Cow (allies +13) vs. Bold

I disagree, it was obvious attack. You should have defended it or put it out of reach. It is the only bomber on the map.

I did it before I did my non combat moves.

You can get a moderator if it bothers you so much.

You obviously do not play friendly games. I regret playing this game with you. You asked me to play games on the forum and you want to be like this.

I will report all my other games as losses. Then I will defeat you. Just to be spiteful. Then I would enjoy playing this one game more.

It is common knowledge/agreement in friendly games that players must still ask for permission to do edits after dice have been rolled and that edits can be done without permission of no dice are involved. The grey zone are edits after convoy rolls but adding combat moves involving dice after dice have been rolled certainly always need a permission.

the offending part is NOT to expect such a move to be allowed but to but to just do such an edit secretly and take the permission as taken for granted without asking for it. And now cow even cannot refute the accusation that the reason for not asking was that he was anxious that Bold might refuse and thus hoping he would not realize.

It is blatantly obvious that official ruling will decide in favor of bold. And it was cow who did the first unsportsmanlike action to initiate the upcoming downward spiral.

If cow would have asked and Bold would have rejected the situation would have been different. But the given situation is crystal clear!

the solution for the rest of the game is to always post combat moves before dice have been rolled.

That is fine.

This game is still won for me. Without China I double the income. The entire map is coming. 1000 TUV advantage does not lie. I am not going to lose USA. Maybe I lose London for a bit. Then how do you win?  Volgograd and Egypt? Good luck.

My Russia bomber is in Russia. So be it.

GL on London. USA owns more stuff than Germany Even after this round. You killed one round of naval purchases. :golfclap:

You should have stuck to your strategy. Attack Russia, hold egypt and try to win that way.

You are playing the Europe map now. USA makes 90 a round. ANZAC is in this game as well.  Russia is richer. You get Japan units that cannot be replaced. Then you have to deal with UK Pacific.

Good luck getting enough VCs to win.

The sad thing is, you could have had a good attack on Russia. Japan had the units available to make it hard for me to hold Egypt or to take it out right. The VC win was possible for you. Since you passed on it, I been stalling out until ANZAC and UK PAC rolls up. Also the longer the game goes the better since I make double your income. Does not matter what losses I incur along the way. You have to consistently kill double what you produce.

Cow, you know you’re far ahead and victory is assured, which is why I don’t understand your shenanigans with changing a combat move after rolling combat dice.  As you’ve been saying for awhile, you can just throw units at the Axis until you wear them down and win.  And also as you said, you lose 1 round of naval purchases - big whoop.  So why the under-the-table move?

Sounds like you’ve accepted it finally (to take back the bombing move, I think it was), so play on and wrap up this game, gentlemen.  Didn’t even have to look at the map for this one.

Eh sometimes you just forget to move that one unit to end an already finished game. Now I am stuck wasting my time.

Sad thing is I am the axis in several of my other games and things are looking great. I so want to concede to drop boldfresh rating for making me literally have to take 3 capitals to win.

You guys should just have judges step in and rule for the allies. Like instead of 3 capitals make it something ridiculous for the allies to win like all the pacific vcs plus, russia, egypt, volgograd, novgorod, london, and washington.

Then I could just do that.  instead of go another 8 rounds.

Seriously who makes someone take all 3 capitals?

He explicitly said he will probably quit after you take one.

If you look at my recent game with Bold, he drug it out against me too.  I only took Rome before he resigned.  I know it smacks of poor sportsmanship, but he just really hates to quit until he thinks he truly has 0% chance I guess.

Do what I did - finish him off, and don’t play him again.  Surprised you accepted the match with him in the first place, so in a way, you deserve it.  Anyway, you are implicitly agreeing to play by the G40 rulebook every time you play a league game, and the rulebook says Allies don’t win until they’ve taken and held all 3 capitals for a round.  If you wanted different victory conditions, that’s allowed in league, but you needed to agree to it before the game started.  So finish what you started, Cow.  You agreed to these victory conditions.
