19L Semis Adam514(Allies +13) vs ksmckay

@ksmckay Yeah, that DD killed a lot of my subs too.

[ksmckay]

feel pretty behind, so i am getting lazy. didnt even bother to check odds if you stacked Java. Knew you couldnt go anywhere north and assumed java was safe too, but it is not.

[ksmckay]

meh, i think i will just concede. I dont really see a path forward. Been busy and not able to spend as much time on the game as Id like but really its just that I am not sure what to do at this point. Very solid play on your part, not really sure what I should have done differently. Your early defense (strategy, not dice) in europe was pretty awesome. But at this point I cant even see a long odds attack that would even make a difference.

Well played and have fun in finals.

@ksmckay Damn if you had deadzoned Java it would have been a pretty tight match. Very well played, you had me worried! Good game!

[ksmckay]

Really? Seemed to me like things were falling apart everywhere. Russia was impregnable, Egypt was safe and Pacific was falling apart.

[ksmckay]

But losing Java really hurts.

[Adam514]

@ksmckay Russia is stuck to turtling, you’ll get all the far east Russian territories and income would be very close, as it is now.

[ksmckay]

well good to know I had you worried. I need to play more games, I get to this point and I have a hard time judging things. Feels like there is no room to do anything and then I start to play a little carelessly.
