Nice. Still looks even. Hope the Axis win!

I don’t like how much space I’m taking. I’m going to create a “Detailed Game Reports” thread and link to it from here after a quick recap.

People don’t wanna scroll through all this :) I’ll start now for the rest of this report.

Edit
Here’s a repost from post 1 of this game.

TLDR Version :)
The Allies were Victorious. The Axis invested heavily in Naval Units and while the yanks were hampered, the russians were able to take Berlin due to a lack of boots on the ground.
JPN eventually was overpowered in china.

and the final save.

@barnee

Looking good!

Really dig that shade of green for the Americans.

@The-Captain

Awesome!

@barnee

Nooo! Not the Axis losing again! Looks like you’re getting good. Yeah, it’s nice to not have to scroll though all of that. Good idea to have another thread.

@The-Captain

Very nice!

@The-Captain

Sweet ! What are the two big Tanks in Northern Iraq ?

@The-Captain ahh … so just regular Panzers then as far as gameplay ? They look badass :)

@The-Captain

Exciting! Quick, too. Gotta say, I almost forgot how nice the board looks when no chips are used and only pieces are laid out. The sheer mass in some territories is always nice to look at (guess I’m too used to TripleA).

As usual, you’ve proved yourself a master of these rules. Glad to see a game when the Axis win.
