@Karl7:

The best learning experience was losing to Kmskay(sp)? in the g40 tourney as the allies, and also to Axisplayer in the league as the allies. � Those were games I thought I was crushing my oponants only to suddenly find myself out in the cold. �Â

That being said, this game is still up for grabs for sure. � If I don’t win in the next 3/4 rounds, it’s yours…. although, I got a few tricks left, maybe :evil:

Ksmckay just got a rare win over Yoshi, IIRC

Thanks for writing those thoughts - very interesting and enjoyable to me.
I will learn a lot from this game, win or lose.  It’s actually my first game for so many things.  I was definitely late in recognizing the peril in the Pacific.  If you can’t finish the job it definitely proves my point that it’s hard for Japan to take 6 cities because I reacted late…
Agree will likely be decided in the Pacific in the next few rounds and if you can’t do it by then, it probably ain’t happenin’.  But you never know.

Gotta go - but it’s all ready for Germany, so maybe tonight I can figure out Russia…
You have North Ukraine, Germany, Leningrad, and South Ukraine complexes still unmolested!

the next japan move will be critical… I will be sure to check tonight for russia and do Japan so you got it fresh tomorrow morning.

Sweet - it sure has been a pleasure to play you for several different reasons.  One big one is it seems like it’s always my turn

I understand what your friend was saying - this is a thinking man’s game.  In fact, I play a lot of chess, even the kind without time limits, and I’ve never thought about a chess move nearly as long as these moves.

You actually rolled too many AA in Yugo - remember the Alpha3 AA gun rules that limit 3 shots per AA gun….  But you got hit by the second one and the 4th and 5th missed anyway, so it didn’t matter.  Just pointing it out to help you remember the next time -

[Karl7]

Duh.  I know that :-P

[gamerman01]

OK, comparing maps….
