StuckTojo (Axis) vs. Ktylu1 (Allies +25) - REMATCH

  • 19 17 16

    Wow. Some of the worst dice I’ve ever seen.

    I’m going to have to think about whether I even want to play this one out.


  • To be honest,
    sz 110 is feasible and sz 111 is as well.
    France rolled really well. However, if you would not of split with southern france and paris attack on one turn it might of been more efficient.
    Just my .02

    The less units used in southern cost ya in france.<– “Im Captain Obvious”… haha

    I am a cool cat though, if you want to start from scramble and re-roll or if this justifies a resolution. I am no rule master sir, i just want to play. I dont know what happens if someone withdraws, i dont care like i said. Whats fair is fair, im not hard to please  :-D

    I’ll tell you what:  when I originally consented to give you the 25 buck bid it was only because I thought you were a newbie. Obviously, you’re quite a bit more experienced than I thought you were, and are only new to online AAA.  :wink:

    So, given your high bid and my complete faceplant in round 1 how about we start a new game?  I wouldn’t mind bidding. I’ll post your win on the site.

    I’ll start by bidding 23 for the Allies.  What say you, sir?


  • 22 is low as ill go, yeeep!    haha  :-D

    And yes im very new to the online playing. Board game mostly…

  • 19 17 16

    I’ll bid 20 for the Allies.  :-)


  • And what units would you like where sir? I will get a new thread started once i have your placements choices  :-D

  • 19 17 16

    Damn, now you’re making me think  8-)

    OK

    a sub in sz 98
    an artillery in Amur
    a tank in Egypt
    and
    an artillery in Anglo-Egypt Sudan, please.

    I had this exact same thing happen to me in Mr Roboto’s game.  I extended myself to try to take Southern just like you did.  I ended up winning that game. Italy took France and became a powerhouse. If it happens again don’t be so discouraged and play the game out a few rounds to see.

    Good Luck

    Here is the game I lost France with Germany and came back to win.

    I’m not posting this to brag but just to show you I was in a similar pickle. Sometimes our worst enemy is our own selves.

    Thanks, Cyanight. You make excellent points  No question I did blow my top there somewhat. It’s pretty cool that you were able to defeat a guy of Mr. Roboto’s skill level even after losing in France G1.

    Interestingly, we both pursued almost the exact same attack plan with Germany.  I would note, however, that all my battles were pretty much disasters:  I got wiped out in S France, too, and didn’t take it, either; I got wiped out in sz 106 and still left UK with a transport, and I took a heavy beatin’ in sz 111 while hardly making a dent in the UK’s fleet. Throw that in with the complete debacle in France and I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry  :-D

    Nonetheless, it’s poor form to quit like that.  The best way to learn how to deal with adversity is to actually play it out, because as you’ve noted, it can be done.  So your advice is well appreciated.  :-)
