I don’t know how I didn’t see your post.

Interesting! Sure, I’d like to play my first game with default league rules, thanks.

Agreeing on starting setup is what matters, not the bidding method. +8 as a transport to the Carolines is fine.

Especially since I’m allies, I’ll set up the game and play R1 when I have the time and energy, will tag you

Round 5 done

Germany to go

Godspeed :)

We will need to take casualties round by round at least initially, so please post the game file as well after the attack rolls so I can decide on casualties.

Also, make sure you are playing on Forum mode and not Local, so the dice rolls come through.

Yeah, I resign!
I think the first round back in January 2024 decided a lot and then the dice and some opportunities let me back in the game. You locked it down and played with patience, very well done.

On the one hand, I would want to continue to see what continues to happen but I’m running out of growth opportunities. And the US has heavy bombers. I’m not even going to roll some dice for tech before deciding.

On the other hand, it’s a slog that is taking a lot of time and energy out of both of us when it’s our turn.

Very well done, earning a long hard win and not forfeiting the good start.

We started out just experimenting with a novel map and throwing in tech just to make it even more interesting and ended up with a 29 month game. The first 5 rounds of disorientation were pretty wild and we both had to survive that too.
