@Argothair that sounds fine yeah I don’t care about the dice server. I’ve never once opened an email from Marti to see what they were lol. As for settings, I know that the map is set to Low Luck, which I’m ambivalent about. I’m generally opposed to LL as it seems to take the variance out, and that’s what makes games unpredictable. The battle calculator already takes out a lot of the guesswork, I dunno. If you have strong feelings we can leave it but I prefer dice.

Haha, to be honest I didn’t even look at the board when asked about scrambles; I just tend to be hesitant with them to be overprotective of London. I’m sorry you got diced but probably it will not matter. You are the better player and I’m just easing into competitive play.

Jason, I think we can just do common sense OOL. If it’s a big battle, or if it’s statistically plausible one of us could get diced (<90% win rate for either side). I think we should pause and ask. In situations like the Russian Baltic fleet is in, max defense please, transport is just fodder.

@wizmark Ok you got it I’ll probably send it down to Queensland, my bad. I’ll read the notes file in full obviously I’m rusty. Sorry!

Absolutely fine!

Yes having trouble keeping the games straight lol.

The fighters? Yes I have never seen that before. Again, I think I will lose almost assuredly but it is giving my otherwise pitiful siege of Germany some teeth

It’s definitely covering up for my lack of expert strategy. Now let’s see if these Tommies are as skillful, scrambles in FIC?

Also, you’ll get it on the next go

@Elvis66 Give me a week or so to finish one of my four games and I’ll take you on; I’m new to competitive play as well. But I can barely keep my games straight as it is so just need a little time.

@trulpen You definitely need more sleep haha; one night we went to bed at the same time I think and you’re 5-6 hours ahead of me XD

Ugh, sorry! Thanks for the reminder.

TheShrike (L) vs. Wizmark (X), Wiz wins https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/34404/wiz-x-vs-the-shrike-l-bm3-g1/126?page=6

Well done and thanks for putting up with a newbie.

No worries.

Sovietishcat (L) vs The Shrike (X); Sovietishcat wins! I thought I was bad at Allies, but it turns out, I’m just bad lol. I’m like 0-7 since starting the league but learn something every game. Well played Sov.

That’s alright, you’ve got the Japanese on the run on that side of the board. Totally lost the strategic initiative there.
