W E    S U R R E N D E R ! !

Don’t drop any nukes please!

What a dull end… i had no major battle… only took blows and traded land for time…  :cry:

Japan was irrelevant (i.e. merely surviving) and Leo believed he was going nowhere with Germany.

If there was some way Japan could have been relevant in the situation we now find ourselves Seb I would love to hear it.

Of course the trick is not to get yourself into that situation! Still have in mind the J1 DoW being okay if J then takes India thought and someone has now done that against me so will be ready with that for a future game.

I am trying to convince the others to http://www.boardgaming-online.com

Thats a site dedicated to “through the ages” online.

I just dont know how to teach leo and adam the rules… they are more complex than A&A i say… although the online engine prevents game errors or unallowee moves.

You have an idea how to break em in?  :roll:

@Credulous:

I think it would be a shame if we stopped playing Global 1940 but is Leo too busy nowadays? Maybe if we adopted a slower pace without the relentless pressure to take a go as soon as it was your turn might help?

That is probably true. I have asked Leo whether it is the case.

We dont need to stop. But a new game would be nice for a change…

PP and Cred… may be go to boardgaming online http://www.boardgaming-online.com
And create an Account. I guess it would be easiest if I teach you and then either of you has a call with the big man and guides him through?!

Just to get thinks started.

Seb

Happy to give it a go Seb. I have come down with a cold though and my head feels like mush, so can I hold off for a few days - by which time I may actually take it in!

I forgot to move one of the German Subs out of SZ107  to SZ103.
Japan, please do.

Have you played Germany yet, PP? Seb has played both.

I don’t think I have, so perhaps it is me as G&I then. But I think J is up next in this variant? So need to wait for Seb which means he can say whether he is happy with that.

Seb and happy in the same sentence? You kidding!
You can be Germany and go to the Ball, Cinderella. We don’t mind.
