@wizmark I’m using 5. It all depends on who your playing. I don’t even have the newest one downloaded yet. Lol

We’ve had a resurgence in interest in PtV it seems, looks like we are around 80 games so far this year (I count 160 finished games in the ELO spreadsheet, but they each take 2 people). Compared to 51 I believe for 2023. That is either a massive uptick in interest or those of us playing are playing a lot more (@mikawagunichi leading the way at 30! games this year). I thought I would consult some ancient wisdom from yesteryear in the PTV Strategy thread here:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35558/ww2-path-to-victory-strategies
Pleasantly surprised to say, I’ve been in the kitchen cooking and have a strategy not discussed at length. Most of the discussion was around the Germany-Russia front and J1 viability. Looking forward to sparking some discussion with my post (incoming) over there!
Cheers,
Stucifer -
I am also presently motivated to make some strategy videos using my printed PTV vinyl mat, hopefully will have one detailing my super-secret strategy posted soon on YouTube. If anyone has suggestions for a video topic on PTV, strategies, introduction, changes? please let me know!
Link to strategy reveal:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/post/1729346Will make another post once the video is uploaded. 🤓

I posted this in the strategy discussion thread, I published a video going over my J2 strategy a couple days ago and a new video today discussing PTV changes from OOB.

Cheers,
StuciferThat’s awesome to hear about the uptick in games this year! It’s cool that people are getting more into it. What kind of strategy are you planning to bring up in the PTV Strategy thread? Anything new or different you’re excited to share?

We’re in the second half of December, so you can “sign up” any time, tell me what version of the game you want to participate in the
POST SEASON
PLAYOFFS
TOURNAMENT
CHAMPIONSHIP BRACKET
or ARENA OF DEATHWhatever you like to call it. By now you know what I’m talking about, I’m talkin’ 'bout naming new (or repeating!) Champions!
You can see the sign up sheet on the ELO rankings spreadsheet.
Again, this year for the first time it is your LIFETIME ELO ranking that determines your seeding.
You MUST meet the following minimum games played requirements. The games must have been COMPLETED in calendar 2024, so a game you played all during 2023 but was ended and winner/loser declared in January 2024 counts.
Balanced mod minimum is SIX (6) games completed 2024
PTV and OOB are 3 games.
Again, seeded by lifetime ELO.Everyone has until 12/31 to sign up. Once brackets are completed, games can be started right away in January. Most of you know the drill, so if I left any gaps and you have questions, check league rules or ask me.
PM to me is preferred way to sign up to avoid gumming up the threads.
Again, you can see who has signed up so far in the new tab in the ELO rankings spreadsheet. -
I always find a spot for everyone. I create additional brackets if needed. If you’re not top 8 ELO of those signed up, you will NOT be able to be crowned champion of that game version, BUT you can still be in an exciting single elimination playoff bracket. Winners of (at least) 2nd brackets are still enshrined in permanent league history records.

@gamerman01 PTV for me. I yearn for to avenge last years championship game debacle.

All of the above for me

Will be another couple days before I can get to our games, sorry for the delay

You are eligible for BM playoffs postseason for the 2024 regular season, starting 1/1
This is the last week for signing up, let me know if you want in, by 12/31 -
I finished entering potential (current) seeding in the 2024 playoffs tab. Seeding currently is your rank among those who are currently eligible. Actual seeding for the playoff will be set after signup period is over.
We all have until 12/31 at end of the night (Like middle of the Pacific time, when it is 2025 for everyone in the world) to sign up.
I am very excited to see that in all 3 versions, almost all of the top players are already signed up. Although league participation is slowly waning as G40 ages, this is going to be a hot year of playoffs, I can assure you.

Man, I lost a lot of interest when I decided that Germany should just leave Normandy French. That stops USA from using the factory and makes defense much easier for the Axis. May be only one of many silly things in G40 but Balanced Mod does fix most of the other ones, like multiple plunders for taking capitals, SBR rules, propaganda bonus in Africa etc. That’s why I came up with the Parisian Rebalance but didn’t seem like anyone was interested.

@gamerman01 i have 4 games in various states of winding down. Is the deadline end of this week (dec 28th), or Dec 31 to finish and qualify?
