Good game guys.
All games are now in rd 3.
All rd 3 games, lets shoot to finish by Halloween. :wink:
All players, let me know if you see consistant delays. Turns should be coming in roughly 72 hrs or less.
Also the board will be getting crowded with the G40 tourney underway.

Alright, two games down two to go.
Lets try and get those rd 3 games done soon.I’ll roll for the semi-final round.

Thanks for the reminder -
Yoshi and I have been bidding today. He just bid 9, so I have to decide which side I want. We will be starting soon.

RD (allies +12) over Zhukov, 14 rounds.

I tabulated the results of all games to see how many times Axis wins.
I excluded a few games that involved very inexperienced players, or two players that were totally mis-matched.I have Axis winning 12
Allies winning 6Axis is winning the one game currently being played, so if Yoshi wins, it will be 13-6.
League play for 2012 so far is Axis 15, Allies 5
Why are you all bidding so low for Allies? Why did I bid 8 for Allies vs. Yoshi?The statistics show you are likely to lose with Allies with a bid under 12 against a worthy opponent. The game has been out for over 3 years now. 2011 tournament and 2012 league results total 27 Axis wins to 11 Allied wins. I think we’re getting into the realm of “statistically significant”. I think it’s time to recognize we’re not going to “figure out the Allies”. It’s been 3 years. Time to admit 1941 is unbalanced in favor of the Axis. Probably about as severely as Revised was slanted towards the Allies. :-)

we should slowly move to 1942
-
Heck, why not all of us change at once?
It was my preferred version until I finally switched to 1941 in 2011 so I could participate in the league and tournament… A&A always started in 1942 until 2008… Hasn’t the novelty worn off yet? :lol
-
42 would have a higher average bid than 41. The stats for 42 were always much more unbalanced then the stats for 41. It’s still a very good game, assuming the bid is appropriate.
Both versions of aa50 favor Axis with NOs. The fact that it’s ‘unbalanced’ makes it a better game then if it was ‘balanced’. Bids add some spice and variety.
-
I think everybody agrees that axis has an advantage ; we would not bid otherwise :)
And remember, at the beginning here, people were bidding to get the allies !
If I remember well, average bid in revised was around 7-9 (but I almost did not play this scenario online, so I might be wrong). I’m not sure this was so much unbalanced.
The 41 version begins with a lot of battle - thus dices - on round 1. That makes the bid less relevent again on a particular game, since that can be totally wiped out by bad dices. But I believe something between 6 and 12 should be a good conclusion in the future (as I’m trying to predict, the interval is bigger :) ). Which would be an average / high bid according to where the conclusion leads, but still not an unbelievable gap imho.

in 1942 we dont have problems with the monster japan as we have in 1941
we should take a look at 1942
at list to put it side by side with 1941

Yes! Tired of the fantasy scenario! Down with monster Japans and pathetically weak Chinas! Func would be proud.

Is there a 1942 Battlemap Mod or Triple A module out there? I haven’t given a sniff to this game, as I have preferred 1941. I’m not going to give it up just like that, but I would like to take a look at it.
Is there also a forum on these boards somewhere for 1942?

Yes TDJ, there is a '42 version on battlemap. When you click on start a new map, you will see '41 listed as the 7th map down the list. '42 is right below it.
