@wizmark Nope, enjoy your easy kills
L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2
-
The horrible dicing at Ukraine is probably impossible to overcome
-
@gamerman01 What do you mean? I had to go with the navy since Anzac and France were in between? If you look at my NCM I first only moved my trannie which would’ve been sunk?
-
@gamerman01 Yeah that was crazy.
-
@gamerman01 I do agree that if I can play a steady EU axis game, I will probably make it.
-
I can’t use it as an excuse, but I think it assured my doom - I can’t hold Russia with a 5 infantry swing, plus losing 2 IPCs, plus Germany buying there immediately.
Oh, you’re right, the german tank would be sunk. I would have waited a turn I guess. Anyway, I’m just happy I can make you pay for German cheese! Unless you decide to use it against Syria?!
-
Your strong by-the-book play on both sides with no blunders will overcome my frantic efforts to get back in it. No wonder you win against everybody but ghost and trulpen
-
@gamerman01 Please explain this part, sorry
“I can’t hold Russia with a 5 infantry swing, plus losing 2 IPCs, plus Germany buying there immediately.”
Thanks!
-
@pejon_88 Oh you mean Ukraine, now i get it!
-
@pejon_88 I liked your Rostov stacking. One obvious downside to it is that Novgorod forces can assist in threatening Bryansk.
-
Good point - I just had to stop the advance for a turn I thought, but I’m still screwed. I’m just trying to bait you into poor moves, that’s all I got at this point.
Of course I’m using gamesmanship and playing mind games with every post… :grinning:
-
@gamerman01 Haha!! To be honest, I am quite confident in my German defense game. I think, currently you are unable to land anywhere safely. I’m gonna double check ;)

Maybe played that turn a bit too fast for my own good, but feel I have a solid defense. What did I miss…? :O
-
@pejon_88 Probably not much, or nothing :expressionless:

UK to come, probably tomorrow since I’m entertaining guests tonight

@gamerman01 Great! hope you’ll have a great start of the year.
