@surfer said in L25 Avner (L+9) vs Surfer (X) BM4:
@Avner Boo. I can’t access the dice server! Stucifer posted earlier that this was a problem. I guess we’ll have to delay.
now it’s ok… it seems
L24 OOB Gamerman (X) v Stucifer (L+51) with Tech!

Battleship gives a good-bye kiss
Japan loses a fighter I guess, I can’t figure out what’s better, not much difference
SO
Japan gets super lucky, clearing with maximum survivors and a couple to possibly plink one destroyer. Maybe.

Aw, I didn’t see that you moved
I’ve been re-creating the 2014 championship game and learning a lot about how to return to OOB
But it was only a 21 bid -
Certainly seems like a good way to learn. Who were the competitors? I didn’t start playing global until a little over a year ago, only had Anniversary and that was plenty for me and my one friend I could convince to play ;)
-
It was a 27 rounder, my 2nd consecutive championship which this time was against the great Ghostglider
I’m a shell of my former self
-
Yes, I’m learning quickly, what to do in OOB
Ghost expertly went for the 5 communism NO’s
-
G40 was in its glory days in 2014-2015, had been out about 2 years and everyone was playing it. AA50 got dropped like a hot pan 😭
-
Ghostglider just won the PtV championship this year too, right?
You’re very modest, I’ve been watching the BM finals review with Crockett36 and I’ve been thoroughly picked apart in this game, well at least in Europe haha
-
Maybe I missed a game or two, I have ghost waiting for the other side.
He actually beat Adam and he’s got the highest ELO in PtVYes the 2014 championship was one of my greatest A&A accomplishments. Ghostglider is awesome at all versions.
You’re right, Germany came right back to me. Muffed Japan, never been suffocated that fast before I don’t think. JDOW I think came up with that Yunnan gambit and it is super nasty.
-
You have noticed I have sacrificed a fair amount of Italy and Japan’s forces and time and attention on Russian assets.
It’s more sound to be strong on both sides, of course, but it looks like this is going to work well, along with some very nice dice assists
Will get this Italy done tonight for sure. Bummed I didn’t get notification of your move
-
Yeah I learned from the greats in the strategy threads and a couple YouTube channels - GeneralHandGrenade & YoungGrasshopper.
Have you played YG’s 3G40 setup with combined UK Pacific & ANZAC? I played my friend Culann a few times using the tripleA servers and set it up to play live with another friend once.
-
Ah, you’re probably right. Just saw that he beat Adam which is quite the accomplishment.
-
I actually haven’t played any Young Grasshopper stuff, I loved his NO’s placards years ago but didn’t actually use them, I don’t have people to play F2F
That hurts a little, I came up with a mod that makes G40 a lot more like AA50 and it included eliminating ANZAC as a separate power, merging it with India.
It would still be an awesome mod if several people were to get interested and we program it into Triple A. Would need a lot of playtesting
