13L G40 Boldfresh vs. Jeff28 (Allies +11)

[Jeff28]

That’s pretty much my argument in a nutshell.

I imagine I can’t win as ethics and sportsmanship aren’t required.

[DarthMaximus]

This game got out of hand.

Just so you guys know I’ve never played a whole game of G40 and have only played a grand total of one Germany turn maybe a year ago.  Although this looks more like a dispute over process rather than a rules breach (if I read the last few pages correctly).  I could probably rule on that.  But first
Jen usually takes care of all G40 league issues.  So I’m going to ask her to check in on it just in case she already has standing order in these types of disputes.

Locked for now.

[Jennifer]

In regards to the abysmal showing and the agreement on page 17 of this thread:

1. If the battle had been played legally, and this is just for future reference, those units that could make it to battle legally would be the only units used, and they would be required to engage in at least one round of combat.
2. As per league rules, you two made a deal to account for the discrepency, from what I read you were both content with it, so the matter is considered a legal move in that specific instance. 
   Therefore, I am not going to use this instance to influence my decision.

In regards to the axis/ally naval engagement that is the latest hiccup:

1. Can-opening is a legal tactic in AAG40.  Further, I would consider can-opening to not only be legal, but to be integral to how the game is played!
2. No one is alleging that the pieces engaged in the battle:
   2a) Cannot make it to the battle    OR
   2b) Were inaccurately displayed on the map.
   Therefore, I assume this is a legal engagement where one player made a disasterous mistake and it was caught by the other player.
3. This is a league game.  League games and Tournament games I call “for profit” games as you may achieve some gain by engaging in them.  Specifically, fame here.

That said, had this been a game for fun, where two players were just playing to play, I would tell you both to get the heck over it, shake hands, give Boldfresh a gentleman’s win, but reset the game back to America’s non-combat movement turn and continue play.  Unfortunately, this is a game for profit, so I have to say either hope the dice are REALLY good to the Americans, or forfeit.  Sorry to be a royal b!tch about it, and I hope there are no hard feelings, but a decision has to be made.

Please let me know within 72 hours what your decision is (play on as the board is, or forfeit the game/he forfeited the game.)

[boldfresh]

i wish to continue the game if presented with these choices.  i truly feel like this game is still very much in the balance.

jeff, what do you say?

cheers

[boldfresh]

well Jeff I guess I will go ahead and post the German turn?

[boldfresh]

well I guess I will wait to 72 hours from Jen’s comments

[boldfresh]

just lost a game to karl because i carelessly overlooked gibraltar.  attacked it with the
italians but he hit and i didn’t take the territory.  then on the german turn, i moved
too fast and totally forgot about needing to WALK in to gibraltar with a single german
infantry.

so then karl basically walked into rome with the USA.

them are the breaks!  gibraltar and the proper handling of that area is a huge part of
this game, bottom line.

[Jeff28]

Slammed with 2 big projects at work. Will probably be afk until this weekend.

Thanks,

and that, my dear boy, is why you should never quit before a big battle is rolled.   actually both gibraltar AND z91 went terribly for the axis so you should easily win it from here.  curse of the clever strikes me again…  :lol:

[boldfresh]

if that battle hadn’t skewed so badly for the allies, i would have had an
impenetrable fleet in z91.

hold on need to edit the landing spot of the japanese, 3 ftrs are to land in gib.

[boldfresh]

that’s why the dice have to be rolled.  8-)

[boldfresh]

oh and i made a mistake anyway, i thought you had 1 ftr and 2 tacs in french west africa - i missed the little white 7 by the american ftr.  :lol:

you will have this one in the end jeff, don’t worry.

[boldfresh]

if the calculator is right, i was supposed to come out of that
battle with about 24 units and i came out with 12.  soooo typical
for me… :lol:

[boldfresh]
