Viel Spaß und viel Glück! :-)
Scrambelst Du nach Seezonen SZ110 und/oder nach SZ109?
After FORTY-FIVE ROUNDS, I finally concede. souL’s Allies over Whack’s Axis.
A series of consistent dicings on Rounds 39 & 40 lead to the German collapse. German & Japan lost their Indian fleet, and the awesome plan to take Egypt met with disaterous resulst in NW Persia. Instead of winning by a wide margin, I lost everything, thus there were no planes to land on the Greek airbase and newly purchased carriers (factory in Greece). Then the US/UK Indian fleet which shouldn’t have existed was able to destroy my 5/6 transports that would have made a go at Egypt.
In all, quite the game. Collecting 120 with Germany was fun, as was reviving Japan to an income of 50ish. Many mistakes were made, but I never expected it to last this long, either. "If I just do this, then I’ll win!" doesn’t work…10 Rounds later
One VC away for about 30 rounds made for an exciting game.
Thanks for sharing Whack, sounds amazing, even when you lost, these kind of events are what make this game a great game!!!
Dane concede the victory to Helmutpower after only one round!
I know its Eric M instead of Helmutpower, but if you look who reply in that topic, you’ll see my nickname (Eric is my name)

I looked at the game. I could win with the axis if I took over. That game is far from done. I see Burma can easily be taken along with shan state. Naval does not stop japan from loading transports unless you declare war first.
You lose Burma and Shan state. You cannot take back shan state. BOOM J3 India fighters from an air base on hunan, kwangsi or siam hit india and land shan state. So simple.
J3 India is real.
Sea lion is also real. Germany has really good odds to take london because you took units off of london and Germany has all of its air and bought naval round 1.
So round 3 no UK or UK Pacific. Sounds like an axis favored game to me.
I mean wow, I would totally take both UK out of the game round 3. Easy game.
Forum players are totally different than people playing at home or on the lobby. If your economic plans do not pan out just go for capitals, it is that easy, that is why the axis win most of the games, something goes bad, well the axis can always win by attacking capitals.
Even if this was a LL game. Both UK dead 100%. You can take the economic lead right then and there. Then snowball that advantage to grow your income or go crazy and try to get a quick VC win.
It is not like you have to defend london forever, keep USA away for 2-4 rounds and that is good enough. Gets Japan plenty of time to get big and fat while you stare at Russia.
Cow, I know it’s who you are and what you do, but I ask that you don’t use the game results thread for belittling your fellow league players and their games, or for lecturing us on game strategy.
Apologies, Helmutpower and Dane
It is nothing personal. I just want free wins too.

I just couldn’t come back from a disaterous dice in Round 4 that saw the destruction of the US fleet. Solid play from Juan kept it out of my hands from that point on.

Cow over Whack +13. I didn’t capitalize properly on some good Pacific moves, resulting in too many rounds not helping the London.

Had UK, then lost it, took Moscow, but couldn’t hold off the KGF onslaught since my Pacific strategy was garbage!
Good Game JuanSpain!

wheatbeer over cow
Make sure you take a 18 bid minimum vs wheatbeer. Also zhukov as well. Try to avoid playing experienced axis players with low bids like 15 or lower.
we all love unsolicited cowdvice. :-)
