BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)


  • Jap planes aren’t nearly as important as Russian ones!

    I’ll take it!

    Allies around India have been vicious.


  • Especially at the start of the huge stack battle. :astonished: :confounded:
    Not complaining, I was due for that correction, and now Japan is running into it again


  • Done through China 6, probably won’t play tonight, tomorrow not sure either.

  • I knew there was something American I didn’t move…
    Fighter to Moscow from Nenetsia

    C6 edit fighter.tsvg


  • Gonna try to finish it now


  • Was feeling good until Caucasus. I added the fighter to the combat move after agonizing, just for this reason. Fighter down, could have been worse.

  • That one took awhile. There is no room for error! It’s the championship!!!


  • Edit request for UK NCM -

    Is it too late? Or will you allow?

    It involves 2 units located near London


  • @gamerman01 haven’t been able to look yet so all good. Go ahead.


  • It might not even be an improvement, depending on what you do.

    But anyway, thanks for the good sportsmanship -

    1 fighter to 110 UK carrier instead of Normandy, and 1 DD to 92 instead of 110 -
    Game notes updated so we know 2 UK fighters on 1 UK carrier

  • reposted with a slight edit. AA stays in W Germany


  • As a courtesy - I am unlikely to play tonight - had a big day. Great to see your post, sorry about the sub, but not really after my precious fighter inexplicably went down over the Caucasus.

    You did kill the sub, after all!!

    Well, we don’t want all the dice to go the way expected! Fun game, we have our hands at each other’s throats in different areas, that’s the way it’s supposed to be!


  • What was I thinking? It’s just FRANZAC and I had their moves planned out earlier -

    coming up



  • Please do not feel urgency.

    It took 8 months to complete the first 2 rounds of the playoff.
    We just finished 6 rounds in 3 weeks, which is quite fast.


  • @gamerman01 I figured you would be relaxed about time, but apologies for the delay. It might be a few more days as we are dealing with family health issues (and unfortunately it looks like Covid again). Once we get through this, I should be back to near daily posting.


  • Another get well soon (like I said in private)!
