13L G40 Boldfresh vs. Jeff28 (Allies +11)

[boldfresh]

i understand the idea of two licks and if i were to go ahead and attack with the tank and 2 bombers it would be really dirty and i would be a liar.  since i know i would never have made the attack with only 3 units, i am essentially suggesting that we just cancel the attack entirely.  silly, but i guess i’m saying go ahead and give me another chance to do it and i will prove to you i will not!  :-)

so if you would be ok with simply canceling the attack and allowing no other combat moves (this does hurt me some because there were other combat moves i was considering using those aircraft), then we could get on with a game you seem destined to win easily  :|.

what did you mean by your last line that you were already counting all the free infantry?

[boldfresh]

i do think i would have realized the attack was not legal for the same reason - knowing that it was such a big deal if i had won, i would have had to investigate the nagging feeling that i had after the turn was over, namely - hold on, i guess tripleA makes mistakes, was that even possible to do per the RULES?

so let’s take away the concept that if the illegal attack was made and i had won that it is “moot” and consider two other options - 1) i would likely have told you it was illegal and we would have agreed to redo the turn, or 2) if you HAD realized it was illegal, you would have suggested we redo the move, and i would have agreed.

[boldfresh]

the really good news is, regardless of what happens, we will both learn some very valuable information in this game, namely the specific rules regarding flying over neutrals in both combat and noncombat.

[Jeff28]

what did you mean by your last line that you were already counting all the free infantry?

You attacked the true neutrals.

I would pick up Spain, Sweden, Turkey, Afganistan, right?

–Jeff

[boldfresh]

ah!  yes, but of course i only declared war on the neutrals in order to fly over turkey…  so regardless of what we agree, i would hope you would not also insist that i still declare war on the neutrals…  :-)

[boldfresh]

as much as i love tripleA, i cannot help but be a little angry at her right now!  i am thinking - what kind of mess have you allowed me to get into miss tripleA!?  then i think, well i guess the responsibility for knowing the rules falls on me ultimately, which is true.  and then i think, well, does anyone but a few elite individuals even really know the true rules regarding combat and noncombat flights over neutrals?  and the answer to that question pretty clearly seems to be “no”…  :roll:

so, in the spirit of good sportsmanship, i am hoping we can come to a mutually acceptable agreement, considering from each side thoughtfully, on how to handle this situation so that no matter who loses, the loser will not point back to this and say it was the deciding factor.

cheers

[Jeff28]

That’s why I’m a big fan of letting the turn stand, obv. it’s game over for you.

–Jeff

[boldfresh]

i understand  :-) but have you considered this from the other side?  ie, if you had made the illegal attack.

new information still coming out apparently, in the FAQ thread.  something now about being able to immediately land aircraft in the neutrals??  geez, i don’t know if anyone but larry and krieghund know what the true answer is to these questions.

[Jeff28]

Go ahead and re-do Italy. I will trust your word that you will not re-attack N. Persia.

You were fair to me by re-doing G1 until I got the emails, I owe you one.

–Jeff

[boldfresh]

awesome, you are top notch in my book jeff.

be sure to check out what’s being discussed right now on the FAQ, very interesting.

[boldfresh]

i need a final answer on this flights over neutrals during noncombat before i do italy or germany!!  you have my word that i will not attack NW persia.  other than that, i will redo italy entirely, except that if i attack normandy, i will take AT LEAST one hit to the italians.

[boldfresh]

i refuse to move another muscle in this game until the rules concerning these true neutrals are CRYSTAL clear to us both  :-o hopefully krieg will answer my laundry list of questions soon.

cheers

[boldfresh]

well, i THINK everything is clear to me now.  so i will try to get back on this one soon!

needless to say, i’m not very thrilled with that round, as i literally got SMOKED everywhere but turkey by the neutrals.  Turkey, the one i would have least minded to go against the odds, was the only one that went TO odds, while aircraft fell like flies everywhere else…  :roll:

seems like it so often occurs that when you have a nice plan, and all you need is some fairly reasonable dice to pull it off, it just turns out to be when they go NUTS against ya…  oh well, it will still be fun.
