@nikola1975 said in PTV L25 PlayOff: Surfer (Allies) vs Nikola1975 (Axis +9):
@surfer Yes :) Let’s see how you react.
Ok. Let’s try this. Scramble orders?
oh duh, sorry. For some reason I got in my head that the US was still coming up. Probably because of the other game where its the US turn next. Jet lag.
:-P

OK!
Well, in older versions US went much later in the round, too, so it does feel early for US to automatically be in the war…

Weird stuff…
At least the Finland defense was total crap
mostly just the 4’s basically all missing is a shocker… but thems the breaks sometimes…
The dice are half the excitement of A&A…
Unpredictability is what makes it great
Let’s see if I can keep this game moving now….
Shooting for Russia this afternoon - gotta eat lunch soon…
Any thoughts on my perspective on G40 I shared after UK3? Agree with anything at all? Just curious
Woot! I get the Russian NO!! :-o
AAAAGH! Battlemap keeps crashing on me
Didn’t you have 51 coming into G4? If so, you overspent by 1
As weird as it was, Finland was a median result - 3 infantry lost
Bad defense and bad offense offset :-)
yes, you’re right, change art to inf in Rom.
As for the NO, it was a tough choice between taking out the russian fleet or trying to block the convey. �Decided on the former as the UK could just take back the convoy.
As for G40 insight, you’re playing a little different as the allies, so can’t really say where the game is headed yet. �You blocked Italy which is good. �But we need to see what Japan can do before the game fully reveals itself, I think.

OK, thanks for checking right away.

Not sure what I was planning with Finland - maybe backing up with UK. But when the time came I didn’t want to. I guess I figured if you nailed it you would have to move a lot of air from Russia to Norway and could possibly open up counterattack possibilities (doesn’t look like you did - covered yourself well). 3 traded for 7 wasn’t exactly a disaster for me though. Good move on your part I think.

I’m sure I am! I haven’t watched anyone else and am just doing what I think is good :-)
�You blocked Italy which is good.
I sure didn’t block Jim’s!
But we need to see what Japan can do before the game fully reveals itself, I think.
Words of wisdom. Actually I think Japan is very, very tough to play these days. Will be fun to see what happens.
