Sure, take your time with it. I’m out on vacation, so probably can’t make a move for another 10 days or so anyways.

Thank you Wheat, I’ll do that
So you don’t want/need to report the Odonis game, and you’re letting the Zhukov game go, is that right? -
Sorry, Eggman - keep improving, man.
I’m still trying to figure out how to crack the Air/Naval Base combo at Kangsi(?). If Japan refuses battle you’re pretty much screwed trying to help India & China. You can sit there continuing to do 100% naval buys, but by turn 3 Japan can basically match your income so you’ll never come out ahead thanks to the ungodly Air Force they start with. Not a big surprise since Japan is pretty much unbeatable in the stand alone Pacific-version… having to worry about the stack of Russian infantry really doesn’t slow them down that much.
Anyway, that’s a rant for a different thread.

Man, the puns just don’t stop. Especially when you throw in the unintended ones

You have some good thoughts.
Did you see the OOB setup? Japan had even more air. And Germany/Italy had less, I believe. It was a huge mismatch when you put them together. If you sent 5 Japanese fighters/tacs to Europe, you upset the whole balance of power in Europe :lol:Love the games, Larry, but sometimes I don’t know what is wrong with you.
Also, the UNLIMITED scramble rules (but only on islands. Japan is an island, UK is not). Oh my goodness. You’d have the Allies building an airbase on Java and stacking 10 fighters there (in other games - I never saw it in mine).Well, it took him awhile to come around, but we finally (2 years later) have a pretty good game in Global. Yes, P40 is still messed up and is pretty much a joke (No Russia, trapped UK fleet, half a USA where San Fran is the capital, nowhere for them to go since they’re on the edge of the map too).
But yeah, like you said, another thread.
I would advise that you pull up a game between 2 very successful players and see what they are doing in SE Asia, for both sides.
-
I think a lot of players are finding that Japan can fold up really quickly, maybe more often than you would think. They have an awful lot of enemies, islands to worry about, regenerating Chinese that can pop up anywhere, etc etc.
I find Japan to be the hardest power to play - no contest.
-
The Odonis game ended during the 2012 season. I’m not worried about whether or not that’s reflected in the record.

The Zhukov game, I don’t know how forfeits are handled here. The match is only at J2 though, so I wouldn’t say I deserve victory credit. -
OK, I’m clear on that now - thanks for the explanations.
Zhukov is back and playing again. Maybe you guys could resume the game?
-
Oh, I just saw that you asked him the same thing 11 days ago. He hasn’t responded? That’s weird. Send him a PM maybe.
You guys don’t have to finish it just because I’m asking about it. Just thought you’d want to, since Zhukov is back and playing several league G40 games now.
-
I count 55 games currently in progress (all of which have a post in the past 10 days), Bold
Yes, I’d say your Renaissance is here
Some of ya’lls bosses need to be called. 6 games at a time?
The government’s threatening to take away our GUNS, not our Axis and Allies sets.
Updated with games in progress.
Yellow means 2 games in progress.

Axis and Allies may not be far behind… probably all war games will be banned by extension. :lol:
-
After I posted that, I realized there are hundreds of guns in our Axis and Allies sets….
Shh!!!

With 3 games complete, the fearsome Zhukov is ranked. Where he’ll stop rising, nobody knows…… yet.

probably when he faces gamerman or cow. :lol:

Hey Zhukov, there’s something wrong about you storming Moscow with 18 tanks, 12 bombers, 20 mech, and 4 artillery remaining.
You’re supposed to be DEFENDING Moscow, right? :wink:

in the XDAP game, the germans attacked cow’s moscow stack with similar odds and he beat them BACK!! and they soon after conceded. i don’t get COW luck though… :roll:

I think Cow’s enjoying his view from the North Pole and isn’t going to risk tarnishing his perfect 3.0
