L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3


  • @trulpen said in L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3:

    Yes, that was the main point of stacking there. Not so much to put pressure on Finland and Norway. On short sight that’s rather pointless for dear Russia.

    Allied cooperation. nice.

    At the same time I had a very good alternative of staying in Belarus and preventing intrusion in E Poland. But maybe I didn’t have quite enough for that feat?


  • @trulpen

    I am not sure now, hard to tell, should had to go to look the past situation on the map.

    i am thinking about my German move now, and buyings, there are more options, and I need to choose one of them xd


  • @Amon-Sul said in L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3:

    What do U mean by holding out on the Russians, U mean playing too defensively against Russia?

    Yes, and mainly a lot of investment has gone into fleet and kicking UKs butt, but that means Germany is rather weak on the eastern front. I believe more immediate pressure has to be made against Russia. It’s Germany’s key objective in the early game. Early Sea Lion is a trap.


  • At the same time you killed me with your awkward (or atleast unorthodox) allied opening. It’s a bit too early to conclude this game. Italy is a powerhouse!

    So U do not think Sea Lion (even if sucessfull) is a good option?


  • hey, just one thing about Mongolian treaty.

    U can only break it if U attack Japanese territory bordering Mongolia.

    If U attack Japanese controlled Kansu , U deactivate the Treaty.

    But if U attack Japan in Sikang U do not.

    No. Definitely not. The only exception is if it was able to be executed with minimal investments.

    Now I’m not saying this about Sea Lion in general, only the very early one, like during G2-4.

    I presume you mean Suiyuyan. Yes, it only gets in effect regarding territories bordering Mongolia.

    If Japan conquers Suiyuyan and Russia attacks it, Mongolia is off.

    By the same measure I don’t believe it gets activated if Japan attacks Suiyuyan and there are russian troops there. So activating Mongolia would only happen when attacking russian territories.

    Suyiyuan, Kansu, Chahar,i mean all of them.

    Well it is different. Japan activates Mongolian treaty only when attackin ORIGINAL Russian territories bordering Mongolia,

    while Russia can deactivate it while attacking any Japanese territory bordering Mongolia (does not have to be original Japanese one).
    And i think if Russia attacks Korea its the same as attacking Japanese territory bordering Mongolia


  • ok, i ve done my buyings.

    let s roll

  • @trulpen said in L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3:

    Luck on your side as usual.

    All the battles except those west of Novgorod where around 90 % or more, U scored pretty well in Besarabia, in Baltic States too and gave me a lot of problems there. I scored great in Belarus but U can easily smash me there.

    And for west of Novgorod, well , luck follows the brave :)

    Remember our previous game?

    Not always. I’m brave. ;)


  • @Amon-Sul said in L20 #2 Amon-Sul (X) vs trulpen (A+7) BM3:

    follows

    I think I am the type of player which more than average goes to (not certain) battles.

    For U , I would say the opposite.

    But It those not mean that my playstyle is brave and ur isn t.

    And too much bravery can mean someone is crazy xd

    i just said that luck follows the brave as a proverb, and there is always half truth in any.


  • what in previous game?

    I think U should not be dissatisfiied with these round dice rolls since U scored too good in both Besarabia and Baltic States.


  • Hehe, in our previous game I was toast in most (not all) such battles. Especially in Asia.

    Actually, just now in another game I made two attacks against chinese. 2 inf for both on both spots. Had 1 fig, 1 tac against Sikang and 2 sb against Kansu. Killed off the chinese, sure, but surprise the chinamen hit 100 % in both locations.

    It sure brought back some nasty memories… ;)
