2017 LEAGUE TITLE FINAL. JDOW (Allies+13) vs JuanSpain. BM3

Here we go.

An honour for me being part of the last game of the tournament given the quality of the players in this forum.

Hope providing an interesting and fun game for the audience.

A real challenge against a bid +13 for allies in BM and vs a player like JDOW, who just won vs a fantastic Axis player with a lower bid.

JDOW takes inf Yunnan and Fighter Moscow.

Have fun and good luck!

Juan

@oysteilo:

will be fun to watch! I am surprised by the choice of a Soviet fighter by JDOW

good luck to both of you!

Many thanks Sir!

I think I see his point with that bid and think is a good strategy.

@BSD:

Dang, curious to see a 13 bid on BM3.  Is the game really that favored for Axis even after BM?

It is not, in fact I think it favours the Allies long term, but both JDOW and I know that I play better with Axis side.

My chances are below 50% with this bid, but would be below 30% with +14 for me I believe. JDOW is the favourite in any case but I will try presenting a good battle here gentlemen.

Scramble 110?
