AAE40 Alpha 2+ jim010 vs Axisplaya

Yes, let’s go again. I am going finish off calculating the statistics of this game and fire away the G1. I think I’d like to play two or three more games as Germany, after which I’d like to switch sides.

GG, the Leningrad mistake wasn’t enough to turn the tides, but it was enough to turn my stomach of laughter! 😂

@AndrewAAGamer

I can follow and agree with your reasoning everywhere, except here.

@AndrewAAGamer said in AndrewAAgamer (Allies) vs. Germany (Ragnell804):

Thus, without those 6 extra units there would be only 7 German units on the board which means the Allies would have won.

That’s a massive assumption. Why so certain of this? Ragnell pointed out he adapted his German strategy to this game, knowing the Allies had an “outlier” on Omaha Beach. Therefore because of his experience, he knew the Germans could afford to be more aggressive than usual and still prevent the Allied win, resulting in the low Axis piece count in the end.

If this outlier didn’t happen, the Axis would have played more defensively, trading space for time and keeping the option open of making an attack on one of the victory cities with the goal of contesting it on the very last turn with decent chances, which is part of the reason why I think this game is imbalanced in favor of the Axis.

So therefore I think it’s wrong to say D-Day is balanced after just one game. I’ll believe you once you’ve played at least 10 games and managed to win 3 or more as the Allies. I am happy to present myself as an opponent.
