Varn H(Allies) Vs Crunch(Axis) G18.AAM

[Varn H]

You got me! I surrender (not much choice it seems).

<the student=“” bows=“” to=“” his=“” teacher=“” with=“” gratitude.=“”>Thanks for the game! I learned a lot and it was fun as hell. I’ve been wanting to play A&A on a regular basis for ten years, and now I seem to have found just the place to do it.

Now that I see how to play the Axis, I hope you’ll show me how to play the Allies some time. My KJF obviously needs revision, and I don’t know if I have the stomach for a KGF or not. The thought of those Japanese troops running free in the Pacific gives me heartburn.

Thanks again!</the>

Good game, you adapted very well.  Yeah, I don’t think no matter how heroic the US is that they could defend Washington for long.

I rarely play the allies and I am sure my axis game is much stronger than my allies game.  I feel and from what I understand, the axis has a slight advantage when played well against a well played allies.

KJF is also from what I understand, harder to do than a KGF.  Although a well rounded player needs to play well against all eventualities and I am more familiar with KGF than KJF.  Earlier in the game, had my last round of attacks in Sz45 not got me 3 hits to 1 things could have been very different indeed.

This is also a great place to play I find.  This game is based on timing, while I also hate the idea of the Japs running wild, the Germans are running pretty wild now.

The allied navy in the Atlantic is like a leash on Germany.  If you can get into Sz5 you threaten so much of what is important to Germany that they cannot lean forward against the Soviets like the would otherwise.  It takes England too long to get rolling without US support.
