@FlyingBadger I realize the sub in 110 can slow down the G1 combat resolution, but… I still choose it
L24 OOB Gamerman01 (Axis) vs FlyingBadger (Allies+51) #1
-
As close to the 6.83 average you could get…
I’ll lose 7 subs so that I can choose 4 subs, 2 carriers, destroyer for you (I will have no subs round 2 for your cruiser to worry about)
Round 2, we have 2 carriers, 2 destroyers, 2 cruisers, 1 battleship, 6 fighters, 2 tactical
vs
1 cruiser, 7 fighters

It’s very unfortunate some big fleet battles can’t be rolled in TripleA. I sincerely hope you don’t have any qualms with how I handled the resolution of battles here, so please let me know if you have any concerns.
India is facing essentially 0 chance of survival, Hawaii has 0 chance, and it is impossible for the Allies to take them back, so 6 victory cities achieved.
Good game, and let me know if you still want my observations through UK7 and how you want to bid for game 2!
Thanks for the game, you made me nervous a lot!
Before this game I didn’t know anything about you but who you’ve played and how you did.
You’re as classy and friendly as anyone!! I hope you’ll complete the bid for game 2 and that we can start anew soon!

No qualms from me. Now that I know how to play them by the rules, handling those large and mixed naval / air battles when subs are involved is very tricky!

Yes, it’s basically been over for a round or two, but I don’t mind giving my opponent a round or two to enjoy the dominance before conceeding (and before it gets boring).
Good game, and let me know if you still want my observations through UK7 and how you want to bid for game 2!
Thanks for the game, you made me nervous a lot!
Thanks you, I have enjoyed this game. I have learned a lot just from playing against you (e.g. use of forward islands with planes in the Pacific to threaten enemy fleets) and I will go back and look at the game again to see what else I can discover.
Your choice of a G2 and J2 DOW was interesting, I don’t often face those combined so I’d like to hear if that was pre-meditated or triggered by the situation on the game board. Please send me any feedback you have on my play, any opportunity to improve my knowledge of the game is gratefully received.

Thanks for the compliment! I have enjoyed playing and testing myself A&A royalty. I have enjoyed this game, thank you patiently teaching me the correct rules. Thanks for this game Gamerman, I have enjoy the spirit in which this game has been played!
I’m happy to play again with you as the Allies, my Axis play is probably weaker than my Allies but I would like to see how you play the Allies and hopefully learn something from that. I’d be interested to see how you play with your +44 bid, but if you want to take my bid/placement then that is fine with me. I leave it up to you, feel free to set up you bid whenever you want to start.

Great, very good, thanks for making me feel good again.
Oysteilo thinks we’ll be done by 12/31, so as things unfold maybe we will find we don’t need to think about an end date at all
I will type up my observations soon, and will answer about J2/G2. It is interesting because I think that combination is normal

And I am very happy you and your opponents will play the game more accurately - the correct resolution of fleet combats is its own joy in the game.
Don’t just rely on the battle calc. You could really fool an opponent who is relying blindly on the battle calc some day.
It is not hard to imagine a game-winning battle due to fleet battle complexities.There are various strategies within fleet combat you can enjoy, so it is important to understand those rules for greater enjoyment of a game you spend many hours on

OK… it is pick on Badger time
I don’t have that many things, you did a lot very well.
You’ve played 57 games across all 3 versions since 2021, so you have much more recent experience than I
I’m just an old veteran, coming back in 2022 and only 15 games since then.So you learned the first commandment of A&A play a long time ago. Thou shalt not blunder.
Anyone who doesn’t blunder is hard to beat.
