@Marshmallow:

We gots a problem here, as you haven’t been asking for intercept and scramble orders. I absolutely would have intercepted in W Germany to clean out remaining US air units in Europe, but you never asked.

Next time please ask even if you think the answer will be no.

Sorry I didn’t think you would intercept since you had no chance at my bombers. And would like to keep your fighters for attacking and ground defense  You didn’t have any scramble decisions that turn.  I’d be more than happy to roll out the intercept battle if you would like to.

No need this time.

No need this time.

I see you also assumed no scramble into sea zone 112 which would have turned your 100% battle into a 31% battle. I can’t think of any justification for making that assumption.

In the interest of moving forward I’m just going to ignore this, but please don’t make any more assumptions about intercepts and scrambling in this game. Ask each time.

Marsh

[majikforce]

Again I didn’t ask for scramble decisions because you did not have the ability to scramble since I bombed your air base.  I would never assume no scramble with those kind of odds!  I do apologize for not asking for intercept but I think I explained my reasoning in an earlier post.  But going forward I will honor your wishes and ask for all scrambles and intercepts.  Cheers! And game on!

[MarshmallowofWar]

Yep, you’re right – no scramble without base. I realized that about ten minutes later.

Work turns your brain to mush :(

I’m gonna finally concede this one.  Too many bad dice on the Atlantic side the last couple of turns and I have no answer for the mighty rising sun empire.  I kept wanting to do the neutral crush but I missed my window and could never attempt it without to much risk.  Nice work!  I still think BM is a way better version of this game and while not totally balanced its makes for a much better game without some of the flaws inherent in this version.  ex. capital plundering.  It’s such an advantage for the axis in Vanilla.  You should turn to the dark side :wink:!  Good game.  I had fun.  Be well.  Gonna finish up my other games and take a break for a while.

Thanks for the game. I enjoyed your European effort and your Russia recapture. You’re correct that oob is unbalanced, and if BM were purely an effort to balance out of box instead of add new mechanisms and rules I would probably enjoy it more. I’ll refrain from soapboxing further.

I missed an opportunity on J13 to guarantee a win on J14. Was kicking myself for that.

Please let me know when you’re interested in another game!
