G40 league cow vs erwinrommel (allies+15)

  • '12

    there is more than 1 way to play the axis effectively cow problem is you don’t know any of them

  • '12

    I’m not sure though which is weaker your axis or your allied play?

  • '12

    I was thinking you’re axis play wasn’t quite as bad as you’r allied play but now I’m not so sure

  • TripleA

    Unlike you I play for VCs and I do not assume my opponent is going to make a blunder. You do the same thing every time with the axis. Unlike you the people I play know what they are doing with the allies. Unlike you I know how to climb out of a bad spot.

    yeah I pray to the dice gods baby  :lol:  but when you get mediocre dice like you have in this game you get walked all over

  • TripleA

    It is only round 2. Europe looks bad and the Pacific looks nice.  Guess what half of the board I will be playing in our game?

  • TripleA

    I probably should not have opened with southern france. It is a legit opener though, just a little added risk.

  • TripleA

    I do not think Europe is over, I just might be delayed a bit is all. Europe is not over yet. Still some battles up ahead.

  • '12

    Cow I will grant you this… when your dice are white hot you can be dangerous but if theyre not you are just run of the mill.  Sorry gotta tell it like it is.

  • TripleA

    you will always need some favorable dice. You can’t win a game without hitting, duh.

  • TripleA

    You act like this game is over, it is not. I had too ambitious of a start and it flopped, it is in the range of expected outcomes, I am okay with it.

  • '12

    We will see cowbells we will see.  We all know how legendary your dice can be so I guess ya never know.

    Gave it a last ditch effort for Egypt and I was blown away! I was thinking I could bail the armor out if it did not luck out there, lol.

    That is fine, I just go to push Germany toward Russia to attack. Italy flopped out this game 3:8)
