Woah. I wish I had Allied opponents like these. I would give them better and more advice about what to do (especially for the key Allies USA player!) so they actually come back to play next time (6 Round KO, ugh)! Maybe you should point them in the direction of the forum games here so they can cut their teeth and learn the rules first, eh? Sucks to play a boardgame in real life and you don’t know what the hell you are doing. I don’t like being told what to do either but since A+A is so damn long its sometimes easier to take advice from a vet player.
How did the Soviets get into Greece and S. Europe with all the forces you had positioned as the Germans? At least the Russian player had some inkling as what to do in AAG40. Let him play the US next time.
I see by your comments that you have a fast knowledge of AA. Oops, wait a moment did you say the Russian player had some inkling as to what to do? Any rookie can see that the Russians are doomed in my photos. Oh, by the way you did mention the Soviets in southern Europe. Did you ever hear of the old suction game? The Russians have put 3 tanks in harms way. (18 IPCs) They would be destroyed in round seven with little loss to the Germans. (the tank that was in Greece has already been eliminated) Three less tanks to defend Moscow. Except the allies surrendered in round six. All the allies were played by the same player and he was sharp enough to see the game was lost. Oh well, I guess even players with a vast knowledge of AA can miss a few things.
LOL you are quite the funny man. At least the Russians were attacking and taking territory rather than just dying like flies like the other Allies; how did you let them into S. Europe in the first place? A good German player should never let the Soviets in the door like that, a capable Russian player could have gotten his bonus NOs if he stopped your initial invasion forces, plus its obvious from the photos that you were playing an unseasoned and beginner skill level player. You’re right in that he left 3 armor units exposed without infantry support, he should of known better about infantry push and keeping your core units alive, he doesn’t know, a newbie opponent. You ought to have helped him out or at least offered him some advice on what to do, if he comes back to play again at all. For all he knows he just wasted a day of his life trying to learn an uncomprehensible game you were destined to win no matter what he tried. I say again, point him to the A and A forums so he can learn the game from people who won’t just kick him mercilessly over and over again and might teach him a few things about the game, so he’ll feel like sticking with it.
Yes, it is good to crow about victories on the A and A forums, but it is not appropriate to spout off about slaughters where your opponent obviously hadn’t had any game experience and no coherent game strategy. That was not a good game, sir, good games come from opponents with set strategies and know the odds before going into battles; your game was a slaughter against someone who was learning as they go. No UK player in his right mind would have left a fleet stranded in the middle of the Atlantic out of range of a Naval Base (considering they start with so many), plus no US player worth his salt would have built so many transports without naval support and left it in range of an Axis-controlled Gibraltar. I might even ask where the hell are YOUR transports as Germany to pursue a Sealion attack, since the UK is guarded by a mere handful of land units. The map I am looking at now even has the UK with an exposed Strat Bomber in Iraq, c’mon, you weren’t facing a real opponent at all. You didn’t win a game, the Axis victory was already foretold before you even started.
If you wish to back up your claim about how you’re a master uber grandmaster strategic mastermind wonderchild worldmasterminduberstrategicplannerdominatormasterthatisneverdefeated, send me a PM. Let’s try out a new game on the forums, Alpha + .2. You might win with the dice, but I doubt that will be all there is to it.
