Oh, I was def aware of that possibility.  Even your bombers in Bryansk could reach.  That’s why I left the French there.

You should have attacked Egypt with both American bombers b.t.w… It would have been a small chance, but it might have increased the odds of the UK battle slightly. Then again rather then building the destroyer and 2 more infantry, I should have build 2 tanks and 1 fighter in Egypt. It would have made capturing Egypt nigh impossible. Other then that it was a nice game. The invasion I had to do with the Japanese to help out the Germans worked out nicely. I was actually pondering about sending my Japanese planes to Europe, but wanted to keep all options open.

This game should be put on hold until further notice. We both might face different opponents for our first round in the bracket. See the main thread for further details. I like to think this is to your advantage as I did quite well in my first round.

Over de troepen in Rusland heb ik getwijfeld, maar dat was nog zo ver lopen dat ik me afvroeg of het zin had. En over die schepen van de US: dat deed ik dus niet bewust niet omdat ik eerst wilde proberen Japan dood te maken. Beetje suf om een strategie te kiezen en het eerste potje dat je het probeert meteen iets anders te gaan doen, dan weet je helemaal niet of het je bevalt.

fair enough, perhaps we will meet in 2015!

Tho if you or somebody else can look at this game and see where things went wrong and point those out. I am aware that each player plays differently, but still. Might be helpful.

i understand, good game

@axis-dominion:

yes I agree with your assessment…gibraltar was key for me, key to keeping you divided and therefore weaker. had your fleets combined up, it would’ve been very tough for the allies to make any progress in the atlantic whatsoever. i also felt you built way too many inf! with germany, had you built mechs and tanks to gain more mobility, and with italy too, considering all that income you had, you would’ve had options to flank the russians. instead, the russians had that greater mobility, which was just plain awesome to see. finally, you could’ve definitely put up greater resistance in the pacific, instead of just stacking inf in tokyo and turtling up. with the smaller home fleet you had, instead of hanging out in egypt, you could’ve retaken islands and weakened or even threatened anzac and uk pacific.

for a while russia was strong and i felt i was winning (as i usually do when in a sea lion situation), but when you were convoying america (which was a critical mistake i made for allowing you to do that) and the combined italio-german defense was pushing the russians back, i felt my advantage was quickly slipping and felt the game was going to be over, but it’s the things you pointed out and that i’m pointing out here that allowed me to regain the advantage and finalize the deal

good game and very fun (and funny) game for sure. i’m down for another game if you’d like (i’ll try not to blunder this time ;)

I want proper internet first again. I have to divide my spare internet between current games. 2 of which will end soon. 1 I probably be forced to concede and 2 more that I have doubts whether they can be finished before the end of the league and probably should be conceded as well (I like to start with a clean slate, ak no wins/losses from a previous league season). Once I have proper internet again, you will be the first on my list for a new game. I have enjoyed this game very much and sadly the points you pointed out and the ones I pointed out have resulted in me losing. Tho Gibraltar was most definitely key. Italy was a major force up until then.

Ja. Binnen nu en een week. Ik ga even nadenken over mijn openingen.
