You may have a tricky time in the Med without the cruiser and no bid subs, but maybe you just go to 92 normally or something - I’ll find out!
I am happy I bid two inf for egypt, but med will be a chhalenge, like you say, without the bid. We will see what i do. Coming up tomorrow. The map is weird
but the tranny in 106 is of course nice, its a hassle to deal with the 106 axis subs, so thats good news, but gibraltar will be dificult here
no tech develpemnt for russia. They need every single inf they can field.
It is possible to make movement errors on this map with the unusual border drawings…

How do I have 6 tanks left??? That’s actually only about 4-5 mech and artillery that I lost above average, it feels like it was even worse than that.
I think thats about right, you were supposed to be +28 and ended up +4. so 24 is about 4 mech and 2 art more than the average 7 inf + 1 art. My fighter missed the last 3 rounds of the battle too, so it could have been much worse… I am not expecting that to bring much joy to you though
definately it should be possible to filter for active players. The current format is close to useless for browsing relative strength of active players
my first impression is, I dont encourage J1… but maybe i do. i havent seen a J1 Hawaii move in a decade or so, so I need some time to consider. Are you Magnus Carlsen??? Trying to outplay me from day one 1 by doing odd moves???
sorry for the delay, its comimg up in a min or two
I have it more or less sorted out. But wont move right now, more like saturday morning my time
Overall that went well, but looks like I better stay away from Hunnan. 3 out of 3 hits on defence!
It would be nice, if your cruiser didnt hit and my BB stayed undamaged, It will be interesting to see if you go for the about 50:50 battle after I move my Anzac cruiser…
The med is a pain as you can see and pointed out. You have the middle east if you choose too. (for now)
I am happy your BB in 110 missed it makes life easier of gibraltar…
(I think it is important to keep that japanese cruiser of malaya alive after a J1 to avoid the FIC counter). It slows Japan down a bit
And of course there is also sea lion to worry about… :(
Pretty lame on tech here, but it will change… i need every unit i can field, not just one place, but everywhere
I am sad that the game only went on for 3 rounds.
Yes, Taranto was bad for you, no doubt. I have done the same thing as you saving the carrier and landing the planes there. I think you shouldnt do that. Even in this situation Germany is only supposed to lose two or three planes i they bring in everything. Is it worth it? I dont think so. But Taranto itself is not a bad move
I am curious about your three mistakes in the pacific? Can you share? Well, moving the fleet next to Japan require big balls I think as you are completely out of position for the money islands. I think you planned on landing in Korea. Maybe that move is a mistake? What are the other two?
Again, I am sorry the game is so over so fast. But as always you are a gentleman to play against
@AndrewAAGamer said in OOB playoff oysteilo (axis) vs. AndrewAAGamer (allies +59):
- Should have bought 2 mech for India UK1 to assist in reinforcing Yunnan on UK2.
- Should have stayed in Yunnan on C2 using all the Russians to assist in defense. As it was I wanted the Russians to go to Iraq which was a blunder.
- Since I was gong for Korea I should have brought the 3 ANZAC fighters to Hawaii to land on Korea.
Fair ponts. Personally i think the Yunnan bid of +23 is the strongest bid you can do for +23. It is a no brainer to me. It should prevent J1, which is important. If you do the bid and still J1 I think Japan is in real danger of losing control of China especially with a 3 transport build. So I agree, it is VERY important to be aggressive with India if this is done. The retreat to India UK2 ws probably not your strongest move. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
agreed, not a great start for the axis here and a 60 bid would be hard for sure, but you have something to pull out of your sleeve. I am sure
It helps a little if you tick “show map blends” under view (i think)

Combat Hit Differential Summary :
I am away for a few days now
I am having a hard time vs farmboy in the other game where more or less everything is below average dice.
I guess the french inf bid paid off this time. Its a silly bid but fun to do.
I think it works better in BM if you want to avoid vichy
Watch out, I will even roll tech for china from now 👍
even after 10 years or so “new” situations keep poping up. Thats what I like about this game!
loging in again helped, thanks!
