    • RE: Allied Playbook - G40 Collection of Essays - Compiled by jacobgeo24 Nov 18-19 2023

      I couldn’t agree more.

      KGF means that India and ANZAC are doing nothing but desperately defending, making no progress whatsoever.

      KGF means a conquered China, India producing 1-2 inf per turn and anzac trading one of the islands per turn, back and forth.

      This can’t go on forever, eventually Japan WILL get Calcutta and then has 3 options, all viable and big threats.

      A) Go the land route to Cairo, securing the Middle east on the way and reinforcing with factories there.
      B) Using transports from India to threaten the whole coast of Africa within 2 rounds, especially the poorly defended South Africa. Even if the Allies DO produce there to defend, these units are FAR away from everything important.
      C) Shift the focus to Sydney. My least favourite option, since actually conquering Sydney can be very difficult and is also not helping Germany while building up transports and fleet.

      Sure, with KGF Italy is probably very small or nonexistent (being convoyed to <5 PU income) and Germany might struggle to hold the west coast, Maybe Russia can even hold Moscow (although in that case probably not threatening an attack and only producing a handful of infantry each round).
      But the Axis often can hold Rome and Berlin long enough for Japan to either help them substantially or getting Hawaii / Sydney.

    • RE: Am I winning or Losing: data analysis of high-level BM4 games

      @SuperbattleshipYamato said in Am I winning or Losing: data analysis of high-level BM4 games:

      If you don’t mind me asking, is there a list with all elo ratings of every players known?

      I created that ELO list about 2 months ago.
      It counts every League game (@gamerman01 and @farmboy are dissecting the forum for all games retroactively) done on this forum.

      It will officially be introduced Jan 1st 2024.

      @Arthur-Bomber-Harris
      Wow that amount is way lower than I expected. I didn’t think 20 IPC Lead for the Allies was enough by turn 10 (and some games are already over before turn 10).

      The design takes some getting used to, to be honest. I do not yet feel so at home here as I did with the old design - which is not surprising.
      I’m pretty sure in 2-3 weeks this will feel very natural too.

      I do like the additional features! The notifications are great, the chat is a lot better and searching through the forums is a lot faster too. I like it

      Thanks for the game and no worries - I can totally relate to your situation. I am awaiting my second daughter in January and know how time consuming work and family is ;-)

      BTW, your position wasn’t good now but I don’t think hope was lost completely. You’re still holding Egypt, Moscow, Gibraltar AND India, and we are already at turn 19. This is quite an achievement and even though I made more money than you for quite some time I wasn’t able to crack these important nuts.

      The way I threw away my Pacific fleet is hurting me so much and I don’t think I can avoid losing. But I’m holding on considerably well, especially in Europe.

      When you ask for OOL, you should always roll the first round, so that your opponent can see how many hits you scored.

      In this case, you killed everyting in one round.

    • L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis)

      I forced gamerman into a +10.
      I wonder if I could have brought him down even lower than that…

      He chose the same I would have: sub in the Med, art in Sudan.

      Good luck and have fun, sir!
