@dawgoneit said in crockett36 - Allies need bigger bids in all versions:

any one want to give me 60?

Yes. Send me your email and placements.

@oysteilo The Scottish fighter is great but I think if you have 16+ left, the SZ98 sub and Malta fighter for a CV-less Taranto is a great move.

Also the Yunnan stack strategy might be over hyped. I would be inclined to favour:
sub sz98
sub sz106
ftr Scotland
ftr Malta.
DD 91.

That is 40 there.

Thanks for the game. Don’t forget to post it.

Hmmmmmmm… I never did like the Iwo NO or all those Med NO’s… Oh, that’s right, they tried to make almost every island worth money - never agreed with that.

I agree on Iwo/Okinawa, China rules and USSR NOs but the Med NOs spice up the Med and the revised capital capture rules are great.

He lives! Ok.

@gamerman01 I have a rematch and a game with dawg going so I should get to 3 one way or another.

Fair call there. I lost this game largely because I haven’t played large bid OOB games or recent OOB games

Assumed no intercept on Rome.

Edits to USSR, hope they are ok.

There were 2 hits in 111. Lose the DD or Cruiser?

Assumed the DD which worked for you.

Clearly Booper is not to be trifled with.

Welcome to the league, you’re making a splash!

Major miscue early on caused me to lose a bunch of German units and I never recovered even though Japan nearly won in the Pacific. So I would say that I lost the game more than he won it.

Interested in more BM games.

Still open to more.

Saturated for now.

MrRoboto (Allies+22) over Simon33 (Axis) BM

Well played there. Thanks for the game.

I am not sure how I should have stopped the Korea landing but I agree that I should have found a way. In one of my few other games where I played Allies in the last few years, I nearly got a Korea landing early but the counter attack was too strong so I had to pass on the opportunity.

Result posted. Thanks for the game. Will have to have a look at this later.

Japan are weak but Italy is strong vs expectations.

@mainah said in League General Discussion Thread:

Is any one else not receiving all of the MARTI rolls via email?

I have had 3 battles, 2 of which I attacked, 1 of which was an attack to me, to separate games and opponents, over 2 days, where I am receiving less than half the rolls - and not any particular ones at that. Not one complete battle.

I think someone said non-gmail email accounts work better, not sure though.

Hope my cheekyness came accross. Your definately getting India ahead of my schedule.

Was actually wondering if you thought a J3 take down of India was more preferable. I think it is possible but may not be worthwhile. If you go mostly overland, J5 is the correct turn. I get upset if I can’t do this.

You’re getting Libya as well? Good thing I didn’t take Tunisia, which I thought about I3.

Now back to the question at hand, I’m going to say no scramble. I expect you will get everything round 1 but if not, preserve the DD until last.

Sorry, thought it was your turn.

Great defensive dice. I had meant to send a sub to SZ22. Oops.
