I only just got around to reviewing the USA attack on SZ6. You sacrificed planes so you could increase the probability of a hit on the DD Interesting move, probably a good one because you’ve denied Japan transports that would have taken income.

@axis-dominion That’s not Larry. Larry’s account is @Larry-Harris-0 but he never validated his email address. I’m not sure if he’s using that email address anymore anyway.

@everyone Sorry for the delays in my turns. Life has been super busy and I will probably need about a week before I can get my turns done and out. Apologise to those I am in games with.
-
All good my friend. Life happens.

Waiting for your turn to come up in some game, any game, like I am?
The first experimental open, league, shared G40 game is on-going right now.
11 different players have played in this game, already, with J2 the most recentThe Axis already have some bullet holes in their gas tanks
Time for US2.
Which Axis powerhouse will receive more attention? -
Much appreciation for everyones patience in our games, I am back now and should be able to post regularly. Just had to make sure I graduated highschool first, lol.
-
Congrats! So glad you are here!

@crockett36 I’m back too. Been awol for 3 weeks!

Hi hope everyone is well, Can someone give me a quick reminder on where chinese units are allowed to move in G40 OOB? Can they move into Burma or not is ideally what im asking, or also could they send their fighter to attack burma alone? Thank you to whoever answers.
-
Any Chinese unit can freely defend or attack Burma or Hong Kong.
China can even take control of these two territories if India is controlled by the Axis
-
@gamerman01 @Jacob16 worth noting to that Chinese units (including the fighter) can move into Burma and Hong Kong before the UK is at war with Japan.

I can’t play in any of my games, so I turn to… statistics.
I figured out some of Roboto’s data and charts.In the PTV, OOB, BM pinned discussion threads I shared statistics on Axis v Allies win % along with bids, especially the recent data over the past 18 months. Are you bidding enough?
-
The pie chart of how many games of each version are played is also updated, to show the past 18 months rather than all-time. What are league players playing these days? Go to the statistics tab.
-
expected tuv for G was around -32 and instead he scores 138…

@axis-dominion Your play was superb. Sorry to have had the dice decide the match (that’s why I offered to go LL for the 1-2 combo for those battles - I just wanted to wipe out your ground, since Germany could replenish quickly, and didn’t want it to end the game). Happy to have a rematch some other time. Cheers.
-
Yeah, sucks and extremely frustrating when it happens. But yourself as one of the top ELO players on these boards, the “rest of us regular folks” have to take extra risk in order to win.
-
@axis-dominion Out of curiosity, would you not have done that attack, in my shoes? I had tons of ground units right there to replace German losses, and in any LL scenario, all Russian/US ground units are wiped out, allowing some German air to retreat, taking 100% of the pressure off of Germany. Even if you divert from max D and lose US planes (costly), Russia would still only be left with ~10 tanks next to two stacks of 10+ inf/arty in Austria and Slovakia-Hungary, with another 17 units placed in Germany/W.Germ that turn.
Germany was under pressure, and this removed it completely, with the sole risk being the loss of ground units on Germany’s doorstep (where it had another 40 at the end of this turn, plus whatever air retreated from Yugoslavia). No risk of losing the capital, and Russia’s nearest inf stack was way back in Russia.
I had captured and held London and Sydney several turns prior, and sacked India last turn, and was ahead with TUV, so removing the threat to Germany (at a risk that Germany could easily afford) was the smart play, in my view. It was why I offered to run the battles on LL beforehand - so that dice wouldn’t mess up the game.
It sucks that a brutal dicing ended our game. But wouldn’t you have taken that calculated risk, as Germany?
