Satinpurpledefender and I are FINALLY a GO, after much-ado about nothing.
I’ll post G1 tonight, OR at the latest tomorrow night.
We’ve finally resolved some work issues, so I have the time to commit.
Lol…you better get your turn posted before wednesday man…
Lots of eyes are on this game !
:wink:
HIP HIP HOORAY!
bump
It’s still tuesday!
Posting in the next few hours… (Still at work.)
Wednesday has arrived :-(
I decided to try things a little differently… hehehe…
We’ll sincerely see if you see how I see what’s been seen.
And let me know what you think Cow. Even if you’re dissappointed. :P
are you trying to beat us by flipping a coin on the first turn?
you are either mad, or have sacrificed some animals to the dice gods….
that is 4 battles with only a 50% chance to win garg….
you are nuts
That’s axis and allies baby!

I have a feeling nothing’s going to stop today’s Nazi Offensive.
Believe me… :p
if we were to play a 100 games with this opening, we could find out whether germany can afford to lose those aircraft more than uk can afford to lose those fighters
however, we are only playing 1 game, so it just kind of feels like you trying the “luck out strategy” since you can’t beat us with your own head
(ie: if you win those battles, it is not really of your own doing but you get to have the advantage anyway, while if you lose the battles you can just blame dice)
For the most part I don’t blame dice, and for the record in this game, I won’t.
There is a specific angle to my strategy that you’re not seeing (Wow do I have to spell it out for you?). That’s all that’s going on.
I find ironic and insulting Veq, that you would say that I’m not trying to “beat you with my own head”. Instead of using -standard- openers, developed by EVERYONE. I create my own unique opening to try some different approaches, and I get accussed BEFORE ANY DICE ARE ROLLED, that I’m trying to create a situation which I can blame loss on chance alone.
That’s pathetic. and I demand you retract your comments! :P
Luck is a portion of my game that I always count on, Look at any of my tournament games. Some people don’t understand her, but she makes sense to me, and she’s always along for the ride - good or bad.
We like to fight battles that others would call insane, and more often then not we prevail.
I also fundamentally look at units entirely differently in terms of value than most people do. Like the knight and bishop in chess, which is more valueable?
An American Battleship is not worth the same as a Japanese one, or a british one, or an italian one. The value of a unit is not it’s IPC cost. It’s the units capabilities, postion, turn order, available support coordination, and possibilities.
You’re also looking at the game from the perspective that a 50% battle is a bad thing.
(As cow would moo - that’s 100% of the time, 50% of the time!)
And that all battles must be fought to a close. (It just isn’t so!)
Open up your eyes to some new possibilities brother!
Scramble 1 french fighter in 110. OOL tilt, cruiser, bship, last is fighter.
Scramble 1 uk fighter in sz 111. tilt first, cruiser, dd, bship, fighter is last.
You know… if anything…
It seems to me that YOU’RE the one who seems hung-up on the -dice- considerations of the game.
Are you looking to use that as an excuse when I defeat you? :P
@Cow:
Scramble 1 french fighter in 110. OOL tilt, cruiser, bship, last is fighter.
Scramble 1 uk fighter in sz 111. tilt first, cruiser, dd, bship, fighter is last.
And look! I’ve clearly made cow -think- this through. Excellent move.
He’s realized the respective value of his British fighters, based on the displacement of my troops. Impressive.
That’s Axis and Allies.
I’ll accept your apology, and roll the dice, whenever you are ready to post it V. I wouldn’t dare proceed if you’re still concerned I’ve -thrown- the game. :)
Nice open G. Let’s hope the Dice Gods back your ingenuity.
