Tank level Corriganbp vs. Heavy Bomber Cmd Jen A+3 (11/8)

Jennifer

Well yeah, I usually win with Japan as well, but then – Japan always wins doesn’t sound as catch-ey. And besides the truth is that the allies decide whose going to win, they could shut down Japan if they chose to focus on it at the expense of Europe.

Yes. In Alpha 2, this was my modus operandi (or however it is spelled.) I would contain Japan then crush Italy. It was the most secure way to win.

I’m just going to conceed it. I can almost certianly stop you from winning for the next 10 or so rounds, but that’s not going to make it easier for the Allies to win, it’ll just get progressively harder.

If you want to try it again, let me know. I think you wanted more than one game to see if you could get London. If not, I’d like to turn the tables on you.

corriganbp

I guess one way to make Alpha 3 (aka “The Axis Always Wins”) a competitive game would be to see how many rounds it takes each of us to get the VC win. So that could be your motivation to continue playing. I think I’m a lot closer to the VC win then you realize. However, I realize that it would be very painful for you to witness the fall (or liberation) of Ukraine.

I am willing to play another game. I will even take the Allies (yikes) without a bid if that’s what you would like.

I certainly won’t be shocked if I lose with the Allies, after all this is TAAW (the axis always wins) not the A&A that I used to play that at least had something like the illusion of balance.

And frankly if the Allies won 60% of the time, that never really upset me.

Jennifer

If you want to see if you can repeat your performance to see if it will work twice, we can do that.

Otherwise, yes, I’d like a chance to show you how India falls. WEG I think with that ammunition under your belt, coupled with your KUKF (Kill England First) you could pretty much demonstrate to everyone why Alpha 3 should be scrapped. If you had crushed India as well, you probably would have ended this game 10 rounds ago.

Jennifer

And no, no real reason to continue this. The only chance left on the board was to push Russia into Europe and get into the 50s or 60s income wise. America was already reduced in cash, there’s not much left…even though you never did get Africa.

corriganbp

And look how well China and India are doing!! :-o

So I guess my challenge as the Axis player is to see if I can avoid losing India by the 3rd round!

Oh what a game it is!! :wink:
