barnee vs VictoryFirst EXP Boxes Game 3

@barnee

Lol I’ve also reached the max 😂

Yeah the capture of Moscow was less lethal than I thought. You really needed to roll super well, so that you could take it with enough stuff so that I couldn’t recapture.

I think the frequent poor dice for Japan played a big role in the defeat of the Axis. Like that +10 and +6 for the Americans was just insane. I believe you still had a way to come back after that defeat in SZ 6. If you spent that turn all money on navy and bought 4 DD and 2 CA, instead of just 2 CA, I would only have had a 30% for my second attack on SZ 6, which I would probably not have done. Then a considerable part of your navy would survive, and then I am not so sure the game would end in an Allied victory. The Allies would be caught up with Japan for several more rounds, which means Germany would have all the opportunity to make a big attack against the Russians.

Yeah this is my first victory! I REALLY enjoyed this game! It’s just indescribable in words how cool of an experience it is to play this game. The “dopamine hit” when playing is unmatched by any other version of A&A. Each theater has been a tense fight. Egypt and the Middle East have been under pressure during the whole game. I’ve been constantly scratching my head about what best to do with the Russians, to slow down the Germans as much as possible, and also to be sure Moscow doesn’t fall. At some point, I had a dilemma with the US whether to continue the pressure against Japan or take it down a bit and start dealing with the U-boat threat, which is always a very tough decision. And during the Moscow battle, I was sweating!

Thank you very much for playing, and I am looking forward to the rematch :)
