UK revised income
UK gained 4 tech in the last 6 turns and G gained 0, for a total of 12 vs 6. No barrage or any land defense.
The CP concede,
conditional on the USA returning all neutral territories to their rightful owners and destroy all ICs by Earth Day. :blush:
Great game guys, G couldn’t repeat its performance from the prior game.
Who’s up for game 9? I’m in.
Good game. For a while, I truly did think we would lose. I am in for another
Well played Entente. Somehow you triumphed despite our far superior Generalship! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Superior to Leo’s at least!
Please count me in for the next one.
@colt45554 I thought we had , after you kindly lost me my fkeet , when I had my first ever holiday away in 3 1/2 years !
Realky enjoyed it guys . Thanks . It was in the balance for so long. A very different game to usual.
…. But I wasn’t losing to Adam.
@colt45554 We had some good battles, BUT made no ground… The setting does not really promote aggressive play… you fight hard over deeply entrenched 1 or 2 PU territories, and meanwhile Entente gets richer each turn.
may be it is just me, but I see no other path than Paris for Centrals to balance they playfield. albeit after Paris game is usually over anyways…
G40 and WaW are kind of forcing a strategy onto Axis as well, but NML seems really one tracked in comparison… hmm :-/
I’ll play again
@elrood If G can get industry and barrage tech early and concentrate on Paris, it has a good chance, depending on whether Entente also makes an all out defense of Paris.
Some balance is helpful for G, not ignoring its other fronts, but not overspending on them.
Russia is also critical, as its allies can’t rescue it. So an early collapse gives CP enough income to close the income gap, even if Paris holds.
@fmerwinrommel
Russia is too easily defended with trenches and Rekruts.
Paris can only fall if Germany is somewhat lucky with tech and early battles.
hence:
I believe a buff for Centrals is necessary… e.g. that TĂ¼rk buff that we had in play before…
1914 has a mechanism to prevent play from going on endlessly. USA’s involvement starts slowly, but can gain income from many neutrals, which don’t need to be defended. So eventually, as long as the Entente is holding its own, USA can overwhelm a massive land defense by G and A.
Sort of like the game RISK, which could go on forever, with everyone ganging up on the current strong power, and back and forth. So RISK uses cards to earn free armies, and after a set of cards are redeemed for armies, the next set earns progressively more armies, until its such a huge amount that one power just overwhelms the others.
