Gamerman01 v TheGoodCaptain (+8) Loser bracket final


  • When I was 14 and looking through a hobby shop with my Dad, the only thing I remember is looking at the back of the Classic box, with the infantry and fighter on India.
    Game was $20, pretty expensive.
    Dad wouldn’t buy it for me, especially because of his army experience.

    I would have been delirious if I knew that some day in the future, I would have an A&A experience like this. Thanks for teaching me the rules that I missed as a teenager. It’s a thrill to play against very high caliber players in distant lands 😎👌🔥

    J8 NCM edit.tsvg forgot to shuck two guys off India to Italian East Africa. Fixed in this file.


  • I need to ask you if you meant to move that fleet to Phi or if it was perhaps a misclick and you meant to go FIC.


  • OK… it’s probably what you meant because it covers Wake and projects SEward at the same time, but with the tight spaces and quirkiness of TripleA I don’t want to work on my turn if it’s a misclick

    It’s intentional. You are a kickass dude. If you’re ever in CA, I will drop what I’m doing to have a game with you. More of this in tournaments please.


  • <sigh> in my dreams, California dreaming

    I’m exhausted, so looked over the move but not playing tonight.
    2 1/2 hour insurance appointment today - we tackled health and house both, and I didn’t like what I heard/saw
