S04 - Gamerman (allies) vs Yoshi (axis) ; +8 bid : 1inf, 1tnk egy

@DoManMacgee well, once again we have a starting problem, like I do on almost all my games. I have done all the diagnostics that Victory First has suggested. These include capitalizing my email, and name… putting the name of our game and several others.

and yet, the test works

There are too many variables, it is like trying to break into a safe just to play.

I will see if he can help

@VictoryFirst said in 2025 Classic tournament round 1 Gamerman01 v VictoryFirst (Axis):

in the end it worked out beautifully.

I had lucky results in China J1, and again against the Japanese battleships and loaded carrier off French Indo China

The Japanese fleet was more important than normal because only one factory was built

Very gracious, thank you!

@Martin Yes the “miss” on my part was using Japan’s bomber offensively when it could have at least NCM’d from Manchuria -> Germany to give one more HP to the units there. That might have made some level of difference in the final fight but in hindsight, once the UK air got as many kills as it did it was unlikely that Germany was going to survive.

Good luck to you as well!

@VictoryFirst Thank you, done!

@leemorrison I am ready to start our game when you are. PM me your opening bid if you are ready.
