@mikawagunichi Sounds good. What does DM mean? Are you doing the G42 tournaments? If so, which strategies have you used in the past if you have done G42 in the past before. I’m thinking about using a variant of the Middle Earth Strategy that works for G42. I’m just worried it won’t work for a 5-7 round game.

I assume you want to scramble the 2 figs from Gibraltar, but might as well ask since it’s the final and all.

That gambit didn’t play out particularly well… Seems I’ll be losing this game as a rock. Nothing unusual.

I guess G will avenge… but your remaining fleet is toast… but still, will be nice to have Italy out of the med early game ;)

Just woke up and got this thought in my head. Would you allow the bs to have taken the route via z93 and be able to retreat there? Played it a bit hastily as usual. Should’ve moved that route in case of a battle screw up. The intention was to strife and hopefully keep the 2 tr safe, but with this awful outcome it’s really pointless. Fully understand if you won’t allow it though.

it was a valid attempt, just some bad dice. naval battles are quite risky like that unfortunately. that’s why what you did isn’t attempted that often.

Yep, true.
