@wheatbeer Yes, gg. Once you took egypt early, I had to pressure Germany with amphibs to try to keep them away from south russia or it was likely over for allies.

@HypoAF I haven’t seen you post in any of your games in awhile, are you still active?

@owentoo No problem on the wait.

I prefer bidding to set sides, but I would honor the last bid I offered (Allies +22) when bidding for this match.

I was a bit surprised your counter went down to +18, but then again, I see some people going for +12 or ever lower.

Alright. Thanks for the games Sir!

threads up and awaiting scramble orders

Thanks, I’ll take you up on that eventually but I’m going to wait a bit - this first year in the league has been a bit challenging…

It’s also the Soviet’s turn.

Thanks … as you’d expect, he utterly crushed me as Axis in game 1, by dice and by strategy. So mercifully I get to be Axis this go around.

sure.
I’ll get it started later.

I’ll play axis. I’ll let you know when I have everything set up and ready to go…should be by Wednesday.

I don’t mind at all … I can experiment with a different strategy in Asia this time.  :-)

+9?  hmmm……

ok, I guess.  So far I am not sure how effective the bids have been for the Axis player.  An extra sub in the Atlantic can make some difference and an extra man makes it that much easier to trigger Vichy.

Axis yours.

PM me when ready.

I think that the reason that players try to force Sealion is that they think that defeating the UK is the same as defeating Middle Earth. The way to defeat it is to win the game. The best way for the Axis to win it seems to me is playing your own strategy and forcing the Allies to react to it. The Axis have the advantage and initiative to begin the game and they need to strike hard and as quickly as possible without worrying where the UK builds a factory. Middle Earth gives the Allies a chance to stop the Axis from over-running Moscow and Calcutta but that’s all, only a chance. With no Sealion Middle Earth helps to even out the odds. With Sealion the Allies take the advantage. That’s what I have found so far.

Been awhile, so I’m just posting as a reminder

Ah! Now I see it

I couldn’t post google image cache links for some reason.

This was going to be my original suggestion for dawgoneit, but there was no shortage of WW2 dogs to choose from and they’re all gold.

ok, I will get it going soon, prob tomorrow.

@wheatbeer:

GG

Sorry the Allies had rotten luck in Persia … Japan should have lost a few more planes at least  :|

yeah that looked pretty ugly, might have continued with an avaerage result, but even then it would have been near to impossible. Poor decisions early on I guess

sure let me know when you got time!
