Fun play.

[Cow]

You can block with a french cruiser.

[Cow]

Europe is out of control anyway… you may as well do a desperate attack.

:x@Cow:

Europe is out of control anyway… you may as well do a desperate attack.

against UK?

ok… let’s get crazy

I;ll do ANzac

[Cow]

I know Japan and Italy is about to take the Russia NOs away.

Russia or Egypt will eventually go unless something crazy happens (at that time I got the VC win).

Considering Egypt and Russia are super far from help…. You may as well go nuts.

[Cow]

Russia could attack Germany too. Only way to break free.

ha ha…. you’d think that in a desperate battle the dice would give me a break… but no. I got diced AGAIN…

whatever… this game is over.  My hope was to build up fast with the US to take back UK but I don’t think that can happen before you get Cairo…

plus I will lose the fleet anyway.

Interesting game in terms of a learning experience.  I think you and Gamer are good because you guys are willing to risk your planes.  I am usually too conservative to do that.

GG

I’ll post

[Cow]

GG

Yeah plus Germany outproduces Russia especially once Japan comes in and takes away the NOs from Africa. Then you will produce like 15 a round. When germany has 3 minors making 9 units a round.

UK is a fortress. Germany has naval to guard itself. Italy sends 6 units a round to africa, eventually it gets Egypt.

All around screwed. Germany makes more than USA. Japan still in this game to boot.

[Cow]

37 ipc advantage for the axis and growing.

I played the income game.  I figured as long as I make 3 inf a round for london, which only costs 9 ipc and london is worth 6…. it pays out nicely.

[Karl7]

I think if the UK hadn’t totally flopped UK 1 the game would have been more competitive…

Geeze!  losing those battles like that sure smarts…
