re-adjust your calculations for our battle which is what I was really talking about.

this was the defending:

3 trn
1 AC
1 BB
2 fgts

my attacking forces where: (should of brought the trn for a casualtie but it didnt matter with the horrid dice)

2 SS
1 DD
1 AC
5 fgts
1 bmb

I’m sure I could get a good poll going suggesting this was by far an obvious attack to do vs the british fleet on TURN 2 in the game.
I should of had anywhere 4-7 hits on turn 1.

But turn 1 alone Your forces hit the good luck of 0.sometihng percentage of hits dubbed with my 0.something percentage of bad luck which both teamed up i’m sure is somewhere around 0.000005 % lol

Switch if you would believe the top attack which I thought was a dunk-in…… I even lost a fgt on turn 1 with all my navy destroyed??? and only killed 1 trn…

even being killed for believing is better then the alternative no questions asked. its not even a debate.

@MauserBob:

There will be water if God wills it.

Rob.

I’m with Rob. NO EVOLOTION and GOD ALL THE WAY!!!

you know it only took like 8 to 9 thousand years for man to populate from 2 people to 6+ billion today. So I’m not sure why people talk about millions of years… God has no begining and no ending and it is not for us to completly understand that because many things are little mind cannot just phantom.

Evolution is wrong from the start anyway…There is no way everything on this planet evolved perfectly to work together like it is today with all the different sorts of animals etc…

People should read the King James version of the bible to understand our begining and what is to come. It explains everything we need to know about life in there and how to live life. even explains in very descriptive details the problems Israel face today and why they face them etc…

you just need to look at the sky , oceans  to see the wonderful works of the Lord (god is 3 in 1 for those that don’t know. God the father, god the son and god the holy spirit)

if God gave us the choice to believe in him or not why would he do great miracles in front of your face so you could go oh hey I now believe because I seen this etc…

and actually he did walk among us in the flesh… ( Jesus Chris ) and did marveleous works and miracles in front of everybody but they condemed him and would not believe he was the son of God and they crucified him. (and its cause he died for us there on that cross that whomsoever believeth in him may have eternal life)  “eternal” thats a long time guys  :-D… I don’t plan on spending “eternal” days forever in the other place…

yes I understand people will probably make fun of me for all that and it probably will not change there minds on the matter but thats always been the case and it will not change. (christians will always be made fun of)

it isn’t safe ever to put the UK fleet near range of the Baltic fleet for the first 2-4 turns in the game unless you have a buffer (lets say a russian sub between them)

If the UK fleet is in range of the Baltic fleet. then so is all the land based fgts and bombs frm Germany = doom to the UK navy at MAYBE the loss of there navy which will still be more then acceptable. I am for one probably the only player to have like 99.9999% to win that a navy battle in round 2 of the game vs the UK  and lose horribly bad with just 4fgts and bmb surving and only killing 1 trn. I’m pretty sure that same luck wouldn’t happen again.

was there a bid restrictment in that game Jennifer?

Sounded like a foolish game from the start but you could of stacked I dunno lets say West-Russia with 10 Inf and Ukraine with some extra units for good measure. or some trns for the med. seems like Russia would be toast in no time.

and yes I agree with Jennifer a static bid should be set in place at 6-9 for every game to ensure there isn’t any crazy games for 1, and it keeps everybody on the same playing field.

I love the 2 inf in Lib and 1 IPC torwards Japan as well. the extra Africa units sure help vs a counter-attack from UK on turn1

I wasn’t saying I was doing it :)

just said it could be done.

Me as Germany if I saw your Uk fleet gather in SZ 30, just means I would use my arm to blitz to and back from the surrounding territories and re-boost Egypt or keep my bb/trn in SE and load an extra 2 units to Libya to prepare for some algeria invasions as well.

and if the UK does not use this nice fleet in the first turns… there usefullness is gone from what I see. the japs will guard most of there stuff from the FIC SZ anyway + they can fly some fts to Egypt to help out the germans. I just don’t see a delayed Egypt attack as feesible… You could probably stack around the bottom of africa and hold out as long as you can with that strat… But I think yes the fleet is pretty much dead and uesless anyway. might as well kill all you can and stall the best you can on turn 1.

Darth,

You do know the fleet in SZ 30 is hittable by 4 fgts, 1 BB , 1 AC on turn 1 by Japan right?  And it still leaves you with 1 ss, 1 Trn, 1 DD , 1 bmb to take if not kill 2 out of 3 units at hawaii then retreat the bomb.

and still leaves you with 2 fgts for China.

This doesn’t mean I would hit SZ 30…. Actually I did try it once and it worked out really well. The british fleet was crushed there. Africa ended up falling quicker and harder.

sounds good.

if an odd amount. Somebody would have to get a Bye or free win. something like that.

how are the divisions going to work exactly?

are you just going to play against players in your division? then if so how will the divisions be made up? ( What i’m trying to say is somehow make the divisions fair to give evry1  a chance. Example Baseball, my team the Blue jays can’t outspend the yankees or red-sox and therefore almost next to impossible to make the playoffs.)

