BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)

farmboy

@farmboy so my inf missed and it is round two. I will roll one dice for the tac, then one dice for the fig, than one dice for 2 inf, and then one dice for your inf.

farmboy

@farmboy A tac hit and your inf missed so I will edit after. Obviously, you can say no to this as it was my error. In which case, I would just retreat the air and leave it at that.

see the comments below re an edit I made. As I noted before, I forgot to send 2 inf along with my air into holland and so used in game dice to fix that.

gamerman01

Happens to the best of us - sure it’s OK that you made the fix to take 2 infantry in

Thanks for the compliment,
To avoid helping you I can’t say much of anything right now, except that you won’t go away! And Axis is your weak side?!

looney tunes friends

farmboy

@gamerman01 thanks! I figured it would be okay but don’t want to assume.

Remember how you smoked me a year ago with axis? I’ve been trying to play axis much more carefully than I often do (keeping to one game and slowing it down a bit). And I think I still lucked out here that the first Bryansk battle went as well as it did.

gamerman01

That (Bryansk) might explain some of my difficulty, it’s hard to tell how much. Then there was the reprise, too.

Yes I do remember our first game. I recall going back to it months ago because of your success on the boards and I didn’t know why it went so well.
Mainly it was that you had poor early dice.

gamerman01

It was just that 2/3 AA that realllly hurt

farmboy

@gamerman01 A lot of my success has been with allies. Of course a lot of the skill transfers to the other side. But I think when I played you before (or ghostglider -I lost badly to him with axis around the same time), I felt like I needed to get some practice with the axis.

I thought in those games, because I was out of practice, that I ended up playing in too much of a scripted way, and then tried to hit every target. As a result, I got stuck before I got Bryansk and so effectively lost the games early.

I’ve been trying to apply those lessons here. I made a point of making sure I could get the position I think Germany needs to get (mainly getting through Bryansk) and then still ended up relying on a bit of dice luck.

gamerman01

I guess it could have been over for you with poor dice on the first attempt to slide by my Moscow, but it didn’t happen and I’m having a whale of a time even though I’ve “brought it” - trying to figure out why I’m not 50 points ahead (2016 USA national politics reference) 😝

@farmboy it looks like I was a bit lucky there and that the TUV exchange after the US turn was exactly 0.

gamerman01

I assume you allow the sub to flee 97, I forgot before ending combat movement phase and Triple A prompted me

Fighters are necessarily on same carriers in 110

Things are getting tense at the Allied conference. Stalin demands tanks and planes from his Allies, Churchill is crying out for US aid in the Atlantic, and the USA ignores them all, consumed with those damn Japs. And losses are heavy.

@gamerman01 absolutely re the sub fleeing

gamerman01

We can only hope that Hitler is storming around his room screaming that they couldn’t hold Stalingrad for even one round.

gamerman01

Churchill says “we can’t even fill our transports”!
Cunningham says, “shut up, the Germans put out subs and dive bombers, we have to keep those transports afloat, you daft man”

I meant to ask. I do follow American politics (its hard not too since it tends to impact the rest of the world including those of us next door in Canada) but didn’t get the 2016 reference (beyond assuming it was either Trump, Clinton or one of the primary challengers).
