@Gamerman01:

I’m like you, I often don’t declare war on the Chinese at first but after a few rounds, it’s like, ah well, screw it.  Sick of looking at the button.  :lol:

Screw the Chinese! Except Chinese food, mmmm MSG. Yea, the Political screen gets a tad annoying after a couple rounds. It’s needed for an online play option, but I wish there were some games you could do without it and only enable it if it was needed for a Neutral DOW. What really gets me more than the politics popup is when someone leaves the tech option open in a NT game. Although I have to be honest and have been guilty of it from time to time, that popup in a NT is just a fail.

[gamerman01]

You can get rid of the tech popup midgame - you can change the game options midgame
Agree about DOW popup - would be nice if you could just pull it up when you want it

[seth4god]

Yea, I’ve gotten rid of it before in games. And had it surprisingly pop up once or twice again which was weird, but I’ve yet to replicate it.

[gamerman01]

Hmm, site is sluggish, guess I’ll post this move if it lets me.  Time to move.

[gamerman01]

Irritating - after you got missed by 6 2’s, I get hit by 2 2’s

[gamerman01]

Ouch!!  The dice were kind to you!

Site was down yesterday - here’s the file.

[boldfresh]

man seth, if you have a rare chance to beat the gamer (from the sounds of it, the dice are coming up roses your way) you better capitalize man!!!

OK, sometimes it’s a bit stressful to have several games going at once, and sometimes you have to re-orient yourself to the board, and I don’t care for that, but
I love it that I check replies to my posts and it’s MY TURN on a game!!

Coming right up, 1 simple ANZ/Fra move!

intercept Moscow?

[seth4god]

I’ll send 4 armor from EPOL to Baltic States just in case

[gamerman01]

@seththenewb:

Wowza, that’s twice now you’ve lost 2 fighters attacking an inf/mech.

:evil:

That I didn’t need to attack.

Yes it was greedy, but that is really horrible luck.
2.5% chance of losing (like in North Africa)
5% chance of losing both planes (China)

Now the interesting part will be…. do you attack Yunnan now?  And if so, do you get lucky or unlucky?  If unlucky, then the unfortunate incident with ANZ turns out to be fortunate…

Decision forthcoming

[gamerman01]

@seththenewb:

Wowza, that’s twice now you’ve lost 2 fighters attacking an inf/mech.

:evil:

2 fighters that I really needed for immediate defense, both times!!  Which is why I shouldn’t have attacked or pressed.

[gamerman01]

Yes, intercept with 2 fighters
