What about it?

And I like Ur fast chess response to it. Definitely tested against a good player. And it will even be more interesting when i stay without the element of surprise in future games. at least the big one(s).

Thanks!

I suspect that you’ll find other intriguing strategies that will mess with my brain.

Italian marine dancing in NW Persia. xD

Might do one NCM edit with US, but it doesn’t affect Italy, namely moving the inf and art to S Australia instead of NSW. Will look at it and can take care of it during the aussie move, if that’s ok.

Nice! I’ll get right to it, but will check here in a little while.

Italy played.

Sneaky Italian tank from Ethiopia took Belgian Congo.

P.S.

Watch out for that sub in sz 91, if it lives until the end of the UK`s turn, UK Pacific will not get 3 IPC from West Indian Ocean NO.

Actually, the only good thing about my position is Russia. Very awkward.

The most defensive nation in the game.

Yes, pretty insane. But your GN is soooo strong along with all that air.

U mean NG ? Well, i ve lost only one fig so far, and bought 2 tacs. xd

I really love that the games with you are so different. It’s refreshing. Completely new strategies applied. I’ll applaud you for that.

So this is one of the two big reasons then, why do U prefer games against me comparing to others.

First would be my speed I suppose, not fast as U (no one is ;) ) but faster than average I suppose.

Amon-Sul

Ok till I wait ur anzac move i ll go try to brainstorm Germany.

Your speed is definitely a factor.

I like playing others as well, it’s just that you have these very unorthodox strategies which you somehow make work. It’s like the revival of some off-beat opening in chess. Looks very fishy at first sight, but then seems to work out in the long run. Like the Black Knight’s Tango (or Mexican) or the King’s Gambit to name two out of many.

Ah, you meant sz81. Suspected you meant that. Will be a tough nut to crack.
