…all those juicy transports.

Anxiously looks at Pearl harbor

SO JUICY

@tmartin Yes they can.

October 2020 - January 2021 is now complete, @MrRoboto can update when he has time.

@Culann Scramble won’t matter in 32, go ahead and roll it.

@Stucifer

Wait, how’d you do that? Can you please teach me? Thank you!

Adding a screenshot to make it clear

Open History
Right Click the “Round: X” (whatever start of round you want to save at is)
Use the “Save Game at this point” command

you can also use TripleA to generate board setup charts

and I used the Export Gameboard Picture to print my Path to Victory map I made (league Global 1940 variant)

@mikawagunichi True. It will cost Italy quite a bit. And you were going to lose Egypt/Iraq regardless.

@Culann happy to play again with switched sides if you want. I have not played Allies much at all in this version.

@barnee Okay perfect! I downloaded and tried saving a test game and that save file still opens in my 2.6 client. So perhaps I can start sneakily using 2.7 soon!! 🤭

Unless the player is generous and gives me a larger than average bid from the get-go. What I’m suggesting is that if there was at least a mild incentive to do so, it might happen more often. Not to call anyone out, but entering over 500 games I see people playing the bottom-ELO players and half the time that player gets a below-average bid, and they are always losing those games.

@Culann Yeah Germany is feeling pretty good having Rule’d Brittania for a second time. Italy is weak but just needs to HODL for a bit until the American Petrodollar collapses and it’s Fascescoin is worth thirteen Bitcoin again. Japan is using its lengthy tentacles to threaten India and Sydney simultaneously.

Good to start a new game here with you as Axis, I can get it set up in a few ;)

@Gorshak Yeah, I wondered about that too, in the end I think it draws too much energy from breaking China at Yunnan and holding the Money Islands. The IPCs are pretty meager in comparison to the investment needed. I love the addition of the factory there, but I think it’s in Japan’s interest to leave the USSR be and make them attack you first.

I would welcome a rematch, don’t want to hurt your rating too much by winning against me again though 😛😛

New Stellaris patch? haha

@mikawagunichi
I skipped the intercept in Russia

@cloud7707 I don’t remember what rules were being used. I have a couple games going and fairly busy (just moved a couple weeks ago) but if I have time this week I’ll set a fresh game up.

@mikawagunichi Yeah that seems like a fair and easy way to do it. Take it away sir

@cloud7707 too much vodka in comrade’s rations

@Gorshak Sounds good, thanks for the clarification! It was a win for me either way so I would prefer to use your intended actions and will play the file you posted.

British roll dice: 3/4 hits, 2,67 expected hits

Japanese roll dice: 1/4 hits, 2,17 expected hits

@mikawagunichi Elected to go back to the NCM autosave and change the NCMs around Siberia, use the second post please :)
