@nikola1975 said in L25 PtV Simon33 (Allies) vs Nikola1975 (Axis + 13):
@simon33 Yes, let’s see what we can make out of it. Haven’t played it in a long time; forgot about Manila scramble.
A small chance of keeping the plane alive.
@Argothair starting to smell like bbq for the allies…

Yeah I’ve never been totally sure what the Allied endgame was here…you built this enormous bomber stack and then…bombed targets of opportunity? You laid some very clever traps for me, but it didn’t seem like in the long run you had any way to save Moscow or India, or to take Berlin or Tokyo. Would love to hear more about what you’ve been thinking if you’re comfortable sharing!
@Argothair well you caught me off guard with so many mech and I had difficulties gaining momentum in the Pacific and the med which drained lots of ressources that could have gone elsewhere or hold Moscow a little bit longer. I know I cannot hold Moscow forever, but if you take Moscow and you are left with 5 tanks only well I am able to put pressure with in UK in the Caucasaus area and maybe able to go higher up while putting pressure in Normandy or Norway but since Germany was spending 95% in Europe while putting pressure in the Mid East… well the my plan crumbled… And usually when I can succeed, Germany has no choice to retreat and then keep a strongfoot in Europe with USA and cash all the bonuses for USA.
You are exactly right; I lay out traps and most of times I catch my opponents and destroy or almost destroy all the Japan fleets and gain momentum with Anzac and take precious Island, but in this game I was not able to substain any pressure or not long enough.
@Argothair Or sometimes with my stack of Bombers; the actual goal is just to hold off Japan’s fleet higher up so I can take everything below with Anzac or wait that the Japan player gives me something.

@Argothair I surrender well done and it was fun :relaxed:
Definitely; it was a lot of fun. Thanks for suggesting the game! Would you like to start a new game and switch sides?
@Argothair let me finish some games then we will rematch :relaxed:
Actually I think I am going to try to take a break from the online gaming, so – enjoy your other games, maybe we’ll see each other months from now, but I don’t want to plan on a rematch.
@Argothair No problems :relaxed:
