Would love to keep carrier although you’re probably going to give up, but I gotta try to save the transports,
whatever,

Lose carrier, destroyer, ANZ CA, 2 USA CA

[Karl7]

ok, this is the roll of fate.  I have a feeling you ace this!

Rolls: 2@2 4@3 4@4; Total Hits: 72@2: (6, 1)4@3: (2, 3, 3, 6)4@4: (4, 1, 4, 5)

[gamerman01]

This time your feeling was right……  A good feeling for me to forget about the fateful Z46…

GG Karl, and it’s a shame we can only play 2 league games that count per year!

Hmmmm… But you know… we COULD start another game now and if it ENDS after November 1 it goes on next year’s league…

[Karl7]

my feeling was right!

blah  :-P :-P :-P :-P

Game is over.

Luck tipped its hand in your favor.

Oh well them’s the breaks.   We could fight on with a small chance of Axis win, but it would take so long….  So we are even.  Maybe I’ll see you at the end for a rematch.  When do the finals start?  After the end of the year?

I’ll post the win

good luck with rest of the league.

[Karl7]

oh I see you already answered my question.

[Karl7]

I’m down for another.  We could take it slow…

But I think this time we should bid.

[gamerman01]

That sounds fine

Even you open bidding, odd I open bidding
Rolling 1:
(5)

[Karl7]

The mistake I think I made here was to attack the USSR with Japan.  I should have brought down reinforcements to push the Chinese back out of yun.  I had terrible luck against China, which would have been ok but for the fact I could not follow up because my trns were out of place.  China could then move up.  That with the loss of the German airforce was really the beginning of the long end.

Oh well, glad it ended with a bang!

[Karl7]

bidding for axis?

I bid 3

[gamerman01]

Well, it was odd so technically I open bidding but I was going to bid 6, so you win with a bid of 3, OK?

[gamerman01]

I do want to say

Well Played!  It took an awful lot of hours of careful thinking and calculation (again) to give you a competitive game.  I am amazed at how fast you can play and be very effective with very few oversights.  Perhaps I will start to loosen up, but I doubt it.

[gamerman01]

Currently it’s only you and Mister Green who even qualify for the playoffs if they don’t relax the rules…
U-505 and Jim have to complete 3 games by November 1 to qualify.
8 games might have been about 2 too many…  And 6 different opponents is a little hard to meet, too…
I’m not even trying to qualify - just from the outside looking in and musing…

[Karl7]

Thanks.  I’m sure if I played AA50 I’d be at sea. (in fact I was).

Mr. Green eh?  I owe him a rematch after besting him with the Allies.

So I am axis again at +3.

ok I place 1 inf in hol

fyi, I am going to use the old map at first because I can’t open the new as a fresh map.  post a changed map after rd1 and then I can open it.

[gamerman01]

Disappointed to hear you’re having problems with the map because of me….
I have another player testing it too…  I’ll let you know if I find anything out…

In the meantime, no problem.  I always make all moves anyway, so I’ll give you the map at end of Germany’s turn or at end of Russia’s turn and then you’ll have it…

One of the files you downloaded was the start.aam map… Hmmm… works on mine, but sometimes it’s not as simple as copying files… dang…  You go to new, Alpha3 GA3.gim in Battlemap and it doesn’t work?  Hmmm…

[Karl7]

I’ll post the new thread now as G40L13

[gamerman01]

OK, hopefully Jenn doesn’t say we can’t do that

[Karl7]

ah, why not.

Game is up.

Standard moves.

[gamerman01]

OK, going to check.
