@Boldfresh:

that would be nice - IF the USA was at war.   :roll:

Well this is what I get for glancing at the map for all of 20 seconds.  :wink:

i think cow might be doing the same thing!!  :lol:

[seth4god]

Yeah well at least I’m not the one playing in this game. I think it’s safe to say that the script he was following is busted.  :wink:

I must say, that the axis position in this game a lot better than a certain game I could mention.  8-)

You know you’re going down in that one don’t you?

[boldfresh]

cow, don’t do anything you aren’t 100% sure is legal.  tripleA makes several mistakes regarding the neutrals so before you roll any dice on a turn involving the neutrals - you had better make darn sure that what you are doing is ok.

cheers

leonardo did a lot of sketches of the mona lisa before he painted the masterpiece.  :wink:

[boldfresh]

plus, you’re a better player than cow, so it’s now a fair comparison at all.

@Boldfresh:

[boldfresh]

something tells me cow might be getting a BEATDOWN from Veqryuhn very soon

[boldfresh]

i have to say, it’s been quite a while since i’ve seen the germans buy 2 acc, battleship, AB on turn G2.  man, oh, man.

@Boldfresh:

I would change that to read that I MIGHT be a better player than Cow when I’m not off making stupid mistakes.

And you’ve got the benefit of seeing what didn’t work in our game. I’m curious to see how this one turns out for you.

Congrats on trapping my fleet that I normally lose by round 2 anyway.

[Omega1759]

Uk fleet is lost, but Italy still has its fleet and the US has TRANSPORTS…

There is a price to pay with Japan and the neutrals of course, but on balance it looks like the allies are in trouble here.

I really don’t get the benefit of buying transports until they can be protected (I did not design the game though)

@Cow:

Thats not a fleet thats a superfleet.  And when you lose it, you normally get something in return.  Good one cow.

He is following what larry does.  :wink:

He bought the US transports thinking he would have the cover of the UK fleet in the atlantic.  Now we will see if cow can adapt to something he is seeing for the very first time.

Bold beat me to it - but yeah, the plan is to use the UK fleet as cover, but when we do what we did, we’ve set the allies back several rounds. And people are too afraid of the +6 inf in Mongolia, + X around South America, Middle East and Africa - the inf are out of position, some are hard to get, and it only takes a well coordinated WHACK to take them out…

[arathorn]

Bold and I used this strategy against my brother and ErwinRommel in a recent game - and it was golden!

[boldfresh]

japan is coming soon

[boldfresh]

i have another surprise for you cow.  you should feel really special that i have thought all this stuff up just for you.  :wink:

lunch then posting - within 1.5 hr
