Edit: What-if UK did not go for aggressive Medi fgt buy in UK1, and instead focus on sea mine in sz 12 and 15, and buy inf art atg at ratio of 4:2:1 and occasional tnk bmb for Cairo.

Enno vs Makalakalane

@Enno you assumed right. But Russia wont survive this. You bombers are hitting insanely high. 2 Bombers hitting 14 first time and now 20 with 4 Bombers. It’s an average of 5 the first time and 4,5 the second time, without adding the 2 extra. I don’t think I will hold Korea in anyway, so this game is pretty much over. I will give it 1 or 2 rounds more, but I really need a break from this.

@Makalakalane It can be an all-consuming game indeed! Better try to limit # of games or time (very hard…)
-
@Enno alright, I’m out. gg
-
@Makalakalane Thanks for the game! To be fair, I haven’t lost a single game with the Axis yet, and think a bid of 30 is still too low.
-
@Enno what bid do you think is fair? Maybe I just need to clear my head a little.
By the way - I think I broke the rules… I found out that it’s not a legal move to blitz through pro-allies/axis countries during non-combat. I’ve been placing a Mech in West India in quite a few games to take both the pro-allies countries west of there in the first turn. That’s apparently not legal. -
@Makalakalane Not sure yet what the appropriate bid is. So far I’ve always used less than 30, but I’ve always played Axis and not yet lost. I suspect it is in the 40-60 range.
-
@Enno well, we could try one with 40? I don’t have a lot of victories in the bag, but it’s always gone pretty well with a high bid with Allies. I’m used to a bid of 16, but lately it’s been going really poorly in most games.
-
@Makalakalane For the coming week I better not start a new game… But feel free to get this started next week Friday!