Count me in for this league.

This give everybody a chance to be respected, ranked and noticed.

I’m definetly going to try my hardest, I want to be the best…lol

I dont know where I currently stand compared to everybody, But I can give anybody a good run for there money I bet.

seems to me you have the Axis & Allies Revised

Germany should be starting at 40 to confirm that.
because you already had the other 4 countries right, and revised has only been out since 2004 I believe.

most of us online here are playing Axis and Allies Revised in the games forums

I would have to say later in the game yes.

early on isn’t a good idea at all.

That just leaves the russians pretty much alone vs the germans with some small british drops which will be just annoying more then anything.

Its sometihng that just can’t be done till very late in a game the way i’m looking at it. your going to need a huge navy build-up… because the japs have a huge navy + land based fgts and a bmb or two.

well with what I stated Below.

The US is making 40-44 a turn. Japan is making 34-38 a turn and already outnumbered. I don’t need anymore trns… The trns were there because Fleet A was suppose to WIN… but under favorable odds to win instead got crushed…

in this scenario Japan cannot fight ship to ship with the States. Especially If i just build lets say 5 subs a turn… mix some fgts eventually of course.

And Yeah UK is matching Germany unit for unit in the battle on the western-front.

Depends on the game situation again.

for me and Darth’s game for example, were 16 turns into the game. Bit easier giving that length of time obviously to gain naval superiority.

I do not have it as of yet but thats only because I had 8-10 naval pieces in the atlantic and i got unlucky in the battle for the JAP Seazone. (11 fgts, 1 bmb, 3 subs, a BB, some AC’s and Trns only managed to get 4 hits on attack in round 1…  :cry:

But once more Japan currently has 3 BB’s, 3 subs, 1 trn  I currenttly have 10 trns, 3 subs, 1 DD,  2 AC’s left in the pacific.
Japan does not have a choice of letting it happen or not. They can delay the invetitable but not stop it

I agree with you Switch for earlier on in games lets say the first 6-10ish turns yeah its definetly pretty impossible to get naval superiority unless you spend every dime and nickle in the pacific which I’m sure the Axis would be grateful for. Japan would slap some AC"s down for the land based fgts add a sub or two and it starts getting annoying fast

I think I can blame luck in this situation Paint-Brush…

her few transports did more damage then 4 fgts, 1 bmb, 1 DD, 1 AC AND 2 SS…

I don’t call that a 60% percent attack… Even If i had moderate to average dice… I was coming out on top with 3-4 fgts and my bomb still left.

Yeah,

I still like ADS cause it does depic some stuff in real war like Weather, surprise attacks or just plain aweful defense…lol

THis game is starting to chalk up as one side is loaded with dice. :)

I will fight a honorable battle though…

Yeah personally,

i think somebody would have to be screwing up pretty badly or have some major fracks against them if “the best strats” are going to come back from that.

sometimes when its 2 very skilled players… some massive fracks ussually cost you a game…

She means her dice are amazing and she can’t test out anything not that her dice is sucking. any strategy almost works when everything is going right for you  :-D

she just started this thread cause of our game…

My 2 SS, 1 DD, 1 AC , 4 Fgts, 1 Bmb in round 2 vs the British fleet (jsut had 1 round to move and build)…
Her 3 transports did better then my attacking force…I even lost a fgt in round 1 of that battle…

Not to mention in the same game, all the attacks on german territory are being taking WOL… that even includes the 1st ROUND!!.. lol I think On a few battles I had 1 hit… :)

and on any counter-attack I have outnumbered her forces and outgunned and barely win them. :) (german - russian front that is)

even my jap fighter died to her british trn around Egypt…  :cry:

Switch I will agree with you dice are dice… but I mean to be realistic here… I have never seen dice this BAD before on any level.

in a game of risk its more realistic since if you tie you get a kill… I forgot to mention to Jen we were playing by risk dice rules… lol  :evil:

thank you Trihero,

I will never play a LL game as long as I live. You are correct if you want to test strategies on yourself or something.

But for gameplay…definetly more execiting to have random dice… sometimes them dice just make your hands sweat before you click that submit button… trust me.

makes it very execiting.  :-D

Low Luck guarantees hits. depending on how much attack power and defense power is involved on each side, for each 6 its 1 guaranted hit or something…

I have no problem with the ADS on Daak… I only dis-like the dice in SBR in daak… bombers are ussualyl shot at a high rate… and if they arn’t shot down… I Find for all my SBR runs I get like 4 damage, 80% of the time.

I like to complain about the dice at times yes. especially vs Darth, grr to them dice.
I find it will get to boring with Low-Luck…

At least with ADS, every game will have its differences and be random which is a good thing, like Switchs game with Mech for instance… all the figs being Russia… wasn’t for ADS that definetly wouldn’t have been the case.

If you play in real person, the dice are just as bad and we complain just as bad…LOL

I only have 2 things again DAAK and they are:

SBR runs… and attacking Infantry (attacking Infantry barely get 1’s in numbers) yet 2-4 of em in a bunch with 6 fts will get 1’s when they didn’t need to cause they had the power with them.
