Is this game still winnable for me? I mean with the pending collapse of Japan and our new Victory City condition rule

It looks hard, but I don’t mind that we carry on the game. Unlike some other people I’ve encountered I won’t take offense. Not in the slightest.
-
@trulpen You say some people would take offense? Not sure i understand…how so

I’ve played opponents who have explicitly told me to give up and then taking offense when I didn’t comply.
I play competitive chess. There it’s even in the rules that your opponent can play on for how long he wishes and take any amount of time to do so as long as you’re not mated or have run out of time.
I feel that approach applies to this game as well. It’s extremely bad manners to try to force or convince your opponent to give up, and even more so taking offense from not following that recommendation. Doesn’t matter if it’s a lost position or not.
-
@trulpen oh ok, now i understand. Yes, in a game where an opponent is clearly defeated, but they keep playing because their intend is to ACTUALLY be annoying. In those kind of games, for some justifiesd or maybe unjustified reason a player has gone sauer and, of course, when that happens you will not have good rapport. Our game is different in that we’ve had good rapport pretty much from the beginning. And yes, you are clearly the better player, but I was holding out hope that I could just kind of cleverly sneak in a Victory City win. It was fun, and I felt you were having fun too, seeing if the Germans could secure 2 more (I think) Victory Cities. Until last round, I thought I had a fairly good chance at it.
-
Yes, definitely no hard feelings in our game, I think. Perhaps the only instance is when I denied an edit of 2 air from Rome before the first SL.
A successful overtake of London is big and you’ve also skillfully held on to that capital.
-
Grabbing Moscow on this map is also big.
-
So Japan is about to take Egypt and the Allies cant retake Egypt, not this turn anyway. So if Germany had been able to take back Moscow and Stalingrad, wouldn’t I have won the game?
-
@max334 … I meant to say Moscow AND/OR Stalingrad. I’m just wondering, for my own peace of mind, I guess. I’m not very clear on the VC rules
-
I think you would. On the EU-map it requires to control atleast 8 VCs for a full round if both Berlin and Tokyo are under Axis control. If Tokyo has fallen it takes 9 VCs.
-
That is, if the Allies couldn’t take back Egypt immediately.

Scramble to Haikkido and/or z99?
-
Not any wiser, so will assume no scramble if you’re not able to tell atm. With 3 subs attacking it’s likely no air will roll anyway.

@trulpen Will not be home for awhile. Can you print screen
