My Partner is correct. Going back to Turn 13 and 14 there were two fighters on US carriers and 2 fighters on ANZAC carriers and no mention of moving the ANZAC carrier planes to a US carrier on Anzac 14. We will adjust.

That’s ok. Our bad.

No, wait, I disagree partly. In turn 13 it’s very clear that 3 ANZAC-fighters were on the US-fleet before the ANZAC-carrier moved to z55. Then after the carrier moved 1 fig moved in from Queensland.

It’s the client that messed up, since it doesn’t keep track of landings.

Although all 4 figs were supposed to be on US-ac’s, it’s acceptable according to the history that only 3 were.

I looked it over and agree. At the end of turn 13 you clearly had 3 ANZAC fighters on US carriers. The client did mess that up when you moved. However during turn 14 since the client messed up the fighter placement when you moved to sz 33 it should of contained 3 ANZAC fighters. It did not and left two fighters in sz 55 which you moved to India. One of those fighters should of been in sz 33. So before ANZAC goes the correct edit is to remove one ANZAC fighter from India and place it in sz 55. Going forward as of the start of ANZACs turn 15 there are 3 ANZAC fighters on US carriers in sz 55. Lets please try and keep better track of that going forward. Thanks.

@simon33 said in League General Discussion Thread:

Not just a league question but why does everyone hate the combat move first idea? Ever time I have to reload because I’ve put in the wrong buy I find it really irritating. Enough that it really reduces my enjoyment of playing the game. Why do you players like this idea? In 1.10, you’ll be able to post from the Purchase phase so will that resolve the annoyances with this idea?

Or is it the repair, plunder or CV purchase bugs? I’m guessing that it’s none of those things. Just that it’s different to the way it’s always been.

For me its two reasons. First you are changing the order of the turn phases and thus rearranging the game dynamics. (which I assume the game designer intended to be a certain way, but I could be wrong) I always look at these types of things as if it were a game board set up between two people. With CM first it seems like a dry run at your turn and then you purchase to fill in the holes. Which when sitting at a game board seems quite contrary to the rules and the specific turn phases. I guess I’m concrete and a rules stickler, I am pretty adamant about following the turn phases proprely and not mixing things around. (Always got in arguments with my bro when he would complete his turn in one continuous flow instead of following the run phases lol) For me this applies only to the board game set up. I am much more relaxed when it come to online play.
And secondly I just don’t think that way when playing the game. I have a specific mental routine for each turn. I can see the attacks I want to make. I see what things I want to accomplish in 2-3 turns. I plan for possible opponent moves and I buy accordingly. It gets me all confused if I start moving peices around to attack first. Just my style. I have no problem playing someone online who wants to CM first as long as I can play traditional. As for a face to face that would be a different story…

@aequitas-et-veritas said in Alternated route game majikforce (L+12) vs AetV (X):

@majikforce not much I can do about in this one.

I think it made as you said a difference to an degree in capturing Moscow early, but I would also say that you played the Alternative Route Game slightly differently then the League one.

One was with the information you got. The intel gave you a brighter view of things to possibly come.

Secondly you played the ARG a bit more aggressively I think.

Never the less I admire you as a very competend League Player wish I love to play against.

Hopefully we can do another one this season soon (with the dice on my side).

Yes this was the route I had hoped for had Moscow not fallen earlier than I expected. It was nice to play this game along with our league game kind of like having a crystal ball LOL! As much as I complain about dice I do enjoy our games.

@Pejon_88 @trulpen @AndrewAAGamer Excellent analysis. I came up with the same movement error although I failed to look at the implications for Japan. An even more important reason to call out shared allied fleet capacities.

Gamerman,
Please do not count this as a win or loss please. AD had to concede due to life circumstances and I will not take a win for that. He is too good of a player for it to end like that. Thanks.

@Panther Worked for me as well. Thanks a bunch Panther!!!

@trulpen @Pejon_88 No worries. His health is of the upmost importance. Thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery!

@wizmark said in Wizmark (X +6) vs Samuel06 (L) BM3 G3:

@samuel06 Am seriously thinking about playing low luck games only! Never seen the North Sea fleet have no damage at all…:angry:

Noooooooo! Do not turn to the dark side. LL is evil!!:wink:

@Adam514 I don’t think the issue is that it’s not logical. It is and makes sense to me now that I know. The problem is in the way the NO is designed. It is basically an income stack for Russia. They dont have to do anything to get it. All the penalty rests on Japan to try and prevent it. Let’s be honest Germany and Italy will almost never be able to prevent it. That being said I also dislike the sz 80 bonus for Russia. Another cheap way to get them income. Don’t get me wrong I do like BM3. I just think it needs a couple of tweaks.

@pejon_88 Sounds good. Take your time to decide as a team if you want to concede or continue the good fight. And yes Andrew is definitely the senior player for OOB!

@ASIA-ENGULFED I’m near Rochester and would be willing to travel for a game. I have also contacted Dan via chat. Maybe we could work out a time to play. Let me know.

Game 2 Hopefully the dice treat us both fairly!

@trulpen I sent you a chat. Yes please redo whatever you need to for the UK turn and repost. Let me know when you are ready for scramble decisions.

@majikforce Just an FYI. I have a slight issue with your US combat move to take Korea. Technically you only brought a transport which I should kill with my scramble option. I understand you had a full navy and air force within reach to protect it but the fact is you didn’t. You skipped my scramble opportunity you also didn’t ask for an edit to adjust that battle’s combat move. It may seem trivial but its not. I also have Kamis to use depending on what you bring for support. It could change the counter attack battle odds if I scramble and or get some Kami hits. Just something to think about for your next opponent. We can leave as is (unless I don’t kill the inf in Korea:relaxed: ) I don’t mind being lenient or helping out new players. But I am also not in the business of letting all my opponents mistakes go without me getting to take advantage of them. You have proven yourself to be a very competent player(hence this butt kicking) So I guess I am raising my standard for your game play

@aequitas-et-veritas Okay I give. Really thought I put those UK troops in Turkey. Good job destroying my last stronghold. I was gonna make you earn the victory and actually have to capture Egypt. But the Turkey debacle seals it. Good game. I am still a bit peeved the US was set back in the Pacific by the 1st battle dicing in sz6. It would of been a whole different ballgame in the Pacific which ultimately would of effected how the Europe side played out. But you had a flawless march to Moscow and you handled the Neutral crush well and the roaming russian stack as well. Good work! I will post. Are you up for a rematch? I need revenge! We can swap sides or stay the same. Doesn’t matter to me.

@aequitas-et-veritas No thanks! GL! HF!

@gamerman01 Owen defeats Majikforce for the playoff final. Congrats to him! He was able to overcome a G1 Paris defeat. Very impressive. Yeah for 9th place! Lol! (he is a much better player than 9th place)
