13L Playoffs Hobo (axis) vs Gamerman01 (allies +12)


  • bid: 1sub > z91, 1sub > z98

    I should bid lower but what the heck.  I guess this is for all the marbles.


  • Test summary from TripleA, engine version: 1.7.0.3, time: 18:41:48


  • Jeez, you could have put CHAMPIONSHIP in the thread title  :lol:


  • Ok this is weird.  When I post my combat moves, I’m getting “unknown error, post a bug to the triplea development team.”

    The only thing that happened was I did some map update in between my last successful post.  Am I going to have to uninstall/reinstall triplea here?


  • I don’t know.  You could just give up


  • Well I will try again later.  If anyone watching also has problems like this let me know so I know I’m not the only one.

  • Well pretty much as bad as it could have gotten, not surprising with my typical luck.

    I screwed up the losses for z110 by taking the fighter first when I meant to kill the french cruiser, but didn’t matter on your hits since you rolled all 1s and 2s anyways.  Adjust as you want but I figured you’d want to lose the french cruiser.

    This is why I really wanted to bid lower.  When the axis gets bad luck on turn 1, it’s pretty much game over whereas not the case for allies.


  • Use this map.  In my distraught state, I forgot to move the denmark dude down.


  • Well, good luck on G1 can pretty much doom the allies, too.  We’ll see what happens on J1…

    You had about the best France I’ve ever seen, but I usually don’t kill more than one guy in Yugo  :-)

    Losing every single sub sucks and is rare…
    And of course the 110 defense was quite stiff and I am happy about that, obviously
    But yes, the combination you got is really great for UK.  No subs to go get, and the battleship is a sitting duck, and miraculously no aircraft lost.
    Of course, it would have been worse for you if you had a good enough first round in 110 to go a 2nd round and then got killed in the 2nd round

    I agree, below average G1 dice, which is a relief to me after battling Wheat’s great dice all game including great G1…

    Moscow’s probably doomed, so I’ve gotta make things happen elsewhere

  • '15 '14

    I’d say a bit unfair that the TT in 106 survived. Otherwise the France attack would have been some compensation as 4-5 extra ground will certainly help the Germans to hold the pressure by the Allies in the west.

    This game is FAR from over.
