Wheatbeer (axis) vs kilroynothere (allies) G40 A3
-
China and Calcutta are in stronger positions than normal, but the Japanese economy/fleet are in better than average shape despite that. The USSR may be weaker than normal, but Germany can’t go full bore with Allied landings. The Middle East standoff is pretty typical.
It’s unusual for a G40 game to end before turn 7. Most of my games run about 10-15 turns unless there’s a bad dicing or major mistake.
Don’t worry about the delay.
The only advice I would have would be cutting down Japan’s economy, particularly by holding one or more of the DEI (even if it means sacrificing transports).
-
Thanks for the advise. I’ve thrown away a couple of transports harassing you in the DEI, but that is about it so far. It is a costly delay tactic, but feel it had to happen. I really don’t know what exactly to do, but going to keep on doing it!
If you can imagine, I have a US turn!

Hey Wheat,
Sorry for the massive delay. Been swamped with work and just haven’t had the time to get to it. I’ve noticed that TripleA is now available. Never really played it PBEM, but sure looks easier. Interested in trying that out? Although curious how this game goes. This is the longest I have ever played an A&A game.
-
I do plan to try triple A in the near future. Also, if you want to omit typed NCM to speed up play in this match, I don’t mind.
triple A can post direct to forum as well I think (unless ppl using it are copy-pasting here from email)
-
Yeah, i think it auto posts. Seems brilliant… which means it is too damn smart for me! :-D
We can continue on with Abattlemap for our game then.
You thinking about playing Garg’s new tourney. We can partner up if you want to. Like your style of play a bunch.
-
I asked Jercules earlier today if he was going to sign up. If he doesn’t want to play or doesn’t want to team up with me, I’ll play on your team. I think you’ve played against him as well, so you can also ask if he wants to make a team out of the three of us.
-
Yeah, I have. He’s quite good. He’s a VERY aggressive axis.
A three person team might be good for us all as we all three tend to have absences where we can’t find the time to play. I’ll ask.
