Started the Yunan battle with 55% chance to win. Survived all the AA fire, had a mediocre first round and then you rocked my army with 21 out of 53 infantry hits.
Good Game, concede.
I just cant seem to win on the forum games, I dont do a lot of OOB but just cant win. I realize I should not have taken the 12 soviet footsoldier bait in Amur but I did get Moscow on turn 8 but could not capitalize with a weak japan.
thanks for playing.
Thanks for the game.
I didn’t even notice that the Yunnan stack was in any danger.
I had a big bid which I spent all in Europe yet you still didn’t go J1. I think that was a big mistake. I’ve developed my J1 moves after playing online a bit and they go like this:
This will give 40-41 income so you can buy 3 mechs J2 for Kiangsu, an IC and a CV.
Anyway, I think that is what you should have done. Another problem you had was not taking all the money islands.
You did surprise me with taking Moscow so early, I wasn’t prepared for that. Your problem was my middle east was so strong that you couldn’t take it out. I don’t think there was anything you could have done about that though, other than not giving such a big bid in the first place.
