[Shin-Ji]

Feel free to revert the edit if you like - I had forgotten to send one of my bombers to kill that transport (forgot about it last turn too - it really hides up in New Orleans and I usually don’t see it).  I was gonna do it myself but then I figured I can just as easily kill it with a Japanese bomber, so whatever works for you.

[Shin-Ji]

Well, Texas rather than New Orleans, but you get my meaning.

[gamerman01]

Oh man, for a moment you make me really miss ABattlemap where you could position your units however you want…

[Shin-Ji]

Heh.  That had its good sides and bad sides, though.  I remember trying to sneak transports across the bottom of the board by putting them on the very edge of the map.  Never actually worked…

[gamerman01]

I rarely saw sneaky stuff like that - I would have unleashed on anyone trying to hide units  :-)

I am probably permanently giving up on Axis and Allies. It was fun while it lasted, but I hate losing to dice. Especially when games like this take this long. I wanted to give it another try, hoping the house ruled version of the game was more balanced, but alas. If I ever do play AA again, it will be with low luck.

@Nozdormu:

I lost this game due to bad dice. Seriously.

You lost this fight due to bad dice, I’ll tell you that!  As the video I posted indicates, I was not expecting to win in Iraq.

I think you lost the game as a whole due to some rules tweaks that still need to be addressed.

Really?  That’s the most thrilling part of the game to me.  Whether it works for me or against me.  Even when it seemed I was getting ever gorram plane shot down for a bit there, that was funny to me.  In fact, that’s exactly why I would never play low luck.

But to each their own!  Happy trails to you, friend!

As an aside, has there ever been a faster game played on the forums?  We did 20 rounds and change in 11 days.  That’s nuts!

That was pretty fast, although I doubt it was the fastest.  Among the fastest, though,

thanks guys
