ABH vs Innocentbystander G40


  • I screwed up Germany’s turn massively.  I meant to advance the infantry from Germany into Poland.  Oh well.  Live and learn.  Was too focused on birthday stuff.  This is what happens when you don’t concentrate.

    I invaded Russia with Japan and activated Mongolia.  So I need to crush the Soviets (or at least make them real small) before the US can get in the game.  The race is on.

    And of course, you rolled awesome in Yunan.

  • The post summary function didn’t work for the US.  I bought 2 carriers, two subs, and a destroyer.  Nothing unusual happened for the UK.  I won the battle in the Med and in Africa.  I assumed that you wouldn’t want to scramble Italy since I had overwhelming forces in the battle.  Let me know if you had wanted to do that differently.

    This could be a tough game for the Germans since they already lost so many planes, the fleet is gone, and UK just needs a carrier to complete an adequate Atlantic fleet.  I personally never do a German or Japanese attack on Russia on turn 1.

  • You managed to hit with every single roll.  Some times life is that way…

    Sometimes.  Yes.  After English Channel when you hit all 4 on 4s in the second round (wiping me out) I needed to catch a break with Italy.

    That “helps.”


  • I am glad that dice are part of the game.  It makes each one so different and fores players to learn different strategies to deal with certain initial turns.  This weekend I played one where the German air force was mostly destroyed during the first two turns and I had to win the game as Japan.  I was lucky that Russia was too conservative, allowing Germany the luxury of not worrying about possible counter attacks.

    Yes dice as part of this game makes it interesting.  Your two French boats both hit.  Were it not for my “build” there would be no Italian airplanes.
