Hey Jeff,

I think you might enjoy this thread. http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=20330.90
When I was searching for it, I noticed that you had started a thread asking about tech, yourself, about 2 years ago.

I am just starting a 2nd game with Allweneedislove.  I ripped off 3 consecutive techs for $5 with America (shipyards, jets, and heavy bombers) on rounds 3, 4, and 5 I think it was.  Then I went and got a land tech, improved mech, with the UK (mostly useless, but then my odds of the all-powerful rockets or paratroopers were increased)

Guess what?  Even though Allweneed didn’t spend one red cent on tech and I hit him with a barrage, he wants to play the 2nd game with tech also.  He is that convinced it’s a waste of money.

Like you said, no more tech for you.  That’s understandable.  If you don’t want your opponent to get a tech that can hurt you the most when you least expect it, well, the only way to avoid that is to play no tech.

This game has an infinite number of possibilities WITHOUT tech.  I play it because it’s fun, and more options is better and more fun in my opinion.

Anyway, I think you will enjoy the read.  :-)

Was pleasantly surprised that you made the Italian move already.

Is Germany forthcoming?
I did complete ANZ and <chuckle>France
Didn’t want you to miss that with the posts that have been made since……

TTYL</chuckle>

Why didn’t you ask if I wanted to intercept on the SBR??

@Jeff28:

You would really want to scramble a fig vs. 2 bombers? Seemed like a no-brainer pass.

I can re-do the battle here if you want. I guess I should have asked but assumed you’d rather me move as I’ve been slow to respond.

–Jeff

I’m not upset - just surprised.  Don’t worry about it this time, just please be more conservative with future assumptions - thanks

@Jeff28:

What do airborne forces do?

They are paratroopers.

You can send 1 or 2 infantry at any territory within 3 spaces of an airbase that you are attacking with at least one other ground unit.  They are subject to AA fire.
