I am a retired gentleman with a few games going who would like to play a little more against people. There seems to be a pattern where the player who loses does not want to play again. I have played several games that I lost and did not want to play again. I have won against several players and they did not want to play again. There are a few like Dawgoneit who love to play and will not quit playing you. What I would like to try is sort of an automatic bid improvement for the losing player. For example: I lose a G41 with no bid then if we play again same sides then I get a 10 or 20 bid sort of depending on how bad I got beat. I win at 20 we go to 10. I win at 10 we go to no bid.
If you want to play without the bid improvement just let me know and we can do it the more common way.
Newbie Looking for Game
-
I am new to this site and to A&A in general. The only rules set that I honestly feel comfortable with so far is Spring '42, but I know that LHTR and Revised aren’t too terribly different. I have never played a full game of A&A, and I have never played even a partial game through PBF or PBEM.
That being said, I am looking to cut my teeth on some A&A. I am open to PBF or PBEM, whichever my opponent is more comfortable with. I seek an opponent that can thoroughly trounce me while keeping the kid-gloves on somewhat. I want an opponent that will be patient with a new player and can help me develop strategy. I do not expect to win or even make my opponent break a sweat. Playing against me will require a bit of hand-holding, but I am a fast learner. I have no preference to a certain side or power.
If you are interested, you can reply here or feel free to drop me a PM. If you don’t wish to play against me, but you still want to help me learn, feel free to school me up. If you want to ridicule me and call me a newb, feel free. Sticks and stones will break your bones, but this Marine fights with a rifle. ;)

I’ll take you on Marine.
But more importantly… I’ll teach you along the way. If you listen to me before you get into bad habits, you’re level of success should be higher. :)
Ready to jump in the fight?

I sure am. Just tell me what I need to do to, and we can get cracking.

Go there, follow the instructions, and get TripleA installed on your computer.

I’ve already installed TripleA, and I have fiddled with it a bit. I have been playing a few rounds on LHTR settings, sans tech, but I am not sure which of the games is supposed to most resemble Spring '42, if any of them are meant to.

Ah my good friend.
They had to change all the names…
It’s no longer Axis and Allies, it’s WWII
Spring 1942, is WWII version 4 I believe.
Shall I start us a game thread? actually… I just will.
