Thank you, that actually helped a lot. We had a general idea of the subs ability to submerge unless facing destroyers, but that got a little confusing when it came to combined arms. Your comment about dice actually sorted that out. Thanks a bunch, I’m sure I’ll be back with questions about convoys, bombing, and scrambling once we play again.
Larry talks about his Global Game more

finally a Kriegsmarine to be reckoned with!

“My advice to you and any other old veterans of A&A is watch out for those automatic tactical assumptions you’ve acquired over the years. Often they will prove to be outdated. You’ll run the risk of looking like an old General fighting the new war with the strategies of the last war.”
thx calvin, i wish we still had karma cause id give you a +1
I am ready for the challege, i just got a ticket to play AAG40 at Gencon, who else is going?
I am! Which time slot are you in?
-
For global 1940, I bought tickets for the 2pm on friday and the 10am on saturday.
I will also probably be there on thursday to see if I can the get a seat at the 1pm, i didnt see the sence in paying eight more dollars if a generic will do the job, not alot of people have bought tickets for that spot.
This will be my first gencon

JPG’s are uploaded on your average camera (well Sony at least, is how they do it, but I think it’s the same.)

Hey guys! I know this is not the right place to post this, but…
Mods - can you make a new forum category for the Global game? It might make it easier that threads spread around… just a thought.
Thanks. -

the only person who can do that is djensen, and a request was made to him long ago
-
ok, thanks!

I was wondering if anyone has thoughts on what power(s) Larry was playing. In both posts he is talking about each power in the third person. He never says when I did this or that. Its the German player, or Stalin….
-
Probably doesn’t want us critiquing him on what he should and should not have done. :wink:
-
I think he might have been UK. He seams rather proud of the Java fortress strat giving Jap hell.
-
He also seemed rather proud if how well Russia was holding up.
-
Yea I thought that two, but he gave a detailed account of the historic 3 prong attack that Germany was making on the 3 Russian VC’s as well. He also seemed to be conflicted w/how Jap is doing in the Pacific. Maybe he’s playing by himself, just testing different strats (something that most of us have done). Just think he can say its for work, the rest of us just seem crazy to our families :roll:

Yes many jokes have been made at my expense for playing myself.

My bet would still be for Russia because even though he does speak well of how Germany is doing he seems to be even more proud of the fact that Russia has held out for such a long time and is still very strong.
