Now that’s unfortunate, and thank you for the kind offer. If you agree, Germany would produce three more inf and save one IPC.

@myygames Thank you - I agree with the casualties. No interceptors in Moscow, this time.

A lot of 1s, this turn LOL

TripleA v2.7.14934
AA Classic, bid of 7 for the Axis, tech allowed for starting round 4, Russia cannot attack on round 1, neutrals cannot be taken, naval production is also allowed in hostile sea zones, Axis win if industrial production is 84 or above for an entire round after having reached 84 IPCs, the total number of factories on the board is limited to the number of factories in the original board game, there can only be as many different fleets as related pieces are in the board game. E.g., the US could have 24 bombers, but they must be distributed over three territories max.

@oysteilo I edited a forgotten non-combat move: Russian sub from SZ111 to SZ125

@martin I edited a forgotten non-combat move of 4 mechs from Germany to Eastern Poland. I will go to bed, now - good night!

L21 Martin (Axis) vs Bolasgod (Allies +20) OOB 2nd Ed low luck:

Martin wins, as 17 for days no move done by boladgod, despite reminders.

If and when he appears again, we can happily continue the match.

@oysteilo it is easier to find time to play during office hours while working from home ;-)

@oysteilo that’s fine. Tomorrow will be my one day in the office, this week, so I will be able to respond tomorrow evening then.

@flyingbadger well, I also edited some forgotten non-combat movements. In any real board game situation, this would be accepted, as these moves are obvioius and natural. The same counts for this transport. You even flew a tactical bomber there and undid that move, without having that tactical bomber doing anything else. I insist on removing this transport :-) You learned from this experience anyway. And it is not fun taking New Zealand thanks to a forgotten move.

@flyingbadger said in L21 Martin (Axis) - FlyingBadger (Allies + 30) OOB 2nd ed -low luck:

s, every decision feels critical, with moves and counter moves. I hope my future games of A&A are as much fun.

Sorry, I missed your message and only saw it, now. Yes indeed, the match is epic and great fun! :-) It is nothing like a saw before…

No matter how this will end - we should have a re-match in the near future! :+1: :flushed:

@oysteilo thank you for advising up front. Have a good weekend!

@oysteilo my odds are quite bad, but I will still keep trying for a bit :-)

@flyingbadger I also have so much to learn :-) I learned about the “sneaky Karl” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pkj_9K3lfQk
