VF may have already cracked this for Axis’s side of the house in the game I have Vs. him currently. Need to see what he ends up doing on his turn though.

Don’t forget to account for the dice spread, especially on the first turn.

end of round 1 dice results, Germany:
East Front: +0.78
Atlantic: -0.08
Med/Africa: -0.33Net: +0.37 Germany: ladies and gentlemen - the most perfectly balanced opener.
-
@The_Good_Captain You’re overthinking it. VF literally just built one more wave of tanks and that pushed things right back to 99% Germany.

@The_Good_Captain said in TGC (Germany) vs Doman (Allies) Europe, oob:
most perfectly
Heh heh they say this is incorrect, but still happy you finally got a normal opener and not one that was -10 for one side! 😁

Okay the extra wave of tanks makes perfect sense. Thanks to @VictoryFirst for countering that but I’m going to double down. I’m ecstatic to see +0.37 Germany. I’m so happy. I will copy @VictoryFirst extra wave of tanks to be sure or you can try something else now that you know what’s coming.
You guys are proper opponents and exceptional players, cheers! So awesome to just blast through all this stuff so quick! Very clever!

@The_Good_Captain Just as a heads-up I am not likely going to have any meaningful response at the moment. Now that the goalposts have shifted from defending against a G6 attack -> defending against a G7 (and beyond) attack I am more or less going to need to go back to the drawing board on the Allied side of the house.

That’s fine. I’m going to start cutting videos. I always discuss balance last so we have time.
