Note that i edit my J TT in sz37 to Hong Kong bc it would not let me in NCM.
Note that i had to change my purchase bc i didn’t realize at the beginning of my Turn that it requires an NB as well.
Changed to a FTR and Sub.
I hope that is ok with you.
Germany sucks and i marinading on the thought to concede.
Underdeveloped decission with poor rolled dice…Let’s keep it going, but i wanted to point out the bad circumstances.
-
@aequitas-et-veritas No problem, I’m relaxed about editing so that’s all fine with me.
It’s important that we enjoy the games we are playing, so I understand if you get to a point where you would rather concede than keep playing. Germany has it tough in PtV, it needs the favour of dice gods and Italy to do well before the Allies start getting their act together.

@flyingbadger well we continue for now.
I am interested in how you see the german gameplay for now. -

@flyingbadger yupp

I’ve probably played about 6 or so games of PtV as the Allies, most German openings have been taking Normandy and Paris whilst attacking chunks of the Royal Navy. Triggering Vichy seems the right thing to do also. Your purchase of the major IC was interesting and would like to see the long term affect of Germany being able continually drop a lot of units close to both Russia and the Middle East.
That purchase does free up the British to buy offensively on UK1. My initial reaction was that it would allow Germany to aggresively push through Ukraine and into the Middle East and get around Moscow or towards India depending on strategy, dice, etc… but at the expense of giving Russia or the UK opportunities elsewhere on early turns.
I liked the mix of units purchase G2 and G3. You’re not badly poised with Germany for the assault on Russia, especially in the south, and the only Allied shipping is on the other side of the Atlantic. Italy is controlling most of the Med as well so that’s one less thing for Germany to have to worry about at the moment (I have been much more aggresive towards Italy in more recent games as the PtV objectives can let Italy become a difficult problem for the Allies if not given enough attention).
Russia does have a bit more of a sting in PtV, in another game I have captured Finland with nothing in Norway to stop me and have nearly 60 IPCs of income on turn 3!
I’ve attached the save file from the best German play I’ve experienced so far, Adam514 is kicking my butt in this game (I have just offered him a draw if he asks nicely :wink: ).
triplea_37205_8jap.tsvgI’m not the most experienced player but those are my thoughts for what they are worth. If you have specific questions I’m happy to try and answer them. I will be asking you for feedback once the game is settled.

@FlyingBadger I had to leave yesterday bc my Fish tank broke.
I set up a sz 100 (I was able to allready roll this battle wich resulted in a DD kill and a dent Ita BB) and now the E.Pola take with zero casualties for Ita. But I missed to place my Ita Bmbr right to perform a battle on that Rus CR wich you will find in the following Map/file.I hope that I explained the issue correctly and that you are ok with the way I handled it.
All rolles should be in your Marti Emails.

@flyingbadger said in L21 PtV FlyingBadger (AL) vs AetV (AX+8):
I’ve probably played about 6 or so games of PtV as the Allies, most German openings have been taking Normandy and Paris whilst attacking chunks of the Royal Navy. Triggering Vichy seems the right thing to do also. Your purchase of the major IC was interesting and would like to see the long term affect of Germany being able continually drop a lot of units close to both Russia and the Middle East.
That purchase does free up the British to buy offensively on UK1. My initial reaction was that it would allow Germany to aggresively push through Ukraine and into the Middle East and get around Moscow or towards India depending on strategy, dice, etc… but at the expense of giving Russia or the UK opportunities elsewhere on early turns.
I liked the mix of units purchase G2 and G3. You’re not badly poised with Germany for the assault on Russia, especially in the south, and the only Allied shipping is on the other side of the Atlantic. Italy is controlling most of the Med as well so that’s one less thing for Germany to have to worry about at the moment (I have been much more aggresive towards Italy in more recent games as the PtV objectives can let Italy become a difficult problem for the Allies if not given enough attention).
Russia does have a bit more of a sting in PtV, in another game I have captured Finland with nothing in Norway to stop me and have nearly 60 IPCs of income on turn 3!
I’ve attached the save file from the best German play I’ve experienced so far, Adam514 is kicking my butt in this game (I have just offered him a draw if he asks nicely :wink: ).
triplea_37205_8jap.tsvgI’m not the most experienced player but those are my thoughts for what they are worth. If you have specific questions I’m happy to try and answer them. I will be asking you for feedback once the game is settled.
It was very interresting to read your thoughts and opinions about our game and PtV in general. For my self, i have nearly the same thoughts as you.
If one side does bad, you still have the other side of the whole theatre.
What really frustrated me was the fact that PtV has a much greater impact than BM3/4 on this matter I think. While you now have more options with Japan, the time window for Germany is closeing in faster.Maybe that would be the propper solution to play PtV without a bid at all by simply extend the supplyline EUS vs Gibraltar by one additional SZ.
But this needs to be discussed elsewhere and should not come now from me since I play Axis and would wish for some sort of inner relief :blush:At least I also know that I am doing not sooo bad, wich is something.
