Nothing to see here (Axis) vs. James Aleman (Allies) g40 alpha3


  • I enjoyed the hell outta this game.  Thanks.  Power to the  :mrgreen:


  • It was a fun game for me too. It really seems like the dice hate you at least when you roll them and it’s unfortunate that this played a big role in putting you behind. I think your Strategy of going for American Sea and airpower whil ethe other Allies go for ground forces and transport has big merrit espacially in the pacific. I’ll probabyl try it myself in future games if I play Allies.

    I wondered why you didn’t go for an early Complex in Spain which would be quite easy to get back even if you lost it and might have given you the edge in American production in Europe. Or as an alternative trying to bring over more ground forces via Transports to Gibraltar or Spain instead of taking Holland or Wfr and threatening Berlin every few rounds.

  • Since you didn’t hit the plane this time, I may have taken with 1 more unit than average……lets see how this goes. Thanks for offering to continue this game. Although I expect you will win (again), I’d like to see how long it takes, or whether or not I can turn this around. This has been one of the most exciting games of A&A I’ve played


  • I made some errors on the map during the Italian noncombat and placement phases. there where 1Inf and 1Mec in Kaz that where supposed to be placed in Egy and I forgot to move the 4 German fighters from Z94 to Z95 along with the Italian carriers they were stationed on. I corrected these mistakes so now everything ist as it should be according to my last Italian post.

    I won’t bother rolling Convoydamage fo Sia+ Shn. With that many dice to achieve a maximum of 2 should be possible even with your luck.
