@axis-dominion I figured out how to sort the overall standings without screwing up the formulas.
So you can gaze at the leaderboard and revel.
Shall I put it in flashing lights? Well, I thought of a way to highlight your feats and achievements.

11 games completed this year? Almost no one has more, and they’re not playing at your level.

Now I’ll stop interrupting you so you can bomb something.

gamerman01

Looks to me like that’s a big win for @peirce !

I wonder how high your rating will get. What do you think about PtV? Just discover it recently, or?

gamerman01

One of the most devastating things that can happen in Axis and Allies is really bad dice on a German airstrike of Allied fleets.

I had it happen to me twice this Spring, and that was Classic where you don’t have as much time invested.

I feel for you, and I am able to offer to play you again whenever this game is over, because my other games have frozen or gone really slow. Maybe game 2 I will get the terrible luck

4 destroyers, hit carrier

That’s bottom 13%…

Yes 2 fighters and American tactical
I’ll check back from time to time because you’ll probably need a casualty choice

Time to start loading veterans into the G/J/I slots?

gamerman01

Waiting for your turn to come up in some game, any game, like I am?

The first experimental open, league, shared G40 game is on-going right now.
11 different players have played in this game, already, with J2 the most recent

The Axis already have some bullet holes in their gas tanks

Time for US2.
Which Axis powerhouse will receive more attention?

gamerman01

R2 played, no blood, just lots of rumbling.

Germany has been crippled at Gibraltar and G1 and G2 bought 4 aircraft total.
Japan has 2 transports at FIC and 3 at Japan, seemingly set for a J3 DOW. The Russians moved all-in to Amur due to early German weakness. It is not going well for the Axis so far.

Who dares play Japan 2?

Thanks for the notice about your timing of play,

I would have done this afternoon but got a nasty migraine
Now that I know I have a week I can go at my leisure, though right now you’re the only one in my queue (shocker) so may be soon anyway. If you could watch for scramble/casualty choice decisions from time to time that would be nice

Missed tech, bad luck at Stalingrad, fantastic luck at Ukraine and Byransk, ebb and flow!!

Been almost 2 months, just checking in, don’t want to end the game if you’re wanting to come back some time, it’s a fun one
