19L Mursilis (Axis) vs Sovietischcat (Allies) BM3, no tech, no bid and regular dice.

@peirce

Well, I guess this is it. Two seazones from sz47 to 31, not three :(

The only question is - did I do that subconsciously intentionally or from sheer stupidity?

Let me think a bit about it, whether it has some sense to play some more.

@max334

It was great game, and I still like it. Some very unusual things happened, like you said, but at one moment it broke for Axis.

My opinion is that at some time you lost a clear focus. Axis must take enough cities to win the game, while at some moments I had a feeling that you were focused more on damaging the Allies? For example, taking some territories despite knowing you are not able to hold them, or losing transports for a low profit.

I am not saying I am right, I have seen the game where this kind of approach somehow work, but I am not able to repeat them. And I think it might work better for Allies, as the time usually works for them. As it has proven in this game.

What do you think?
