Not having read all of the posts nor do i want to get too into your “spat”, i think that it was not unreasonable to go into KAR under these circumstances. It seems gutsy at the outset, but i think that when all is said and done, it’s not that bad a play. The problem is that IFF the UK liberates it right away, then RU can drop most of its inf on R2 there. That in addition to US planes would make it kind of dicey.

The problem is…in order to liberate it they cannot go to Africa and they might not be able to take Norway…that leaves Germany with Ukr, Cau, Nor, a lot of Africa…even if Kar is liberated…and if I were Japan I would go all out against the Russians, killing everything in Yakut…even if it could cost me a fighter, or China…Russia would quickly lose IPC’s and wouldn’t be able to defend Novo because they would be forced to make all inf builds…

@General:

I almost never play the same way twice. People have criticized me in the past and said I lost games due to my not using common tactics. Of course this is true, but a game isn’t very fun if you always play the same… And that’s all this is… A game. :D

But for some people you have to win to have fun… :D

Panda, after my game with DM, would you like to play a game….I would play with 22-25(whatever I need to learn about) bid…I wouldn’t mind to get some tips and such…it would be an informal game, I don’t know if you want moves to be taken back or whatnot…we could figure that out later…but I’m just letting you know I’m up for a game…

DM- what I was trying to say was this:

He claims you should’ve done more poorly on dice rolls with his original placement…but when he puts more inf there, he said you would’ve done the same damage…doesn’t make sense

@theSexualHarrassmentPanda:

That’s total bull sh** b/c if that is true then there is no way you should’ve done the attack you did do, as you should’ve gotten much worse than you did.[…] The fact is if we assume the same kind of dice you had which was the only way one can justify the attack you made you still would’ve been able to justify an attack against 15inf arm ftr. You’re using a circular argument now to defend the undefendable, if this weren’t true you’d be willing to play from a reroll which we both know you aren’t going to do as you can’t do that well again.

6inf 5arm 4ftrs bmb v 15inf arm ftr

round 2: 5arm 4ftrs bmb v 8inf arm ftr

round 3: 2arm 4ftrs bmb v 3inf arm ftr

round 4: arm 3ftrs bmb v ftr Taken w/ arm 2ftrs bmb

Note this was how the battle you did fight should’ve turned out.

Whoa, Whoa, WHOA, Panda….that is messed up…you say that he should’ve done worse than he actually did…but when you put MORE DEFENDING UNITS into the picture, he does just as well as what actually happened??? That makes NO sense…you are contradicting yourself…

@DarthMaximus:

I was totally expecting a full strafe on Ukr with retreat to Kar

What’s better with a no PE bid…STRONG ATTACK AND TAKE of Ukr…or STRONG STRAFE of Ukr…or a LIGHT/MEDIUM STRAFE/TAKE of Ukr???

@theSexualHarrassmentPanda:

What you did is absolutely no different than what MrG and GWS did in recent games, and which you were supposedly against.

Whoa, don’t make it look like me and GWS think the same…we don’t…take a look at his game vs. CC…how many BB’s did he buy with Japan…5? 6? 7?..

@theSexualHarrassmentPanda:

I think what I’m having a real problem with is Panda wanting to play a PA game (which is fine) and gearing up to defend it, but not looking at the consequences of his defenses. Thus he could lightly defend Kar. Bait my a$$. He made a mistake, period. He’s lucky I really didn’t try to bury him.

Yeah it is bait. I don’t mind letting the Germans try this b/c it doesn’t help them in the long run. With the reasoning you’ve given there should be no way anyone could ever beat a PE bid, but it happens. And what’s more I don’t think BW would agree PE bids are unbeatable.

But the thing is, Panda…you didn’t set up your defense for a PE bid…if it were a true PE bid…you would’ve pulled out of Kar(I’m assuming)…in this game you didn’t…so he got the benefits of a PE bid without needing extra troops…

1 inf on Man is a wasted bid….I would attack Man if only one inf was put there…

@theSexualHarrassmentPanda:

I would’ve done it just to mess up SHP’s game plan…

But it doesn’t do that really.

But it makes you think outside of the box, and I’d like to see how superior your tactics are when the objectives of all the allies are changed…

I would’ve done it just to mess up SHP’s game plan… :D

@cystic:

was this more than you wanted to know?

No, it’s actually quite interesting…I plan to go into medicine…so I’m getting a head start :D

@cystic:

if you like, i could tell you why drinking alcohol before you go to bed is counterproductive (this is the kind of thing i tell my patients, anyway). 8)

please do…i don’t know what you mean by “counterproductive”

my friend is obsessed with whiskey…it’s disgusting in my opinion…

@Lizardbaby:

I never turned it off before. Plus I have comepletly lost my mind. I plan to drink heavily tonight. Stress at work has beat me down.

Have fun feeling like Sh*t the next day…smoking doesn’t do that to you…not that I would know… :o

@Lizardbaby:

“but I’m not going to get into my personal life…”
How can we have a club if we don’t know anything about you? Are you sure your not a Conservative just trying to find out our secret plans? I been reading allot about the department of homeland security doing stuff like that. Are you really a narc!?

Lizard…you forgot to hit the sarcasm button…

I consider myself to be a moderate…but I’m not going to get into my personal life…

@Jennifer:

Still want the .50 cal browning though. Betcha it would keep the cops up at night knowin the next house they kick the door down in could have one of those babies sitting on a tripod just inside!

better yet…Set up a sandbag-bunker on your front lawn…draw a wide yellow line…and put up a sign saying “Enter at own risk”…you could sit in that bunker, in a lawn chair…sippin lemonade all day…wait…what the hell am I talking about??? Jen, your personality is rubbing off on me :o

@Jennifer:

On a personal note: I prefer a dog to a gun. A good german shepard will tear the ever living crap out of an intruder and won’t accidentally hit a family member comming home late. Besides, you can play with a doggie, playing with a gun is just irresponsible.

Ya, but when your well trained, much loved dog dies by getting shot by the same intruder….you will rethink your choice…

@Jennifer:

What I call for is mandatory training on weapons to teach people to respect them and understand them.

You don’t need to train people to use the weapons though….just educate them about the effects of weapons…
