You can look at the right side of my rankings spreadsheet and decide for yourself
I think you will find that there are about 6 players who have had much more success with the Axis than the Allies.
Many players have a similar record and/or win % with Axis and Allies.
Many players just plain prefer taking one of the two sides (I take the Allies) much more than the other.I think Allies have won at least half of the games in the league in the past couple of months. I think that as people get more experience with the game, the Allies will have more success, because I think it’s easier to play effectively with the Axis than the Allies, for most players, especially if they don’t have a lot of experience.

Do U have some data about an average bid of the 2013 league so far?
And data about average Allied winning bid of the 2013 league?
thanks :)
I have not been tracking bids this year under the assumption that most players are not very experienced and don’t really know what they’re doing, anyway.
I think most bids I’ve noticed range from 5 to 14, with 9-12 being most common.
Sorry, no data on bid amounts.
And what about Axis vs Allies ? Which side is better so far?
Ah, the eternal question….
I have myself seesawed on this quit a bit… at first it was the Axis then maybe the allies having the advantage.
BUT, all that being said, I think the caliber of the player and luck factor more than which side is being played. A good player with the Axis that gets good luck at the start is almost unstoppable. A good player that gets bad luck with the Axis is quit stoppable, unless his opponent is a weaker player and then the Axis player can maybe pull it off.

Yep
The fact that people are bidding between about 5 and 12 IPC’s and the fact that we have a 55% Axis win pct and 45% Allies tells me that this game is actually pretty fair… So you should take whichever side you think you can do better with. If you bid to determine who takes which side, both players should be satisfied…

If you also consider the amount of units and spaces on the board compared to classic, you might reach the conclusion that this game is pretty well balanced really. What’s 12 IPC on a board with hundreds and hundreds of IPCs for each side and significantly more territories to deal with compared to the equivalent we were bidding in Classic?
-
Exactly. This is probably the most balanced A&A game ever made :-o
Maybe it’s BECAUSE it’s a much bigger map? Anyway, it is quite well balanced.

The number of units, nations, territories, IPCs…
Many types of units, scramble, harbours, airfields, major and minor ICs, major ICs becoming minor when U capture enemy territory…
The game is phenomenal… Now almost every part of the map is important. No more ignore zones.
This game sometimes reminds me on chess :D
Definitely the best AA game so far and the game in which quality desides much more then it ever did, on the long run luck cant help U, only game knowledge, tactics, strategies, exp and being one or move moves in front of your opponent.
Not to mention tacticising about the sides and the bid affcorse. This is truly a great game.
I am happy that triple a which i play from the beginning with evolved so much. I hope Veqryn can fix those few things more and make it a ˝perfect thing˝.
I am looking forward to play offs and some tournament even as a viewer, i love this game :) 8-)

Well said, Amon

In the middle as we say here in Croatia. Exactly, it is in two short words. :-)
-
Interesting -
I wish I knew what you meant there….
Can you say it another way?
What do you mean by “In the middle”? -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinjska_alka
It means U scored, and U scored pretty good.
The American equivalent would be ˝bullseye˝ or ˝bingo˝…
As we have this Alka game, in which U have to hit with the spear while riding a tiny circle incide of a tiny metal object… Then we say ˝in the middle˝ . It means like bullseye hehe :D
But it does not apply only to sport subjects but to all hehe :)

I’m glad I asked - because that is very interesting
Thanks for the very clear answer

Wowsers!
Some of our top players have been IMPROVING their PPG, and the great, inactive Zhukov is down to 5th place
A high quality win or 2 from Cow and Alex the great, (and assuming no slippage from Hank or Ziggs :lol:) and we could have SIX players above the Zhukov line :-o
-
Big win for Ziggy puts him firmly in 3rd place
New feature
Added column for ranking players among players who have completed 13+ gamesSo there is a ranking # for players who have 4+ games, and a separate ranking for 13+ games

And yet another loss for me…. A fun game with Vold.
Vold (Axis) over Entek no bid no tech
