13L G40 wheatbeer (Axis) vs Boldfresh (+18) game 2

[wheatbeer]

I didn’t have the men to hold in BEL and strafe the way I wanted.

Also, I didn’t have any better ideas  :lol:

[boldfresh]

every time i open this one, i’m just not quite sure how best to proceed.  working on it.

[wheatbeer]

No problem … I feel I’m not too far from surrender though. I probably need dice to save me.

[boldfresh]

yeah if you’re axis, the moment you realize russia is not going to fall, the walls start closing in… i just took my first loss against karl in a similar scenario.

I believe it makes sense to surrender now.

Moscow’s not going to fall and Germany will only get less effective as Americans start landing in Western Europe. Japan’s like a mouse that the cat’s not quite finished playing with.

Good match.  I am going to make sure I negotiate the 1 unit per territory rule into future bids  :lol:

[boldfresh]

good game wheat.  good luck, go beat some people!

[wheatbeer]

Actually my stats are going to dip again.  Forgot Poland was a VC  :lol:

I’m not really in contention for a spot in the league championships, but I will attempt to play everyone in the league before the end of the season.
