DoMan (Entente) v TGC (Central Powers) 1914, no bid with Russian Revolution


  • @the_good_captain Sorry I was out for the last few hours but you more or less pieced together what I was thinking of doing (Forcing contested territories by any means necessary, up to and including sacrificing the air force).

    I’m not sure if entering Moscow itself was a “noob mistake” as it’s a fairly logical trade. I lose the IPCs/production for about 2 turns but the German stack dies immediately with the AH stack following in relatively short order. You would have gotten the free money from taking Moscow and been able to use that to seriously push back on the France/Italy/USA line so the game would have probably turned into either you trying to stabilize the Russian front and making a second attempt at beating Russia Vs. a race of seeing if you can take down Italy before the Russians regroup and kill/cripple AH.

    Let’s try flipping sides. It it just as simple as creating the thread then firing up a PBEM game?

    I don’t have any delusions of grandeur to expect that I’ll be able to beat you with Central Powers with no bids/no LHTR, but I’ll show you how I usually approach playing them to see if it gives you any ideas/data to work with. Probably will post AH1 in the morning or in a couple of hours.


  • @domanmacgee well written. Well, it IS a noob mistake if you screaming, “wait, what?!” in your head ;) lol. But that’s how you learn (esp with this RR rule - man o man) I will keep what you just said in the above in mind and actually PLAN that outcome in next time, heh. Still, outside of that, I learned quite a bit in this game. That RR rule is confusing the H out of me though. I’m having difficulty understanding how best to utilize it…or if its even interesting as regards outcomes for one side or the other. Setting up is kinda weird.

    since play by forum is busted, just play by email through TripleA - self explanatory after that

    yes a cease fire for the rest of the day is in order - hope you had a good weekend.
