What odds battle would you take to win the game?

I think I’d just look at the data afterwards and get rid of any funny data.

NP.  Actually thought it was an abbreviation issue…

I will have it posted tonight.

Abattlemap 0.79f is a mapping utility for axis and allies.  It’s basically a map of the board with moveable pieces.

@CrazyStraw:

Howdy.

I hadn’t weighed in on this thread, but I just got a story to tell.

Yesterday I played a game against a good player.  It was time-limited.

No joke, in a 5 round game I built 9tra 1car with Germany.

And it WON the game for me!

It was ridiculous!

It was absurd!

It was outrageous!

It was sublime…

So German boats can be good.  That would have been excessive in 99% of the games I’ve played, but yesterday it was exactly enough to get the job done.  Simple lesson: the Baltic is important.

I begin to see the value in LL / No Luck games and in non-time limited games.

My entire strategies in my tournament game had to change because of a time limit.  It caused a waste of two turns because I forgot to take into account that there was a time limit in each round.  (not a round limit, that would have been easy to work with, but a time limit.)

needless to say, I’m never making that mistake again!

Just keep talking, keep a timer if need be, and remember you can pass notes in study hall if need be…

Is it more popular to play with 5 players or just have one person be the axis and one the allies.  At the end of the game once one side is completely destroyed, do you play world domination.  My friends and I on Saturdays when we have hours to sit and play continue the game once one side is destroyed and play every man for himself, it definitely makes the game more interesting while you are mopping up the decimated side.
