@Texas:

For the life of me, I can’t figure why folks have figured out how to play the allies (by not playing aggressive), but not the CPs when you have to use that exact same strategy with them.

Are you suggesting the Central Powers not to be as agressive from the start and advance slowly through all the fronts?
I am not mocking you, this could work.
However the central powers have less income but more men. Now the income difference between the two you think would become closer as the Centrals take territory however this is why the Central powers have such problems. The Allies have soooo many areas to basically get free ipcs that if Germany knocks out Russia turn 4 let’s say RR rules. The allies still have more income and have troops at the western front already pushing/ready to push.

Now I am no expert as I already decided 2nd edition for me. But from what I’ve read and what I have thought of and done mini scenarios for this game. I can’t see LL (low luck rules) allowing the CP’s to win.

Also as Italy is already an allie…. And the Allies dominate the Med sea… The territory of Marseilles does not need to be manned.

@knp7765:

When we played, Britain did kind of limit it’s spending in India, but not because of any type of rule. That was just Britain’s strategy. I think they might have built 1 transport ship there, no warships. As for other units, it was usually 3-6 infantry and 1 or 2 artillery per turn. No tanks or planes.

Tavenier mentioned that some people were spending most of UK’s money in India. Wouldn’t that make things hard on France?

Well supposedly the ‘best’ way or most ‘likely’ way the Centrals can win is take out Russia Early. If Britian takes the Ottomans out of the picture then it can open a new front for Germany/Austria in Russia when the Rev happens or they can just transport a lot.

Now France can hold its own and with the U.S. Help can be beating the Germans. The Italians will be taking a beating but when the Ottomans are out of the picture Great Britian can help fight Germany while U.S.A. Saves Italy.  Great Britian with its income plus ottomans income makes it rich and none of its territory is really ever in danger.

France is strong because of what territory it can take.

Yolo say nono
Isolate your self
And just roll solo
Becarefolo
You oughta look out
Also stands for yolo…

I was listening to the song.

And to get technical YoL0 is grammatical incorrect.
It should be You Live Only Once making it YLOO

Pizza is good frozen, freshly made, or greays as hell

Gameplay would be sooooooooo much better if they made Prussia and Poland have its actual boundaries
Even if it still only touches poland for some reason. Germany shouldn’t change in shape cuz of it.

I am liking this a lot. Man Russia would get Germany, build a little then keep going maybe :) Communism everywherreeee

yolo

You could also point out that people are still voting

Vote early, vote often.

Skill level matters.

When I play games against my friends or family I always win. Not because of rolls or because I’m really good. Just because I know more about strategy.

Ex. I buy 11 infantry and 1 tank with 40 ipcs as russia to defend with a little bit of offense. Then my opponent is Germany and he has 40 ipcs and just buys 8 tanks.
They then attack me and lose and blame the dice…

This isn’t for any specific board however shows you how some people don’t realize infantry are the best defense and great cannon fodder. I try to teach my friends that if they bought more infantry to protect other expensive units they may win games.

@Kreuzfeld:

I recently got hooked on this movie series called “star wars”. The first three where fantastic with light sabres modern cgi effects and great writing. The I get to the 4th movie, and it seems like the budget have taken a turn for the worse. No fancy cgi, instead they have started using men and children inside suits. I could have forgiven that, but they seem to have decided to remove the funniest character of the franchise, which I previously believed was the only reason this series was allowed to continue. His name is Jar Jar Binks, and his HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILARIOUS, really most awesome character on the silver screen since the god father.  For some reason it seems that the director have continued making the series for a full 6 movies, and a 7th one is in the making. I can only hope he will save this series which really have steadily become worse since star wars 1.

Have anyone of you seen these movies? Lets make an internet campaign to save this franchise.

Downright trolling from here. One of my fav series

I was tired when I put the Stars up there haha I got no idea why I put the. Haha.

I don’t think Toronto will win the play offs I think they will lose in 5 games against Boston.  I just think that if any team with no chance will win it is Toronto out of all the teams. Did you not see Montreals play last night against Ottowa?

10 IPC to low.

A Real easy way to make an equall playing field is make it the equivalent of the Ottoman Income.

I.E. If the Ottomans have an income of 12 Britian gets only 12 to spend in India. If the Ottomans have 50 then Britian can spend up to 50

The Idea is to win the game. You can’t win a game with early sea lion. Also in G40 an early sealion which was in Germany’s favour did not mean a win against the Allies

+1 like

I honestly don’t see a viable early sealion

Germany builds transports and a supporting navy. Great Britian builds a few inf in London and naval build. France doesn’t feel threatened and Russia is relaxing.

Sea Lion wasn’t even considered possible in ww1. The Germans figured if they got Paris the war was over literally. I don’t see it being a viable strategy. Though late game I could see it happening instead of going for Paris. It’d shock the allies I Bet

We had to postpone. However next weeks Friday we will be playing. I have thought about it and have decided that I won’t get an Indian Ic. I also need to know what generally is an efficient way to protect transports from German bombers and/or fighters. As the transports can not go undefended however that means naval purchases such as a battleship or aircraft carriers with planes?

Also if Germany makes subs what is the best way to defend against this. As I usually have destroyers defending my transports but now there are no destroyers.  So how does a sub work differently in this one?

Guys listen the Islanders, Canadians, the  Stars, and Washington are not going to win. Washington not enouGh talent, and Canadians have been doing poorly lately.

I feel that one of the only upsets is going to be Toronto winning the cup. Just with all the luck Toronto has had.

I just made frozen pizza. First time this month? Fast meal tastes ok.

No way Washington is going to win. Ovechkin I agree is a rly rly rly good player and that it is possible that he is in the top 10 players of right now. But one player doesn’t make a team. Now Pittsburgh upgraded its roster and already has two first lines.

Vancouver has a chance to win if they play Luongo!!!

@Gargantua:

for every 50 male A&A players, expect 1 female.

For every 1000 aa.orgers expect 1 female.

Almost right except I’d up it to 100/1 for A&A players.
I can’t convince a single female to play nor can my friends.

Then let’s add the house rule that infantry for Germany roll twice to represent their extensive training. Then Canadians from the start get to roll three times because everybody knows we are awesome eh ;)

I have heard that Justin Bieber gives you Beaver Fever so watch out.
