Sorry for delay. This is such a complicated map. Scramble to Bry from Kur/Rus?
-
sorry, im actually going to change purchase to purchase nothing.
-
otherwise same move.
-
oh wow, how interesting, I don’t remember why I gave you slightly over 50% odds on that attack, it’s been so long :)
my guess is perhaps I miscalculated or forgot to send more support during US/UK.
oh well, let’s go ahead and do full scramble, all fighters and max defense
-
Yeah who knows at this point.
I don’t like doing an attack like this but I cant come up with anything better. Europe was already ugly and if I dont get to Bry this turn I dont think I ever will, and so I think Europe is done. Pacific is obviously in better shape but I dont think I can blitz for a win so I think I have to go for this. And unfortunately, I also think you had no choice but to scramble.
Can’t roll till later. Do you want round by round casualties or can I assume AA, UK air, Russian air. Italy has to take it with ground, otherwise french can fly there to prevent blitz.

ok gg, bad rolls lol

now finished my second game and I still am having mixed feelings about PTV, I think it may be crossing that fine threshold between being an advanced version with lots of strategic options and being too big and complex. if I am to be honest, I’m finding myself getting very impatient and wanting to take a large swing as soon as it’s offered, that’s now twice almost same situation, and twice it backfired hard and I lost. normally in global I wouldn’t do that kind of thing, taking those odds like that. and both games I was winning as allies, or at least quite ahead economically and felt good about my position.
I feel like this map can lead to a lot of long-term grinding, which I believe was something Andrew gamer was expressing about bm3, except that this one more so than bm3. idk… how about you, how do you feel?
-
ha, looks like very bad rolls. I figured I didnt have any better options and even if you won, I might be ok just because your forces would be depleted. But I was done with this game anyway.
I wanted to see what happened with a southern attack in europe. I dont think it works without a g1 ground purchase. If g1 naval build, I think germany has to go north. I had a small chance but not a very good one, but then a forgotten move or two completely ruined the push.
In the pac, I think going after Australia is a risky move. I think its solid if US goes light in pacific but I think if US balances the two theaters, its not the greatest move. In this game, with better dice in NSW I think you were hosed in pacific.
Ive been really busy and this game requires more thought, but I do like it. But now isnt the time for it for me. Ill probably put P2V on hold for a bit.
-
Yah same here, I’ve been busier as well and also exploring a lot of new BoardGames. So I think I’ll stick with bm for a while and anyway, they are still working it out and refining it. I think I’m just not a big fan of the current carrier scrambling rules. I’d much prefer to see them nerfed. I gave some suggestions let’s see if anything comes of that.

this being only my second game, I am not sure. Its definitely Global on steroids, but thats ok I think. I used to love Anniversary, and then global came out which was super complex and fun. But its complexity made it a different game with a different level of commitment. This amps it up a bit more.
I like that its different and engages me in new ways. but definitely the thought of a 30 round game with this level of complexity feels a bit much. I think 15-20 is the sweet spot for me. But perhaps this isnt that different, just takes some getting used to.
