    Sir, just a quick note.

    Per history a UK inf was on a US transport after US8 in sz92.
    Now it is not anymore and I have no idea why. Seems like tripleA took the wrong inf off during my UK NCM. I hope you believe that it does not make sense to have this unit on a UK TT as I have 9 attacking US units and I obviously wanted to have a TT that is capable to transport units for an amphibious assault during both, US and UKs turn.

    Thus I treat this unit as it were on a US TT.

    Okay, that total blow ends the game.
    10 hits with 50 defense followed by 9 hits with 36 defense
    And look at that arty in Bryansk that took of 2 figs in that battle, stunning defense ;)

    This ending is now a bit disappointing to me.

    I think if I get a bit of something like good dice I could have stayed in the game. Take Egypt back and kill the units in Iraq with 2 ground and 3 air.
    And Egypt was at 63% so not a complete suicide mission. I planned to fight 1-2 rounds and finish off with UK.

    But to be clear: Even if Egypt goes well you were still clearly in the drivers seat with the better position.

    I think during the whole game the dice kind of slightly preferred you. Nothing extreme but there was only that Java hickup and except that everything went smoothly for the Axis (including a good result against my Scramble G1) and I believe Allies need more defense hits in average and less disasters on their end. The battle that bothers me most was that Bryansk battle with Italy. Not that you won but that you kept a significant can opener after that. That just allowed the Germans to grow too quickly and accelerated the fall of Persia.

    But this game was far away from being a so called dice game. I think with better dice for me the game would have stayed competetive for a longer while at least. You played well and deserve the win. I did not play bold enough during the early US/UK turns and never got a grip on the Axis position, neither in the Pacific nor in Europe.

    Good luck in the next round.

    Btw: are you up for a rematch with same sides?

  • '19 '18 '17 '16 '15

    I fully agree with Tobias summary of this game.

    And I would add that you were not at your highest level this time.

    My padawan  :-D used that chance really well, very very VERY meritorious having played A&A only for 2 years, you have won vs the player with more options in my view to win the 2015 tittle vs the great Zhuk, and may be 2015 is the best league ever. An enourmus achievement in any case Chema.

    Congrats! you were brave and it is clear to me that you have surpassed your master.

    I will watch that interesting rematch. Real Madrid playing Barsa next Sunday too :mrgreen:


  • @JDOW:

    Btw: are you up for a rematch with same sides?

    Hi Tobias,

    Yes I’m. You have played a great game, as I said before, very challenging. I’ve spended a lot of time making up my next move. So let me set the next playoff game and I will post you when the rematch is setted (suppose the same bid?).

    I agree with you with the Italian combat in Bryansk, wasn’t decisive but, helped Germany in making Middle East for  one or two rounds before.

    Cheers Jose

  • '15 '14

    Yeah, same bid is fine if we stick to BM2. If we play BM3 we need to adjust the bid as Japan as an easy extra NO then.
