The eternal poll: Who does the game favour?

I think it’s pretty equal.
When you first try it out with other newbs, Germany has an advantage, but once you get better at it starts equalling up.
Hint: For it to be equal you probly wnat a good USSR player :wink:

I think that the Allies do have an adavantage over the Germans…

That guest was me. sorry.

The allies just have to stay in the game till usa can bring enough supplies to slaughter germany

I have never seen a game where Germany has won :(

Huh? :o How many games have you played? I won a game yesterday being the axis. Use Barbarossa and forget the western front. Cannot fail :wink:

Yes it can. :x

Okey. I was that guest. And of course that tactic can fail, but mostly it works

Yeah, I know it can work pretty well, but I’ve also seen it fail, too.

If both sides are being played by veteran players, 75% of the time I’d say the allies win. Yeah, Germany is damn powerful, but despite that, it is really difficult fighting a two front war as history proves.

I think germany has a huge advantage over allies because of the middle East thing, but if the allies guard it well its pretty even. It all depends on the players :wink:

I fixed the poll options and deleted all the BS

Shortgame (within 4-5 rounds) - Germany.
After 5 rounds - Allies.

If the German’s allow the allies to get 5 rounds then the Germans should be seriously checking their strategy for holes. (There may not be any holes, your opponent could just be better or the dice could look unfavorably towards youm but you should check anyway.)

Judging by your poll results, players find the game with a reasonable range of being balanced. Probably explains why it’s a good, popular game!

I agree with both cystic crypt and Jennifer - - except I would bump the delimiter up to round 6 or 7. In my experience, with determined (and lucky) efforts in the Atlantic the Axis can hold off UK/US efforts that long in case its first strike into Moscow falters and it needs a second wave to succeed.

I agree with what CC said, so I voted balanced.

HAVE YOU SEEN THE GERMAN FORCES AND THEY START WITH 40 DOLLARS CAN ESILY TAKE THE CONVOYS AND THE MIDDLE EAST.
