A lot of posters seemed stunned at this scenario, never scene it ever happen or even could happen. Now that I mulled it over last night and looked at the rules and so forth it is very obvious to me why no one has ever scene this scenario. Because the scenario makes no logical sense.
Italy DOW on Russia and moves in 2 tanks into Eastern Poland.
Russia is now at war with Italy and can DOW on Germany at the start of their next turn, turn 3.
Germany on Turn 3 does not DOW on Russia and just non combats into Eastern Poland.
Russia at the start of Turn 3 DOW on Germany and off we go.There is no logical reason why Russia would not DOW on Germany at the start of Turn 3, none.
Heck you could argue that it makes no logical sense that Germany did not DOW on Russia at the start of G3 since Italy brought Russia into the war and Russia WILL DOW on Germany on R3.
Hi PainState,
From my perspective, if I was planning on doing a G3 Barbarossa AND I wanted to drive towards the south, then yes, it makes sense to not DOW. My stack will be together except for the minimum required mobile units and maybe 1 AAA in Poland so Russia doesn’t attack Poland to get their NO for occupying an Axis territory. But E. Poland will be real strong because the German air will be there and maybe bombers will also be in range of a raid on the Moscow factory. Also, 5 IPCs is more income than I’d probably get as Germany on the 1st turn.
There are a few disadvantages of course. 1, Russian blockers can’t be attacked. 2, the Scandinavian units are behind. But for me that’s ok, I just use them to lay siege anyways. I never expect to get Moscow on turn 6 anymore. I assume that the UK/Anzac and that lone French fighter are going to get to Moscow.Â
Who's playing F2F this weekend?
-
I am! I thought if anyone else is, we could post who won or lost & maybe share some highlights from the game. Just curious. We start at 10:00 am tomorrow.

Yeah, please post timezone with something like this, if you’re meaning to meet in the triple-A lobby.

Sorry Guys…I meant playing F2F. I have never played AAA on-line so I’m kind of in my own pyridine when I talk A&A. I should know better on this forum.
I’m curious has to who is playing this game and where. Kind of neat to think it’s going on elsewhere in the world at the same time I’m throwing dice and praying to the dice Gods. ;-)

We game every Easter in Ohio. Our last game we were short a player so we recruited a league player(Adam) to fill in for the missing player. The game went a little slower than normal since we had to transcribe the game from the table to triple A every turn. It was a great time though. Here is a link to the game with pictures of my board and pieces.

Should this whole tread not be in the find players section?
I wasn’t trying to find players to play. I was just wondering who else was playing a F2F game and thought we could share where were playing and some descriptions of how the game went. That was it.

I have never used pyridine in that fashion before. Is this a typo/spell corrector or an unusual idiom? As a chemist, I am truly curious.

LOL! um……paradigm. I didn’t even catch that…spell check.

No problem. I am not an internet Nazi troll who makes fun of people for spell check errors. I was just curious if that really was a real usage of C5H5N.
