Yeah, you’re right.

Also, I have yet to actually receive a 60 IPC bid from Andrew.

@Marshmallow-of-War aka Jonathan how can you say that? The very last game we played face to face before COVID 19 hit, at Ram’s house, I gave your team $60.

BM 3 over OoB.

From what I’ve seen on triplea guys are blasting BM3. Even the big guns like it alot.

Yes, you started early, put me on a team with complete newbs who listened to XXX about what do for the bid, and when I showed up 5 minutes late I got handed ANZAC. Meanwhile, you and Ted executed a well-prepared script that you’ve rehearsed many times.
I stand by my statement – I have never received a 60 IPC bid from you.

@GEN-MANSTEIN I do not like it but won’t go into why – not the purpose of the thread.

LOL - okay if you feel that way. Let’s not hijack this thread. PM me and we can start a game. You can be Axis or Allies at $60.

Ya go ahead. Start another thread. Maybe some guys want to hear your opinion?
-
@GEN-MANSTEIN Nah, I’ve said it all before.

Sure thing. I’ll email the bid placement.

OOB, no bids.
Gotta stay classic
-
@Alex-Phillips if your play group is not good then yeah vanilla no bid is pretty balanced
-
@Colt45554 We’ve all been playing since the 90’s in our core 4, and we’ve played almost weekly for the last 8 years.
Out of the box with no bids works perfectly. If you find one side always wins, change up the strategy. Its all in the dice rolls any way you play.

Welcome Alex! I am going to have to totally disagree with you on this comment. A good strategy will always win against a poor strategy; no matter how bad the dice are for the Player with the good strategy. There are ways to mitigate the dice and that is what a good strategy does.
I will agree with you that against Players of equal caliber, with equally good strategies, that the dice or a blunder will make the difference.
I do not lose very often but when I do it is probably only about 20% of the time due to really bad dice. The bulk of the time I lose, the other 80%, is due to my opponent outplaying me or I make a blunder that my opponent takes advantage of. Hmmm, I guess those really are the same thing aren’t they… my opponent outplays me.
So the dice are not the difference maker, talent is the difference maker.
Hope you join the league and start playing!

@AndrewAAGamer I’ll be baited. Unfortunately I think there’s a lot of arrogance displayed by some of the more serious/veteran posters like yourself, Gen. Manstein, etc. It puts me off joining any league on here. I like to post the occasional snippet, read interesting strategies, but that’s it, thanks.

You don’t have to play against anybody you don’t want to play against, its fun I promise! You can simply ignore those that you don’t want to deal with.
-
@Alex-Phillips sorry if my post came off as snobby; was not my intention and I am not a good/bad player. OOB face-to-face works great until you find out the strategies that have been perfected and this site has loads of that info. After that, in my personal experience, face-to-face games became different with Axis playing more optimal ways.

Yeah - sorry, I don’t know what “I’ll be baited” means. But apparently you are not interested in any advice from me and that is cool. To each their own. Good luck in your gaming!

OOB with 2nd choice Siredbloods variant. BM3 no way ever
