JEB (Axis) vs. Geograph (Allies+9), 1942.2

[Geograph]

You guess right! Thats a real killer!  :-o
I didn’t realize that your bombers can reach the canadian coast.
Counting to three is not so easy  :x

I hope you agree with my decission to keep your bomber in Evenki. Otherwise retreating to Archangel would have been an option for me.

Ouch! This battle is lasting to long! Last round I forgot to move the entire british fleet (not that it is that big…)
But at least it resulted in a strong destroyers defense  :-D

If you’re attacking Russia, please save the UK bomber and 3 of the AAGuns.

I think that’s it!
Even if the US gloriously captured France there is no chance to turn the tide again.

After 27 Rounds and a real epic battle I have to concede  :-(

Well played! I couldn’t get a grip on you.
And I’m happy that this wasn’t our tournament final  :wink:

I think it is! That was epic, very much back and forth for a long time.

I think we can conclude from our two games that the Axis are indeed stronger on this map and that bid higher than 10 is in order to make the game balanced ;)

I got some wins with the Allies in the tournament, giving me false confidence that I could go lower with the Allies. That was my mistake against you. That being said, I think you did a much better job in the final, finishing me off in 9 rounds or so. Better than 27 for sure!

Well played you too and thank you for this game.

I agree. Axis are definitely stronger on this map!

In this game the 9 IPC wasn’t enough for me, but I think 27 Rounds is a sign for a pretty good balanced game  :-D
