oh dang, you cannot catch a break this game!

[JDOW]

@axis-dominion:

and France sucked hard lol

did it?
You lost 2 planes, but except that only 5 inf which is way above average. So you could convert this in losing 1 plane but 3 more ground and you are totally in the average range. imo.
Then 4/10 on the ground which is minimal above average and you won both sub battles.

Looked like a pretty close to average G1 overall except that you have traded a plane to some extra ground survivors in France.

[JDOW]

In any case an interesting game for sure. I like that you always come up with new ideas.

However, with a bid and not attack on wither 110 and 111 I would definitely not let Bessarabia let go in my G1 DOW.

[axis-dominion]

true from a tuv perspective, it’s just that given this riskier opening, i really wanted fance to be a total knockout lol i was ok with one plane loss but two sucked

yah I thought about bess as well, but in the end i decided against it cuz I wanted to ensure a strong e.poland so he couldn’t easily counter it (in case I had casualties in that battle), plus I needed one inf to go to yugo for the strafe-then-retreat-to-romania gig, plus one inf to pick up the Romanians. so I kinda had everything allocated out already

[JDOW]

Yeah, I take air over France regularly as you said, to reduce the amount of losses. Every survivor on the ground is gold in the late game and money the Germans do not have a spend on defense in the west but to invest into mechanized units to fight the red arch enemy :D

[JDOW]

I did a DOW1 just once in my current playoff game vs Omega. In this game I skipped Yugo entirely because I was too worried a strafe might not work :D

[axis-dominion]

@JDOW:

I did a DOW1 just once in my current playoff game vs Omega. In this game I skipped Yugo entirely because I was too worried a strafe might not work :D

oh cool I’ll have to check that one out…also, in case e.poland goes especially bad, I would use the last Romanian troop to reinforce instead of picking up the Bulgarians, which would suck cuz that would delay their activation, but anything to ensure my forward tanks are safe from a counter.

this would be like my 5th or 6th G1 dow in bm, tho all my pervious ones were bm2. and I won them all except the one vs Adam. but in bm2 it was a little harder cuz Russia’s lend-lease NOs kicked in immediately.

[JDOW]

Yes, I understand about EP, by no way you can allow Russia to successfully attack it.
However in my game against Omega, I neither had a bit AND he had an extra Russian fighter in range AND I attacked Bessa and he still did not have a good attack on EP.

I had great dice in that game though but I guess, especially with an extra bid, EP should not be a big deal.

[JDOW]

I just want to emphasize that killing as many Russian units as possible is the main merit a G1 DOW has. As Russia takes cover behind the defenders advantage the G1 follows the idea to limit the Russian defense capabilities by killing 7 Russians and maybe more in case the surviving Germans hit in defense in R1 at Bessa or Baltic.

I believe by not maximizing the amount of killed Russian a G1 DOW will not develop it’s need as it also comes with some costs.
In your case UK monster fleet, 5 less income, fast units being out of position, so you need some relevant benefit for that.
