@Karl7 @taamvan Hey, glad you could stop by! :-)
And, yes, what a crazy game so far. I didn’t even know ANZAC could land planes on Java the same turn they activate it, and I don’t think simon33 saw the Sea Lion coming. Frankly, I didn’t see the Sea Lion coming until I started planning out my G2 turn.
No, not going to be a long game. Live fast, die young! Learn quickly, then surrender and start a new game. I’m learning a lot. I have a lot to learn. It works out. :-)

Funny, the “friendly dutch” was one of the best pieces of insight I got from reading this site…and long-time players at our last club game on Saturday also debated it… Do you have to activate (liberate) the island at all…cant you just land there without liberating it? Geez…

Allies, including USA, can land planes while they’re still Dutch. So long as their at war of course.

Hi Simon,
It’s always hard to read tone over the Internet, but I feel kind of attacked here by your comments. In just the first two turns, you’ve told me that I’ll regret not attacking the British fleet, you suggested that my G2 Sea Lion attack was too risky, and you’ve implied that I totally missed a pretty basic counter-attack (SZ 92 -> SZ 110).
If you scroll up a bit in the thread, you’ll see that I already mentioned the SZ92 -> SZ110 attack, and that I wished I had moved the German destroyer forward to block the naval part of that attack, instead of moving the DD into combat to protect against a scramble in London. I also pointed out that you could move your Med fleet back to defend London, but that bringing the Med fleet back north would allow me to take Egypt – as I just did.
What’s going on here, anything? Did you not see my comments earlier in the thread? Are my strategies so sub-optimal that you’re not having fun? Maybe there’s no real problem; sometimes I’m overly sensitive. I just thought I’d check in and see where you’re at.
Cheers,
Argo -
Update: Karl7 says you don’t mean any harm and you’re just excited about winning, so I’ll try to just relax and enjoy the game. :-)

@Argothair KILL!
We are all brothers in the League… KILLING BROTHERS!
(I’d say sisters too, but when was Cmd. Jennifer last on here?)

It’s the Karl7 philosophy:
Relax, have fun, and ruthlessly execute your opponents. :)

@Argothair said in Argothair (Axis +0) v. Simon33 (Allies) bm3:
Relax, have fun, and ruthlessly execute your opponents. :)
Reminds me a bit of the slogan of the arms manufacturers in the Star Trek TNG episode The Arsenal of Freedom: “Peace through superior firepower.” :)

Sorry, don’t mean to be rude but I am confused by a couple of moves. I don’t understand what the move to SZ54 was trying to achieve. You were unlucky in that battle so maybe you were expecting to win a counter attack but it was pretty expensive bait. Surely the calculator told you that you couldn’t hold SZ110 but you went ahead and mobilised a transport there.
