XDAP-01 DbD (AXIS) vs. BiA

@Canuck12:

Sorry, I think you misread my post

“Map for scrable:”

You are expected to play your scrabble turn. I have played my first word:

“AS” Which is two points plus double word score for a total of… 4!

This caused me to laugh for an unreasonable amount of time.

Also, let me take the time now to say thank you for such a great first online game. I may not have played very well, but I still had a great time, and your team has been great to play with.

Garg, I think your tournament is working. You have converted at least one person to the A&A online cult!

Glad you guys had fun. We certainly did too. The game was a lot closer for a long time than the current map suggests. There were a few turns like 3,4 and 5 where I was sure we were fcuked. I thought we would never get Egypt despite the MASSIVER german investment there and ANZAC and the US would continue to pot-shot Japanese transports until they were crippled.

I was pretty worried about the US landing at Gibralter and fucking me around with those bombers, too.

So it goes. I learned a few things, I hope you guys did too.

Also, this will be my last post for a month. So I will turn command of the German forces over to MostHoly because he totally got the shaft with Italy in the first 3 rounds.

It’s been a slice guys. Good luck in the next few rounds!

P.S. Where are you guys from in Canada? I’m moving out east this fall but make regular trips to Calgary and Vancouver. It’s always good to have a gaming buddy at an outpost somewhere else in the country.

That of course only applies if Germany intends to Repair the damage done… Which could easily be done on the German turn if they so choose… ;)

the plus 2 is calculated in the role… FYI.  I believe if you check the dice, it should read 1.

Unless you are playing a REALLY old version maybe… ?
