XDAP - 02 Final Draft (Axis) vs Dairy Qryn (Allies)

hmm when games come to this, I usually like to see a big battle before it ends.  I think the allies can take a big loss, I may as well move in.

I still don’t get why germany didn’t attempt to move in for volgograd and try to use air to clear out egypt or something… dumping a bunch of inf on uk would allow you hold it for awhile maybe.

hmm… I would have gone all out.

Still the shuffling of men to the middle east is a problem you could build upon. uk pacific isn’t exactly banking at the moment, but it should grow to 25 ipc which is not too shabby.

Allies are up 500 TUV at the end of Germany’s turn with a considerable income advantage… I would suspect the axis would want to move in for the europe win.

part of my problem is i do not know what constitutes the europe win?  like i said, i think garg probably would have won the game, it’s too bad he didn’t have the time.

i don’t really understand the technical victory conditions we are supposed to be playing for…  i know about the 6 victory cities in the pacific that if japan holds for a full turn (what constitutes a full turn exactly - German turn to German turn or any power through a full round and back to that power).  is it basically that you have to satisfy EITHER the G40 europe OR the G40 pacific victory conditions?  is there somewhere on these boards that CLEARLY spells this out?

don’t be a wimp cow, go for the take and hold of london!!!  geez, let’s see some action!  you’re way up, stop clowning around and DO SOMETHING IMPRESSIVE!  :lol:

thing is i am not in a hurry. :P

I know the odds of going for the vc win for germany may not have been so great.

what were they, probably at least 0.002% i would say.

idk i haven’t been calculating russia vs germany as of late.

Well either way russia would have to attack your men otherwise you’d get to volgograd and that is a wrap.

Thing is you would have to hold volgograd and egypt without losing uk for a whole round… so even if you got volgograd and egypt… you would have to hold it for one full round (till the next turn of the country you took it with). So USA has the opportunity to take london for a turn and reset the whole clock.

This is why I am in the atlantic chilling by london, so when you move in for your VCs, I move in to stop the win. That is why I keep getting carrier fighters so I can take london and then defend my ships.

Originally veqryn’s russian units to asia was a bluff, we were going to pull it back to the europe front, but we ended up just going with it.

Hard to say what would have happened without a big showdown between germany and russia to be honest.

@Cow:

Hard to say what would have happened without a big showdown between germany and russia to be honest.

i think it’s your turn Cow.  are you still stalling?

veqryn’s turn.

was in hong kong for 2 days, will post right now

btw, i don’t think germany/axis has a chance in hell of victory anymore

you have to hold 8 VC in europe side for 1 full round (not a half round), and I honestly do not think you have a chance of getting it for even a single round

cow, i have roughly 50% on killing all units in syria. 
I can attack with 11 mech, 1 tank, and 1 bomber.
If i am losing, i can retreat to iraq or trans-jordan

of course, if i am losing, i will be losing by a lot, because it is an “all 1s” attack

other options: sit in iraq or sit in transjordan

I do not control you. Do what you feel.

you do not need to be in asia anymore, I got it. just give me the inf and aa guns for china. if anything you can setup to blitz malaya back. though usa can do that.

In other words do whatever you feel like.
