GARGANTUA'S $200 TOURNAMENT OF EXTRA DEATH AND PAIN (TripleA Only) 2xELIMINATION

  • TripleA

    I don’t see russia surviving much these days. Most players race now.

  • TripleA

    I mean you can take russia as early as G5 if you bomb it with japan on J3 and then suicide all your japan air on J4 to kill as many russian inf as possible so germany can attack it G5.

    Holding russia is tricky now. I mean especially now that the whole russian income africa thing is being exploited… axis players push for earlier takedowns of russia. so allies have to either A) fly a bunch of air in sooner B) race the pacific.

    just a thought, but what do anzac and russia have in common?  i don’t mind splitting them up by theater

    ie: usa/china/anzac and russia/france/uk

    anyway, w/e, pm me what your strategy is going to be

  • TripleA

    your lack of attack freightens me… so I gave you countries that relax. lol.

    how many times do i have repeat that the game we just played is my FIRST game of global, and first of alpha

    my goal was simply not to screw anything up too badly

    you don’t ask a new player to do some crazy gamble that only you and a few other players have ever tried….


  • I’d just like to say that I officially love this tournament…

    I think Cow and Veq hate each other more than some of thier opponents lol… :P

  • TripleA

    I don’t think of attacking vcs / capitals as gambling… the whole point of an objective is for one player to try to defend it and the other to try to attack it.

    People say I play hyper aggressive. Especially for global, nothing is worse than a global game that never ends. Someone has to do the attacking.

  • TripleA

    just relax we got this. I just like games to have action is all.

    I played a F2F game this weekend against some new opponents.

    “we got this”

    Was what they kept saying, right up until a turn before the end of the game.

    by the completion of my last German turn, Russia was reduced to moscow alone, with about only 20 units, and there were only 2 allied surfaces on the entire board.  Facing off against considerable Italian and German Navies and air power.

    “We got this” turned into “He got us”

  • TripleA

    who the hell needs russia to win a game?

  • TripleA

    Russia should be dead by round 8 (unless germany did sea lion). Saving russia is impossibru. Allies have to keep medit sea / africa and do strong pacific play. Russia should die, maybe fly fighters from hollywood -> japan -> mid china -> russia.  That crap only works if germany doesn’t have another wave of reinforcements to add on. No one falls for that crap anymore. Russia dies, everytime (except when it gets INCREDIBRU Lucky!)

  • TripleA

    OH I see what you want me to do. You don’t want me to go KJF, you want me to go rome gambit with usa. I SEE HOW IT IS! The only thing rome gambit ever did was make germany fly air to rome and as soon as I have to start pumping in the pacific, I just wildly attack west germany or italy. FINE THEN!

    Eskander, consider youself the unofficial bracket editer, if more randomization is required, or if it needs updating, and I haven’t done it yet.

    Official Brother!

    Swapped the LS26/LS27 to prevent early rematches.  Updated bracket with new game results while I was at it for the hell of it.

    This doesn’t mean you can now be lazy, Garg.

    I suppose I should actually attach the bracket instead of disseminating by psychic broadcast.
