  • wow you actually hit iraq, interesting


  • @axis-dominion In round 1 (when you add the bombardment) the trade, on average, would have slightly favoured me. I figured I have little to lose at this point with the gamble and the most likely outcome was either attrition that favoured me or was at least close to even. The dice decided otherwise. as I hit 5 below and you hit 2 above.


  • it’s much worse than that tho, you’re about to lose your entire navy, something which you can’t afford… that was your only euro navy basically. at this point euro axis will completely dominate the waters and air. japan can easily afford to lose that particular fleet and still be totally fine in the pac


  • i did give you slight odds on india shud you have attacked afghan with the US but i figured the price of giving me a ton of free units and territories would outweigh a loss in india. that was my gambit for the game


  • well, i’m about to make this game even more interesting lol


  • @axis-dominion yeah, I was setting up for that as an option, but it wasn’t going to be worth it unless I had near 100% odds. I had contemplated stacking W India with the rest of the UK units and forcing my way back there, but didn’t like giving Germany such a free hand in the middle east.

    And yes, I hate to lose the navy


  • sorry, i paused this to complete my turn in adam’s game. back to this

  • @axis-dominion Part of me wants to see the outcome of any number of battles next turn Persia, Greece, Sz80, potentially Gibraltar, and SZ33, but better I concede here. I’ve been losing for a while and getting more desperate. Thanks for the fun game!

    yah good call, this game was downhill for you but that failed attack on iraq sealed it. you’d only prolong the inevitable. i wouldn’t even need to take any significant risks, just conquer egypt, mop up all navy west of the pacific/india, and just control the game from there.

    i think you made one too many sacrifices that ultimately didn’t pay out.

    allies are very tough! i too am struggling vs adam’s axis.

    anyway, good game! i’m up for a rematch any time.


  • @axis-dominion I’ll be up for another in a bit. I need to recover and I owe a couple of games too. I’ve generally gotten a lot better at playing more patient and avoiding trying to force things with sacrifices. But you and Adam always force me to play desperate and these bad habits reemerge.
