2013 - AAG 40 League


  • Would there be any issue with starting a game off forum and counting it towards the league standings? I have an opponent who want to test out a secret strategy for use against someone else. But I don’t want to let him (Bold) off the hook with a nonrated game 2. Maybe if we post a start thread and the bid but don’t use the thread otherwise until we post the results?


  • Pretty sure league games have to be full disclosure

    Bold and his precious secret strategies…  :roll:

    If he wants league wins with his special strategies, he’s gotta show the cards…
    Can’t have it both ways

    I’m the one who wants the credit for the league win, since I know I’m going to win.  :evil:

    What if we post the results and the map when it’s all said and done?


  • I don’t know
    You’ll have to ask Jennifer anyway

    @Karl7:

    Are we ever going to have a 2013 tournament?

    I would sure hope so.

    I am in favour of a 2v2 tournament, with 24h posting time limits.

    I’m throwing in $50 if someone is interested. Anyone else?

    With Karl, Bold and myself already in for $50, we’re at $150…

    Clearly this should create some interest!


  • I can throw in a cool thousand . . .  monopoly dollars, maybe even 1500!

    I don’t have spare cash laying around, but I’d play in the tourney.  :-D

    each should give as they are able.  no one can tell me they don’t have a few extra bucks laying around.  :wink:


  • When money is involved, you need a good, impartial moderator with a lot of A&A experience.

    I offer my services, with no charge.


  • Or, if you can find another well qualified, trusted moderator then I would be interested in playing in it instead.

    I would actually prefer if you got to play Gamerman, but thank you for offering your expert services.

    Hey now, I am NOT evil, I am just misunderstood!  I think I just need a hug, you know, to stop my homicidal tendancies!

    2v2 tournaments are fine, the only problem is that we invariably end up with a few teams where one guy starts to not show up.

    I’m interested in another G40 tournament. I really had a lot of fun in Gargantua’s XDAP tournament and met new people.

    Solution:  24 hour move limitation. That would knock out the dawdlers

  • '12

    i’m all for 24 hrs.  maybe 48 hr total for the USA/CH/UK trio.

    Allied split would probably have to be:
    Player 1: Russia, ANZAC, France
    Player 2: USA, China, England/India

    Axis of course being:
    Player 1: Germany/Italy
    Player 2: Japan

    Just looking at the turn order, that is.  I’m not super pleased with the whole turn order and still ponder the wisdom of moving ANZAC to after Italy since there are no significant ANZAC forces that start on the Europe board.  Of course, maybe I am not familiar with some super ANZAC strategy where ANZAC ends up with Berlin and Rome?  :roll:

    Amen to that, Jenn.

    The most significant thing about ANZ going after Italy is that ANZ can take a shot on Italy before Germany goes.  If ANZ/France don’t go between Italy and Germany then it makes the Italian can openers more vicious because the Allies have no chance to close it up in between, or at least with aircraft to air strike the can opening ground units so that they can’t pull their dastardly deed ever again.

    But <cough>many of the decisions <cough>made throughout the DEVELOPMENT process of G40 from OOB to 2nd edition, through all the Alphas, seemed…… (so many words to choose from here) … questionable.

    Including turn order.
    We’re stuck with it, for better or for worse.</cough></cough>
