Interesting. My very first D-Day game was as the Germans against TGC and he was already 30+ games in I think. Yet I still managed to win. So I’ll be shocked if this game is not imbalanced in favor of Germany. I’ll keep a close eye on you guys’ game.

@VictoryFirst No worries. Yesterday was a holiday in the US so I did that have the time or enthusiasm to jump into another game immediately.

@VictoryFirst said in VF (Germany) vs. DoMan (Allies) | Original Europe, Game 1:

I didn’t know your exact strategy before this game, during the game I realized I could afford to build one more round of tanks without Berlin becoming in danger.

I think with the balance this strategy might have some more success, as long as you put a little more money into attacking Berlin as well.

TGC and I discussed this same potential weakness (Germany builds the extra round of Tanks because Berlin is not in danger) in the strategy last week when I initially rolled it out so I assumed he’d shared my concerns with you as well. I am going to spend some time thinking about ways to strike a better balance of force distribution and get back to you. I am not very good at making major innovations on the fly, unfortunately.
