NML 1914 Team Game 8

Elrood

@elrood diced… this is fun

captainwalker

@elrood yeah… that was bad for you. You had close to2:1 odds. Let that be a warning to your team mates to not mess with Russia! It would probably be a good idea for Austria and Germany to fall back a bit.

Elrood

@captainwalker 😄 BC gave me 88% and that danke down to 31% after 2 rounds of combat…
I’m my three local runs I had won after 2 rounds of combat… well…

Was a tight spot for commies already and now is even darker…

Elrood

@elrood danke -> sank

captainwalker

@elrood It definitely gives me a little breathing room… I’ve got too many places to defend right now so that will take some of the pressure off Russia.

captainwalker

@captainwalker danke!

Elrood

@captainwalker Bitte 🥺

Elrood

What I find annoying is: I make a tactical decision to go after Vlad since Irkutsk is too deeply trenched. The repercussions were already real by giving up bratsk and allowing Russia to combine there two armies. Not sure if my decision was right or wrong, but that does not matter anymore due to the abysmal dice… makes thinking on my options for an hour and forecasting possible Russian movement choices a total waste of time. :-(

Private-Panic

@captainwalker Thx for the advice. Austrian troops entraining for Vienna already. They will be redeployed as scientists in the hope of getting a tech before this game is over. 😀

Elrood

@private-panic haha! That might be achievable then

Colt45554

you got fortunate there with best naval tech, instead of merchant marine

Colt45554

whoops i somehow initially thought germans got sub tech. merchant marine not so bad for US/Uk.
@Elrood really rough for you. As communists, i valued bratsk but it can be annoying seeing the Vladivostok guys keep flowing northward

Witt

@colt45554 nothing wrong with MM: means a good British Admiral can chase down nasty Hun Subs and easily sink them .

@Colt45554 French outshot me. And I didn’t get a tech.

After 4 rounds, Entente have 9 tech by the 5 powers that can get tech, while the CP have 2 tech by 4 powers. That’s an average of 2 tech per Entente and 1/2 tech per CP.
