Just got A&A have no one to play with

I usually start shipping troops and a small fleet to africa to threaten the underbelly of Europe, building up enough forces over several turns to eventually launch a strike or reinforce WEU.  At the same time I am slowly building a navy in the Pacific to make sure Japan doesnt go unchecked, and maybe if japan has their navy out of the way I will build a transport and take borneo, just to be an annoyance.

@ncscswitch:

Baiting is best done AFTER you have determined that your opponent might be subject to it.  The most common way of determining that is by a moderately risky attack by your opponent in the first 1-2 moves of the game.  If they roll for moderate odds battles (70% or less) early on, then future baiting may pay off.

Or if they try for a Russian Triple on Russia 1. :P

But honestly, baiting only pays off when you are winning.  Otherwise, baiting will always help your opponent.

:-D
You gotta love LL!  :wink:

I don’t love LL . . .

No love.  (oo a tennis pun . . .)  :lol:

Yes the episode called “the label maker” season 6… i think.

jerry’s apartment became neutral Switzerland because Newman could not be trusted. I wish the whole episode was about that game

My second favorite episode after The Soup Nazi.

Interesting results this far:

There’s a sizable ‘rookie’ class (3 or less years of experience), 19 poll participants

and a group of grizzled veterans (over 15 years of experience), 13 poll participants

I am glad to see the new comers.  I guess Revised was a good thing.

@Nix:

Goggle for TripleA, it has a very weak AI, but better then Hasbros…  (doesn´t say much of course…)

TripleA’s AI is almost static for the first 3 rounds.  Go with insane German purchases for the first two rounds and you’ll own Moscow because it doesn’t know to stack Moscow with infantry.
