Hello everyone, I’m new to the community. I’m located in the greater Seattle, WA, USA area. I’m currently playing Axis and Allies online. I was just gifted the 1942 2nd edition board game in Dec of 2022, but haven’t gotten much use out of it because I only know one person that plays and it’s an all day event.
I’ve been actively making a few turns a day for the last month or two online. Before that I played a few times as a teenager with my dad. The stages of learning has been obviously tiered. In short I’ve learned what works against the computer, doesn’t work against people. Playing the computer just teaches you bad habit. Then I learned what works against bronze players doesn’t work against silver players. This week I got a custom game against a platinum player and realized what works in silver doesn’t work in the more advanced play. I’m excited that I got a game against a platinum player because I’ve been punished for mistakes that I previously didn’t know I was making. I learned more in one losing platinum game then I think I have in all other games combined.
If anyone know of some users who post their games on youtube with detailed commentary about their thoughts and strategy I’d love to know which channels. I just found TTG who I’ve liked because he talks through a lot of his thought process.
Looking forward to playing against you all and chatting with you on the forums.
