  • Battleship gives a good-bye kiss

    Japan loses a fighter I guess, I can’t figure out what’s better, not much difference

    SO

    Japan gets super lucky, clearing with maximum survivors and a couple to possibly plink one destroyer. Maybe.

  • China gonna do what USA has so far been unable to
    TUVs look wild, but with its lowly 97, China is UNSTOPPABLE

    Me 'n the dice put a thumb in one of the 10 holes in the dike. Partly made up for the big blunder

    USA with 3 tokens and 72! Back to you!


  • And you will notice…

    The Japs control Shan State!!

    😆


  • Hey, could have been worse, I didn’t get shipyards or heavy bombers or something there with that one token

    Game is feeling very lost for me, but I shall persevere! No tech dice buys as USA.

    I am not sure if this format is correct but we will try.

  • Aw, I didn’t see that you moved

    I’ve been re-creating the 2014 championship game and learning a lot about how to return to OOB
    But it was only a 21 bid

  • 2024 2023

    Certainly seems like a good way to learn. Who were the competitors? I didn’t start playing global until a little over a year ago, only had Anniversary and that was plenty for me and my one friend I could convince to play ;)


  • It was a 27 rounder, my 2nd consecutive championship which this time was against the great Ghostglider

    I’m a shell of my former self

    Ghostglider v gamerman01 2014 champ G6.tsvg


  • Yes, I’m learning quickly, what to do in OOB

    Ghost expertly went for the 5 communism NO’s

    G40 was in its glory days in 2014-2015, had been out about 2 years and everyone was playing it. AA50 got dropped like a hot pan 😭

  • 2024 2023

    Ghostglider just won the PtV championship this year too, right?

    You’re very modest, I’ve been watching the BM finals review with Crockett36 and I’ve been thoroughly picked apart in this game, well at least in Europe haha

  • 2024 2023 '22 '15 '11 '10 Official Q&A Moderator

    Maybe I missed a game or two, I have ghost waiting for the other side.
    He actually beat Adam and he’s got the highest ELO in PtV

    Yes the 2014 championship was one of my greatest A&A accomplishments. Ghostglider is awesome at all versions.

    You’re right, Germany came right back to me. Muffed Japan, never been suffocated that fast before I don’t think. JDOW I think came up with that Yunnan gambit and it is super nasty.


  • You have noticed I have sacrificed a fair amount of Italy and Japan’s forces and time and attention on Russian assets.

    It’s more sound to be strong on both sides, of course, but it looks like this is going to work well, along with some very nice dice assists

    Will get this Italy done tonight for sure. Bummed I didn’t get notification of your move

  • 2024 2023

    Yeah I learned from the greats in the strategy threads and a couple YouTube channels - GeneralHandGrenade & YoungGrasshopper.

    Have you played YG’s 3G40 setup with combined UK Pacific & ANZAC? I played my friend Culann a few times using the tripleA servers and set it up to play live with another friend once.

  • 2024 2023

    Ah, you’re probably right. Just saw that he beat Adam which is quite the accomplishment.
