2014 Championship – (4) Ghostglider(+21) v (2) Gamerman01(Axis)

[axis-dominion]

Sounds like a plan  :-)

@Gamerman01:

@axis-dominion:

seems to me, if it is likely completely irrelevant as you say, why in this turn would 23 german fast head westward instead of the other direction to support the japs?

You see - this is disrespectful.  You are calling my integrity into question.  AND you are asking me why I made a (significant) move that I just did, which is clearly inappropriate.  Why don’t you watch silently for a while please.

[Ghostglider]

With 22 downloads of our most recent map I figured I better ensure some entertainment, so Russia purchased another airbase  :-o

[lexgreat]

great line, Ghost :)

[gamerman01]

He’s so full of it.  He’s doing it purely for gameplay reasons.  I knew there was a good chance he’d build one.  I look forward to using it.

[gamerman01]

Thought I’d be looking at 5 extra tanks in Moscow, but no.  10 more infantry and a free airbase  :-D

[lexgreat]

I was really just referring to the the comment itself. I have no idea about the current map, but just judging from the posts, must be a great game. As expected.

[gamerman01]

One of the best ever, at least for me.  Hotly contested after 18 rounds, looking to be a very long one - Ghost has been playing for the long game from round 1

I know you were referring to the comment.  Once again, Ghost jokes about doing something for a very different reason than he is actually doing it.  Funny man, he is

[axis-dominion]

Look!! A red ghost gliding through Europe!!

(Disclaimer: no one take this comment too serious or find it disrespectful in any way, ok?  :-P)

[gamerman01]

Nope, that one’s fine, good comment

[boldfresh]

russian airbase in slovakia!?!?  that’s AWESOME.

[Soulblighter]

@Boldfresh:

russian airbase in slovakia!?!?  that’s AWESOME.

I played a game against Axis-Dominion last league season and in that game axis-dominion actually had a good reason to build multiple russian carriers.

[gamerman01]

Bold has a fetish for facilities

[gamerman01]

Little break, but looks like I’m sitting down for the big J move today

Guess I got a little tired of A&A for a few days after the flurry of qualifying (barely) for the 2016 playoffs to defend my title again

[Ghostglider]

It is a matter of minor details, but actually it is not your title  :roll: The 2015 playoff is to defend the title we are playing for and so far you have not won, but if your upcomming J-move is a winning move…

[Soulblighter]

It is an old jedi mind trick or gamerman mind trick if you will. This playoff title does not belong to you.

[gamerman01]

Move along
