TGC (CP) vs Yamato (Entente), 1914, oob, with RR rule, Game 3

[The_Good_Captain]

@SuperbattleshipYamato from page 12 of the rulebook, “…if it is not yet at war at the beginning of its fourth turn, the United States will enter the war at that time.”

The US is at war and cannot load on this turn due to the presence of the CP fleet.

I thought so too, but TripleA…

I’ll redo it.

By the way, I noticed that you have a standard way of naming files (R2, AH5, etc.). Considering that most laptops don’t allow the duplication of files, how are you able to use the same names for multiple files for every game?

[The_Good_Captain]

@SuperbattleshipYamato Haha, I don’t. I overwrite every time. If I need that particular game file back, its here, on the forums. =)

@SuperbattleshipYamato said in TGC (CP) vs Yamato (Entente), 1914, oob, with RR rule, Game 3:

@The_Good_Captain

Very, very unhappy about the French dice.

On the navies: As the Entente, I believe the CP navies should be treated as the priority target - or this can/will happen.

On the armies: As the Entente, this is why I am not at all aggressive with the French or Italians. Eventually, at some point, you will eat bad dice and risk the game when it isn’t/wasn’t necessary.

I say this fully understanding that the CP can still very much lose this particular game.
