XDAP Final… eh, i mean, Semifinal - Allweneedishank vs. TeamBoldDutch

[Hank13]

oooo, triple dog…

@Hank13:

oooo, triple dog…

:-P

@Hank13:

oooo, triple dog…

Let me know if I need to raise the ante but triple gog should suffice.

[boldfresh]

Cow with your help maybe allweneedishank can win.  I know for a fact you dont want to face us so go ahead and help these guys all you want.

[Cow]

They have the odds to sink your fleet without DDs. 60-70% odds, as long as the naval is lost first so the subs dont participate.  Japan can instantly get some good africa money with just 2 transports. TUV swing is about even, but if Japan gets lucky it would force you to use a reroll, in which case the battle would end up being about even (assuming your 1 time reroll is a low luck reroll and not a dice reroll).

That is my two cents.

Italy can fortress Europe. Germany will eventually take Russia. That is as long as Japan is doing something. May as well wreck sink USA. What else is Japan going to do with his air?

[Cow]

That is ‘my help’

I am not playing so I do not give a shit. They might be calculating other things. The easiest way to win this would be to blow out the naval and get Japan on the ball.

The income war continues it seems.

[Cow]

Russia airbase on Finland could be interesting… Russia kinda needs men… but it would be funny.

Italy should really max placements on Europe and ease Germany’s burden.

Cow stop talking strategy in our game thread please.  This is the tournament Final.

[boldfresh]

we are trying to squeeze in a quick franzac for you boys this am.  chances look good.

[Cow]

Ban me.

I am the final boss.

[boldfresh]

@Cow:

Ban me.

I am the final boss.

I can’t ban you, I can only ask you to shut your big ol flappin mouth.

[boldfresh]

You sure seem to be trolling the game quite a bit.  Maybe you’ll actually learn something - tournament finals are usually pretty good.

[Gargantua]

@Cow:

Ban me.

I am the final boss.

lol that is a pretty funny quote.

Welcome to the cow level.

[gamerman01]

You have to beat the Grim Reaper (AWN) before you get a chance to fight Dracula (Cow)
(Castlevania I reference)

Or, if you prefer, you must knock out Super Macho Man before you even get to face Mike Tyson
(Mike Tyson’s PunchOut)

(btw I have defeated both Dracula and Tyson - no cheats, no emulator, no save state)  :-D

[boldfresh]

in reality it’s more like saying you have to defeat Mike Tyson in order to face Glass Joe.

[gamerman01]

So you are 2-1 vs. Glass Joe

[boldfresh]

Yes, I am 2-1 against glass joe (cow).  Soon to be 3-1.  And there is a giant ***** next to the 1.

[gamerman01]

Glass Joe was 1-99, I believe, so you are being a little harsh
Cow is at least Don Flamenco
