XDAP LBXX - Atlanta Axis vs We Win

[boldfresh]

ahh, i see, so the winner of THIS game faces the winner of the OTHER game (the participants of which are yet to be determined) and then the winner of THAT game faces BoldDutch for the chance and gloriously taking out Cow in 2 straight matches.  love it.

[ksmckay]

Ok, allies are yours with +5.  Seth is still limited right now so we will be a bit slower getting started.  Have to figure out the plan first and then I will run things until he is good to go.  I wouldnt expect Germany before Sunday.  Let me know your bid placement.

[rgp44]

ok, will have the bid for you this afternoon.  Sunday is fine so long as we keep the game moving, Jeff and i can usually play multiple rounds per day, lets try to avoid an adjudicated game.

Bold,

Thanks for the bracket preview for the remaining match ups .  This has been a fun tournament and we still have some tremendously talented players to go up against (most notably the guys on We Win, who have done great in XDAP).  I am really looking forward to this upcoming game.

Now Bold, I know that you like your chances; however, it is my team’s destiny to destroy the Cow.  He bested me once with his devil dice, but it will not happen again.

Jeff

[rgp44]

that should be multiple turns/countries per day not rounds!

we had the COWard dead to rights as well.  i estimate the chances he had in our game if it were low luck to be in the range of 0.2-0.5 PERCENT.  :lol:

[boldfresh]

since atlanta axis and bolddutch have both been victims to the magical cow dice, it would only be appropriate that we meet in the final of the last chance bracket - i have no doubt that whichever team represents the last chance bracket will beat cow in 2 straight.  yes, i think that will be bolddutch, but it still takes one more win for us to get that opportunity, and i know that win will be hard to come by given the talent remaining.

cheers and good luck

Alright, for the +5 bid, we will take 1 infantry in London, and add +2 to the UK income.

On the allied side, I will play China, US, Anzac, and France.  RGP will take UK and Russia.

Let the game begin, post Germany when you are ready!

[Cow]

I have brand new strategy and opener. You will fear my wrath!

[Cow]

But yeah there is this match, the one after it, then bolddutch vs whoever, then the finals!

[ksmckay]

Sorry, hoping Seth can get in some feedback before we get started.  If I havent heard from him soon I will just get going.  But both of us are pretty fast posters as you can check from previous games.  I can usually post multiple turns per day if given the opportunity and same for Seth.  The deadline won’t be an issue in this game.

[rgp44]

i can tell you right now that G1 attack on Russia you’re planning is not a good idea.

[ksmckay]

Well, you might just get an opportunity to try to prove it to me.  And just because you have seen a version that was used previously doesnt mean you have seen it all.

[JeffM]

RGP, just to make sure we are on the same page, do you still want to do the true neutral crush with the allies on turn 1?

The repaired laptop is finally supposed to get delivered today! So I will once again have a reliable interweb again. If Kyle wants Germany, I’ll be happy with Japan. Same with the flip side, I’m good with Germany/Italy as well.
