@simon33 since there were no US/UKP battles I don’t see any issue here. Italy can’t do anything in the PAC.
If you’re sure feel free!

@cwglee51 good game! It was fun and quite challenging. You also had some ridiculously bad dice luck in mid game. I think there were a couple of mistakes that might have been crucial. Earlier when you let me hit your german stack of fast movers in the mid east and now iwth not doing more to defend Germany. But this game could have ended very differently apart from that.

@Daaras Due to the snow?

@Daaras said in 2024 PTV Finals axis-dominion (x+11) vs daaras:

Side note. What do you prefer to do as the allies vs the Axis Rock?

oh i was taking your usage of “axis rocked” as an expression as in you got rocked or punished by the axis. but with your usage here it’s almost like you’re referring to a specific strategy (“the” Axis Rock) and you have it in caps. so i think i may have missed it if it is a specific strategy discussed somewhere?
