L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis)

[gamerman01]

GAA it’s like you’ve played Japan 100 times or something

[MrRoboto]

You can’t dodge the US turn forever, sooner or later you’ll have to sacrifice into the yellow machinery ;-)

[gamerman01]

It’s intimidating.

Farmboy is keeping me hopping this week - 3 rounds in 6 days is a lot for me

[gamerman01]

(In case you didn’t realize)

Farmboy is league championship game. It’s his first, so he’s into it, and I haven’t been in it for like 9 years. Also, my side of the bracket got off to a really slow start, so with champ game starting in September, that one is priority 1. And it takes a lot of RAM…

Thx, thx

[gamerman01]

Please be aware, Dutch New Guinea was supposed to be rolled first because it’s amphibious - obviously it didn’t matter this time, but for future reference, thanks

The J play is so strong - it looks pretty much perfect…

Ack, good thing I looked, notification doesn’t work and I just saw this - now you know I’ve seen it though

36% Chance to sink your 110 fleet after scrambling. Wow that’s tempting, it would change the Euro side quite drastically. And I can always retreat to 112 if the first round goes average or even below average.

I need to think about that. And you’re giving me 25% on another extremely tempting target too…

Would you go for it in 110?
It doesn’t mean Europe would be won, but it could give Germany quite some time to get Moscow. 1/3 Chance to secure that side?

[gamerman01]

Bah, notifications not working.

Will look at the game now

[gamerman01]

I’ll admit I don’t know where the 25%er is
Of course I wouldn’t go for it, that’s why I left it for you. If it’s a hard decision, I did well :blush:

I didn’t dare to do it.

[gamerman01]

@MrRoboto said in L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis):

I didn’t dare to do it.

:innocent:

I would have simply hearted your post but I can’t because I hit the max. I never knew there was a max per day until last night.

[gamerman01]

Wow. This is going to be interesting. Sometimes once I look at it a minute and get an idea and work it out, I don’t consider other options. A lot of room for improvement.

Well, I’m gonna do it again, go with my instincts.

[gamerman01]

Nope, first idea isn’t too good. Second one definitely is.

[gamerman01]

OK, I think this was the third idea. Or so.

The 25% chance is the Persian factory.
Huge carrot in front of me…

[gamerman01]

@MrRoboto Ahhhh, from memory that sounds about right.

If you don’t offer up carrots, you’re not doing it right :laughing:

I was just now looking for a post by you that I had just glanced minutes ago. I don’t think I’d seen it before. Can’t find it in league discussion or post results. Hmmmmmm

[gamerman01]

Checked your recent posts, not seeing it. I don’t expect you to accommodate me, but if you know what I’m talking about…
