@zarhunter said in L24 BM Zarhunter (Axis) vs FlyingBadger (Allies+15) #4:

it started off well but then ended bad.

Yes, Germany and Italy we’re putting the UK under a lot of pressure early, but I held onto Gibraltar and Egypt, and Germany struggled to get momentum against Russia.

I am not sure how I lost pace on this game

I can look back and let you know my thoughts if you like?

concede good game, I am not up to your level obviously.

Thanks you for the game and the compliment. There probably isn’t that much between us, maybe just a few little things and some dice rolls make it feel like that.

Thank you for a great game.
A very unusual game without UK and Italy most of the game.

I was feeling confident in Europe the last part of the game and was taken by surprise when I blundered W.Eur away. Lucky for me that I had kept my units in N.Italy in round 34 so I could retake Germany again.

@Sovietishcat GG

@Sovietishcat Thx a lot for your feedback. I thought I could not hold Belarus, but now as I had a look I saw that I could, also very comfortable…
I think I overprotected Kiangsu to hold the factory there, but as you said, once your china/russia troups arrived Yunnan (Burma) game was over in the Pac…
Looking forward for a rematch. cya

@Gorshak

Would you like to start the bidding?

@pacifiersboard Alles klar, sehr gerne (also das Rückspiel).

One last disparate battle in SZ36 failed. I concede.

Let me know if you can stand a third game.

@jim010 Hope all is well! Able to pick this back up or shoudl we call it?

@jim010

Well have you figured it out yet? I suggest you try to make something out of it, only so you can learn from your mistake. I promise you you’ll become a better player when you continue a game.

@aequitas-et-veritas said in L24 bm4 axis-dom (axis) vs aetv (allies+30):

Hi @axis-dominion , I agree with you, I felt the struggle you have with the Easternfront, but wasn’t throwing away my US Pac Navy on purpose.
My thought was that I didn’t think you would Go for a Leveling by Air since you very systematically based your Japanes Power by it with constant buys of Air (wich I will copy in a similar manar in my next games from now on).
Yes i try to entice you to but got the idea that even you would win this battle , that you are about to loose the Mainland. Also i missed a few planes (my fault).
Lesson learned !
I was about to set up another lure in the Pacific, But your Germans looking powerful enough that no matter what, you will overrun me there.
There is so much i can learn from you. Right now it would just not be fair from my side to ask for another game bc i work a lot recently to prep up for my oncoming divorce.
Thank you for the game and for your patience.
You are a wonderful opponent to play against.

that reasoning makes sense, thanks for clarifying. my word choice of ‘throwing’ was a bit too harsh, sorry :) definitely enjoyed this game, tho, and look forward to playing again in the future whenever you feel ready, no rush tho. and so sorry to hear about your divorce situation. hope everything works out for the best!

@axis-dominion
I am probably not a such gambler - getting older.

@elche

Danke, schönes Spiel! Auf ein neues (wann auch immer)!?

@axis-dominion

are you getting bored or might you still have fun proving Allies-Dominion to me?

Hahaha

Not bored, we can start another one soon. I’ll think about my bid and get back to you sometime this week to kick off another.

You do make the games interesting I’ll give you that.

@Adam514 said in pacifiersboard (X) -vs- Adam514 (L +19) BM:

Thanks for the game!

Let’s wait a few weeks, is that okay?

totally fine - have a great summer

@zarhunter Thanks for this game. Well played, you caught me out with the invasion of the UK. I will set up the next game.

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris the bombers are definitely a challenge. A bit more bid would of course help. But I do think a win is doable at this bid and would love to try it again down the road.
