Were we playing a board game, I would surrender.  Though I have you unable to advance on the Pacific side of board, you are locked into serious cash and over time this will be a huge advantage to Japan while UK will eventually fall to Italy or a renewed Asian Naval force.  Meanwhile, in Europe, Russia looks doomed even as the USA pumps in supplies, my transports are out of position.  I’m going to concede.  As you appear open to continuing to game, I suggest another game.  I would like to ask for some IPC as Allies - BID seems fairly common on here, and you blew me out of the water in this game.  How about 9 ipc for allies?

[Whackamatt]

Let’s make it a league game.

You’re also being too hard on yourself.  I, by no means, “blew you out of the water”.  It was Round 15 and I still had not taken a single capital from you.
Yes, bids seem standard here.  How about about I give you the Allies at +7?  If yes, just let me know where you want the bid and I’ll set it up.

Also, this was game was great fun to play, and you also send in turns very quickly.  A double plus.

[Erinmore]

email remains: bolderbob@aol.com for dice.
7 Bid to Allies: First choice would be - Mech and Art in Egypt (UK) switched to Armor (2 IPC each); 1 Infantry Alexandria (UK) switched to Armor.  If this works, awesome [btw: I have played AA for several years however have ONLY been playing online here for a few weeks, so if I’m asking for something not allowed/improper regarding the bid, it is sincerely from naivety].  Thanks too for the compliment on the previous game, I appreciate it.

[Erinmore]

also - League game sounds good.

[Whackamatt]

Ah, the bid can’t “switch” things, only add new pieces.  So with the 7, you can ADD 1 Inf 1 Art to Egypt.

One rule is you can’t remove any pieces from the board, which is what upgrading effectively is.

[Erinmore]

got it. 7 ipc.  Add: a Transport @ Eastern USA
