Well, the great Gargantua vs Karl7 G40 battle on the actual board went into the wee hours of the night without a victor. I was the Axis and Garg the Allies. Bid was 9, which was sub in med and inf in Sudan.
The Germans were closing in on Moscow and Japan on India. However, we jumped one turn ahead to Germany to see if it could take Moscow and it was clear it would still need to build up for a couple turns.
Garg also did a blitz run against Japan, which while it did succeed in destroying the garrison fleet, it did not result in the capture of Japan, which he attempted. Japan’s main fleet was south, so it would have to bring some of it back to defend the homeland, but otherwise the Pacific and the money Islands were Japan’s. China was defeated, but India was like Moscow heavily defended but Japan had large tank forces closing in.
Garg had managed to choke Italy with subs and the Atlantic was in his control. No major allied European landings loomed however.
ALl in all a good game. The dice were rather squirrelly. It seemed like we were playing low luck dice at times.
Anyhow, it ended when my wife came down at 2am and seeing the large amounts of beer bottles and blaring music declared we had to go to bed…. :lol:
Who would have won? Hard to say. There was still too much game left.
I will be sure to hit him up when I am up here next.
GG!
