@MrRoboto With the Russians I like to prevent Germany from getting to the south, so I put moderately expensive blockers and deadzone the territory Germany would like to move into to go South. This only works if Germany doesn’t go 100% land units (fleet G1 for example).

In our game, sacrificing the Russians did indeed delay India, but I think you could have waited a turn and saved the stack with a similar result.

@Adam514 I’ll probably wait until my other game is done, and assuming hte playoff finals haven’t started yet. But definitely up for it.

@Adam514 some very interesting game play. Thought I was for sure in trouble losing my American fleet early in the pacific. Always open for learning more from you happy to play again:)

@666 Good game! And I’ll try!

@shin-ji Thanks! Yeah some of those battles had quite unfortunate results haha.

@nikola1975 Slowly is better than most ;).

Yeah I’d be up for a rematch soon.

@axis-dominion I think I am at my max of 3 games rolling atm. Would love to pick one up with you when one of my games finish though.

sounds great!

@artofwar1947 Thanks for the game!

@adam514 Yeah, thanks for the game. I agree it was the most competitive game I’ve played with you. With the multitude of mistakes I made this game, you didn’t mention losing Australia early, I am wondering why. Perhaps Japan doing a Pearl Harbour J2 was not such a big advantage for them? Until I lost that US fleet near the Solomons I was pretty happy with how I was doing this game.

I think it’s the first time someone offered Pearl Harbour, and so that left me more open than usual on the mainland and you go hard on the mainland with Russia as well. I’d make a factory on J2 if that happens again.

@avner Thanks for the game!

result posted. Would have needed to block Smolensk. Maybe that is what I was thinking. Could have lost scrambled planes if Italy attacked.

Fleet? Possibly I was thinking to build an airbase or otherwise prevent the Italian landing.

@regularkid Well played Joe, it was a pleasure! Axis would have been in a tough spot with worse dice in Russia/Western Germany.

@simon33 Good game!

Sorry didn’t work out as you had expected.

No you’re not. Don’t LIE :) lol.

Your victory has been posted gentlemen! We wish Adam-Dominion the best in the rest of the tournament.

@Sovietishcat Good game!

@666 Good game!

We can start another in a couple of weeks, make sure your map is updated before then. Can’t start now, currently swamped with work.

ok, let me know when you are ready.

hrmm. yep. i think i had thought about that and then forgot. But that was definitely the right play.

Share all your mixed feelings! Japan got nerfed though. It lost a couple of aircraft and infantry, China’s territory layout makes Japan’s air no longer reach everywhere from the coast, and the Russians have a factory in Siberia and can decide to put pressure in the North. Islands are indeed easier to protect with the scramble rules and touching multiple sea zones, but the Japanese fleet can’t be everywhere to defend. By buying fleet instead of bases, and probably a couple transports less (though they were effective in their threat projection), the US would have had a strong enough navy to prevent Japan from splitting its fleet, or even outright deadzoning its ability to move to Carolines.

I think the price to prevent canopens is still quite hefty. At least now you have an option to prevent canopen.

It’s always a grind between high level players if the game is balanced.

Just a tiny Germany buff of 1 more mech, and we might need to buff J1DOW, but more playtesting is required.

Thanks for the feedback!

@oysteilo Good game!

@farmboy oh yah. I know all about overblocking. Adam has helped me to become a more efficient player, for sure. What I love about this game is, even after five years of play, I am always discovering and learning new things.
