Did it work?

Thanks @VictoryFirst , it’s our loss that we can’t play with you for awhile.

Thanks for the go ahead on the G40, and don’t worry about the tournament because the other guys were cool

I wish the best to you, and will be great when you come back

No problem. I will ask you next month for W@W game.

@captainwalker You are right. I will add it when I am up after Entek does Anzac/Dutch

@VictoryFirst let me no

@VictoryFirst said in L25 Ragnell804 Classic (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies), Game 2:

I’ve made a modification to the Classic module that checks for the total stack limits. It also has almost all of the optional rules correctly implemented. I’ve called it Classic League and designed it for use here. Would you like to try it?

What!? That’s amazing! How can I see it?

@VictoryFirst Sounds good. If you ever want to continue this one or start a new game just shoot me a message. Thanks for the game!

@leemorrison said in L25 Classic VictoryFirst (Axis) vs. leemorrison (Allies):

I may need you for technical support. Starting and finishing league games doesn’t seem too easy

OK! I thought we were going to lose you if you thought starting and finishing league games would be a barrier

In the following save file of a game of Classic 2nd Edition, the Japanese have a rocket that is three spaces away from an enemy IC (British controlled Berlin). Per the rules, it should get an opportunity to fire. However TripleA doesn’t roll for it. It says in the history: “Japanese has no targets to attack with Rockets”.

Is this a bug or am I not understanding the rules for Rockets? Here are they for reference.

@Ragnell804 Great, congratulations on your victory. You played very well. I am not going to play the Axis again until someone beats me with them. Have played several solo games and they all ended up in Allied wins. Will set up a new game shortly.

@VictoryFirst all good - take you’re time. I’m always here as you know - haha

Thank you very much for playing, this game went like a breeze. It was a very fun game.

That’s the game. If you start the next one I will make my move later tonight. Need to do some things at work.

@DoManMacgee

Yes, I think OOB Europe is imbalanced in many ways. After the right strategy became apparent, so far I have only lost 1 game as Germany with OOB rules out of 13 games in total, and that loss was mainly caused by a combination of surprise (my opponent put 4 infantry in Bessarabia and I had never faced that bid before) and terrible dice.

Let’s play with the balance. Right now I am testing with Ragnell and TGC with an additional German infantry removed from Romania, not sure if you have tried that out before but it seems to have a positive effect on the balance.

@Ragnell804

Great, I’ll do 4 infantry in Ukraine.

@VictoryFirst

It looks like the players - once again - have to take care of the game rules themselves. As v1 rules differ from the Europe 1999 -rulebook.

OK, that’s fine with me. I’ll start a new OOB game in a second.

Moscow battle: -28.78 / -52 (this one doesn’t really matter but I’ll still include it)
Total: -142.09 / -85

Well that TUV Differential went down fast after the Belorussia battle lol.
