2014 League Post Game Results Here

@Karl7:

Hey all!
I am in Vancouver and ran into Gargantua.� He and I are set to play G40 face to face today!� The bid is set at 9. We are going to flip for sides.� I will let you know who wins!
Since Garg is not in the 14 League, I know it won’t count.� But thought I would mention it anyway.� He schooled me in a game of 1914 a few days ago. So I am not so sure how long I will hold up under his G40 skills.

This is very cool. Convince him to start playing in the league. GL

@Gamerman01:

Whoever gets Axis should win, Karl  :-P

Perhaps.  I’ve been on a loosing streak so we’ll see……  :mrgreen:

Don’t do anything dumb karl!!! :-P. Stay within yourself don’t buckle under his bullet boy tactics!

I will say this, playing on an actual board instead of a tiny screen will make it easier to avoid strategic mistakes……

Careful…. it’s harder for me.

Mostly I meant that on a board you can see the whole map at once, which given I play triple a on a labtop can be frustrating.

@Gamerman01:

What zoom % do you use, Karl??

50% is the best I can do on my screen

Zhukov (Allies +20) over wheatbeer (Axis)

Yeah, that’s not a good view.  I can go at 35%

Don’t miss details. 100% plus a real map aside.  :-)

Bjergmose (Allies) lost to Rasmustb (axis)

UK1 DOW a mistake…didn´t even get the trannies.

Every axis nation was having a blast at the bjergmose sitting duck event  :-o

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!

Just a coincidence that its just right after the monumental karl/garg matchup but…

In the spirit of great F2F matchups… Bold just happens to be in Gamer’s neck of the woods and Gamer just happens to possibly be available for a fast and loose fun game…  we will see if it takes shape.  Just in case, what do we think is a fair allied bid gamer?  What say we agree on a number and decide sides with a coin flip perhaps?  Or we can bid but if we are going to bid, let’s start the bid now.  This would NOT be a league game  :-) and strictly for fun and for old times sake!

first ever full F2F game of global?  we will see.

I know the feeling Karl: wife coming downstairs unable to sleep from the now very loud drunken playing and saying something loving…reminding you that you are getting up with the baby at 6, not her!

then the action:  111 gamer loses 2 subs and a ftr in round 1 and a second ftr in round 2.  THEN in 110 gamer opened with only 2 hits.  the british responded with a perfect 6/6.  i offered to take an average result in this battle so the game could continue.

russian buy - 6 inf, 3 mech, arm.  russians stack yunnan with 2 ftr, mech.  mech arm to szech and kazak.
