XPAD-01 Dairy Qyrn (AXIS) vs Team MountainHIGH

I kinda wish I put another fighter or two on london now… japan coulda put a naval base on the little island off india then blast off to egypt while I hold volgograd and we win at the end of france.
I still expect nothing less than a pacific victory. If not, it really depends on how long I can hold london. Eventually I will get russia, it is a matter of time. My income is greater, I have boats to shuffle infantry/artillery, I make stuff on a minor, I can sprinkle air… it is going to happen eventually. After it happens, I just got to get london or egypt and if uk has not recovered it will be easy making 100 a round against usa’s 80.
If I hold london still… I may as well freaking just bypass russia and take volgograd and rush egypt.
Either way this game is going to be decided soon.
-
I give you credit seth, our game will have a clear winner and loser… none of this “I give up” after round 3 in a tournament game bs.
-
you really made us fight for our victory. I am going to get you seth! you going to attack london and you going down! Bring it on!
-
All this, must defend England BS . . . the way your fleet is, I could just block you :wink:

Didn’t Japan just take that island? And I would’ve blocked or something to stop that move. :wink:

Battle in 37 Sea Zone
ANZAC attack with 1 cruiser, 2 destroyers and 4 fighters
Japanese defend with 1 battleship, 1 carrier, 1 fighter, 1 submarine and 1 tactical_bomber
Units damaged: 1 battleship owned by the Japanese
ANZAC win, taking 37 Sea Zone from Japanese with 1 cruiser and 1 fighter remaining. Battle score for attacker is 17
Casualties for Japanese: 1 battleship, 1 carrier, 1 fighter, 1 submarine and 1 tactical_bomber
Casualties for ANZAC: 2 destroyers and 3 fightersWhy was my Tactical Bomber taken casualty before my Submarine?
You only had a 60% chance to win that battle (with 1 unit left), so I think I would have taken the Submarine first….
-
he didn’t detect the sub anymore with the cruiser so you had to lose carrier / tactical.
It is okay, he kept the cruiser around to make up for the error. Yes that was some luck on his part especially after the first round of combat.
I think it is fine.
-
It is not a big deal, you are still a powerhouse japan.
Cut usa off a national objective and do india next next round.
or ready up to all in india. I just want to see india crash, so you can win on that side of the board or take pressure off of me.

8 Russian planes!
Thier Airforce is huge!

As far as income goes, it is going to start to be on par so just rush for the victory.
Unlike all previous editions, I feel the axis can’t play an income game and have to rush for a VC win, which is why I like global. Income is irrelevant. Use position to obtain victory.
Which is what I been trying to point out for a long time. I’d just add the six mech to burma. unload japanese units on malaya. place 3 bombers there. block usa naval attack from java. 3 fighters in FIC. After india is done you can industrial bomb russia for me / push egypt africa middle east or you can go for new south whales or hawaii.
It is my job as germany to take russia. That is the reason I moved everything up to him so he can’t just blitz all over china.
I got to bring the heat over starting now.
-
We need to kill india within the next few rounds. It is not really an option at this point. I understand he can just move his stuff to west india and stare at the capital, but that is ok. you just want the 8 ipc, the victory city, and the minor industrial complex.
VCs are very important in this iteration of axis and allies.
-
something more like this would be nicer, we’ll just rush for the victory and let the chips fall where it may.
We got two shots at winning the game, pacific and europe. Both sides of the board is live for the axis, got to do it eventually to win the game, it don’t get better.
buy air this round because after this it is mostly carrier buys from japan to push for the last VCs.
-
it is a capital battle and capitals are always important. He loses uk pacific, but gets a gimped china back. You get the VC and push for the win can always pump 3 infantry in india and pull mech units up. while spamming mech from FIC and malaya to run up there.
It is a temporary recovery anyway. The important thing is, you have the ability to rush for the victory.
-
Also if you calculate the odds of you rushing calcutta and then rushing for hawaii or new south whales. You have the odds.
The important thing is you need to be position, because when I am ready to do russia, which may end up being two rounds from now or possibly 4 or 5 depending on a few things… I am going to look at japan and want to do back to back victory attacks.
If we can’t go back to back then I have to wait, which sucks, because my odds will be roughly the same since russia produces 10 units a round and I can only churn out 9 from the minors and have to buy 2 bombers to improve my chances. plus it will be difficult for me to hold volgograd.
-
These next few rounds would be fun to play live. shooka shooka.
-
I believe in you Seth!
Get em!
-
It’ll be close. I think I have a decent chance, if I can hold off Japan from a pacific win for a couple more rounds.
-
yeah exactly, I need japan to make his move so I can focus on russia.
-
Release the Kraklin!

My gf has forgotten to pay for internet, and it was cancelled 2 night ago. We’ll try to get it back up and running this weekend. Unfortunately I can’t do the turn from work, since my workplace has a proxy/vpn set up, so that I don’t receive the diceys.
