you should give the woman a chance. Your the champ and she only has 7 games ‘EXPERIENCE’. 24 is not too much to overcome right? :|

A) The allies are spread out defending everywhere instead of focused.
B) The Germans should have England out of the game by Round 2, Round 3 if bad dice. That means they own Africa and are doing 8 Convoy Damage a round to England. -9 Africa -8 Convoy -6 from what Japan does to Australia, India and New Zealand in most games. That’s turning 30 IPC into 7 IPC.
C) With India, and Australia gone, the Axis only need a couple more VCs, oh look, Stalingrad and Leningrad are so convenient for the taking. Maybe Hawaii instead. Not like the allies have a chance because America either defends Hawaii or Russia. Either way, 10 VC, Axis win. No chance for the allies.As for “where I am looking” the only place I can look. AAMC. I don’t see any AARe games here.
There needs to be some SERIOUS changes to “balance” the game.
1) Submarines can be found by aircraft only.
2) Super Submarines and Wolf Packs have no effect on Submarine Detection
3) Submarines must be adjacent to industrial complexes to cause Convoy damage and that damage is 1 IPC per submarine up to 50% of the territory’s valuePick 2 of the above.
4) Remove VCs from W. Europe, Karelia, Hawaii and Philippines. (Keeps the Axis and Allies even on number of VCs.) Reduce VCs needed to win by 2 each. (Axis need 8, Allies 9.) This allows the allies to do something other then every nation for itself.
Think that would give the allies a chance. As for your axis getting 3 or 6 bid, who’s that insane? I’ve won a couple of times with no bid for axis. They are SOOOO primed for victory that the allies don’t even have a chance! Well, barring insane dice, no chance!
England starts with NO destroyers near by, that means you can do 6 Convoy Damage on Germany 1, assuming you don’t buy more submarines, and hell, I buy 2 more! Now I’m doing 8 Convoy Damage on Round 1 and there isn’t a blessed thing England can do about it! Japan should be focusing on their own Submarines so they can line up 5 Submarines and a fleet in SZ 55 to do 10 IPC damage to America and own Hawaii reducing America and that means America’s earning 27 IPC a round, almost as little as Russia!
-
shouldn’t mr. submarine be the axis? thats teh only way that makes sense to me. if the allies never win. Jenn should prove herself by being the allies, and U505 should disprove via the Axis winning. just my thoughts.
-
I believe you may be mistaken, Commander. U-505 doesn’t play Enhanced. Never has. However, if I ever get tired of dominating Revised, I may decide to dominate Enhanced just for the variety. :evil: But not right now.

I thnk she might be thinking of Axis _roll

Please take the uber axis and destroy me. I will show you the allies do have a chance to win the game.
Stop the chatter and accept the challenge.

She is the one saying the axis can not lose, I never made that contention. Why should I give her the weaker team, regardless of any bid they may get?
In fact, I still believe the axis need a small bid to even the game.
-
Fine, you want allies with the axis with a bid of 4.5 rounded down to 4? Since you claim the axis NEED a bid and that the average bid is 3-6 IPC. (3+6 quantity / 2 = 4.5)
Still don’t see how the allies even have a breath of a chance. I’ve yet to see them win except in the very wild game where I was allowed a 24 IPC bid (cause the other guy also never saw them win!)

Where/how? Here by forum or AAMC rated with their dice roller?
You choose, either is fine by me.
-
AAMC doesn’t have a dice roller for AARe specifically, they just use their AAR roller and you make up for it.
May as well do it here, with the onsite roller so every die roll is open for everyone to see. Nice log that way. No one can complain they didn’t get the email cause it’s displayed right here. :)
As for placement of bid, make it an Artillery in Libya

I think i will follow this game. Can it be played at these forums?

@Cmdr:
Otherwise, please stop telling me that it’s all fair and balanced and crud. I’m lookin, and i’m not finding a game where the allies didn’t get incredibly lucky to find a win. AFAIK this is about as broken as possible.
I will wait until we finish game two of “The Jenigma Enhanced Experiement” before I ask for a full retraction of the above statement.

Well, in my own defense, the players I’ve been playing with were not exactly following the rules. I won’t say they were cheating, they may have just been confused. The theory was presented to me that attacking and defending submarines were immortal until discovered by a destroyer, thus, it was perfectly possible to have a submarine attack 3 battleships, 8 carriers, 16 fighters and 24 transports and win every time without losing the submarine, since the defenders could not retreat and could not fire back because they had no destroyer to find the submarine!
Given that scenario, all Germany has to do is send the submarine to SZ 2 and only Russia/Germany submarines could fire. Or Send just a submarine to SZ 13 and all the fighters in Europe are free for other activities since the battleship there had no chance to defend itself before being sunk. Etc.
You can see how I’d say it was hopelessly broken.

Oh I understand.
Which is why I want to wait until the end of the second game.
You mentioned about something else being broken from our first game :)
-
Yea, the economic attacks. They’re always broken, they’re just MORE broken in revised I think. (Mainly because there are even MORE ways to Economic someone.)
Not broken for either Allies or Axis, just broken in general.

at least in Enhanced, you can counter these economic attacks
so I think they’re not as broken as you might suspect.
-
The counters are not too effective.
For instance, if America has 5 heavy bombers attacking you, even if your gun DOES get one or two, you’re still screwed. Add to that submarines off your coast (Japan) and rockets and there’s absolutely nothing you can do but wait for them to invade.
That’s what makes it completely broken, instead of just way too powerful. Anyone one economic would be okay, all three?

sending 5 bombers is totally inefective. lets say you have one die, thats 15 ipc loss. you did not bomb anyterrtory for 15 ipc so you are taking a loss.
-
3 At Germany, 2 At Southern = 5 Bombers
You can do 16 IPC and only lose 1 Bomber making it a 1 IPC gain.
