exceptions) without at least planning on playing at the same time. Sometimes when a round takes a couple of hours to plan it may happen I can’t finish/play during the same session, then I have to re-open and inadvertently do some planning in my head meanwhile. I have about 4 games ongoing at the same time and have noticed that is quite reasonable for me. Some games are rounds 1-5 and some late games, so a nice mix there. Right now I don’t have a lot at work, hence why I can write this post during work hours (working from home :D )

well, for me 1 game is the best with fast pace.

Sometimes 2 , 1 with axis, 1 with allies is cool too

for more then 2, i need to have more private space (time) , and I dont have it.

I like to plan my move to think about it before my opponent does his. and then when he does it, i just update my plans after his move is done.

But i must admit i play much faster with allies, because they are my favourite side, and anzac and russian move usually go fast

not to mention that with axis u need to spend much more time in the first few rounds, especially me , since i dont have much exp with axis, and am an unorthodox player.

usually i dont allow it, i am not sure i ll allow it next turn too

but i felt this time i should

cheers

@amon-sul ok, interesting. My initial thought was that planning before the opponent plays would mean that more time is invested in each round, but I get that that time invested is returned during your own turns then.

Just out of curiosity, how predictable am I compared to other players our there?

[Pejon_88]

@amon-sul of course! It is always at the other player’s discretion to decide without any bad blood.

Hard to tell.

I think more or less all the players are predictable (but that doesnt mean they are not good players), I think that the top players (E and M against which I play only lately) tend to avoid risky battles, and try to pressure in a way that will avoid risky situations.

But that doesnt mean U re not good. Somebody can play more unpredictible, but bad.

I sometimes look what would I do in my opponent shoes. That helps (a lot) to.

With allies, its easier. I dont have to plan much in advance, but with axis, i feel i need to.

With allies i just play sometimes.

And with axis i play rarely, and this game is unique too, so, maybe that counts too.

With allies i loose time to combine the nations. Thats tricky with allies.

With Axis its more individual play, but I would say i need time for buyings, its a lot of options. Especially Germany and Japan.
