G12.tsvg Just for the record, you don’t have to play to the exact victory conditions. If the end appears inevitable, concession is totally fine. If you’re having fun and want to keep playing that’s fine too.

@the_good_captain

Hmm.

On the one hand I kinda want to end, since I’m done for and I want to test out your strategies.

But on the other hand (and this applies to games against myself) I’ve always played to victory conditions, sort a “tradition” for me.

Anyhow, we’ll play to the end. Just make it quick, okay (I know that’s entirely at the whim of the dice)?

G14.tsvg since Paris is captured and there are no Entente forces capable of creating a contested zone between now and the beginning of Germany’s next turn, this is officially a CP win - GG my friend.

Finally! Good game. I assume that’s what “GG” means?

While I know a lot more from your videos, aside from not doing what your videos suggested, what did I do wrong, why was it the wrong move, and what should I have done instead? Thank you!

Thanks for playing with me. We can start another game sometime later (tell me when you’re ready, it can be as early as tomorrow).

@superbattleshipyamato Strategically - I can’t see any case where the UK should not prioritize the security of Africa via Egypt and also India. In short, the UK really cannot afford to de-prioritize those two areas. India should never be allowed to fall. Africa should never be allowed to fall.

Tactically, I notice you vacate territories entirely when you want to pull back. I would recommend leaving a single infantry behind to create a contested zone. This usually means that the enemy army in the vacated territory will NOT be able to pursue you on the following turn. This helps tremendously as a general rule - not in EVERY case, but in the vast majority of cases.

Finally, keep a close eye on the rules around moving units out of a contested zone. On the previous American turn in this game you vacated the remaining units from Piedmont to Marseilles - this is not legal. Units in a contested zone can only move to a territory their power controls or to another contested zone with that powers units in it - that’s all. It’s very specific.

Would love to play another game. I’ll send you AH1 of our next game tonight and you can get to Russia 1 whenever you have time. This will probably still be a “learning” game as well in that now that you have a better understanding of how TripleA and 1914 work, I will pay very close attention to your moves both for legality and for post-game notes / improvement.

I think the above comments are a good starting point. There is nothing that is so much “wrong” as there are things to pay closer attention to and game mechanics to improve on.

Thank you for the advice! I really appreciate it.

You didn’t send the game yet.

I would also like to add that your advise makes a lot of sense.

I did. It’s in your @ mentions. I sent it via the messenger. And you can always click “play boardgames” on the header of this thread to find it but here it is again: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/39935/tgc-cp-v-yamato-entente-1914-oob-with-rr-rule

@the_good_captain

Oh, so your plan was to do the same opener like last time, and thus you didn’t feel the need to do a new game. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[SuperbattleshipYamato]

@the_good_captain

Oh wait, you set up another thread! Sorry about that.
