Game 2: weddingsinger (Axis) vs Ichabod (Allies) G40 no bid

[Ichabod]

@weddingsinger:

Hopefully I’ll feel better when Germany starts bombing Moscow.

Successful bombing always makes me feel better.

I’m surprised you did that Sea Battle.

I had to re-do the US’ turn…I edited it to reflect how the dice were rolled the 1st time (which benefited Japan).

When are your German bombers going to start getting shot down! You’ve gotten some good bombing raids in on London several times now scott free I think.

OK, I F’ed up and forgot to use the two italian tanks to kill your Russian blocker in Eastern Poland.

May I pretty please kill you?  I’ll straight up swap a tank or save the game, reload, roll the battle and see the results then reload the saved game…

Or just redo the entire turn?

If its an kill a tank for your guy edit swap, you can do it.  I’m out the door for date night in a minute.

Hey, enjoy your date tonight! This is just a game and should neve interfere with our family life.

Do you ever load your game as “Start Local Game” first? That’s a good way to check the board before planning and then EXECUTING your turn.

In regards to your request for the edit, I’m sorry, I don’t think that is fair.

First of all, I think edits should largely be for (in order) of fixing a game file, minor non-combat edits, obvious freebie walk-on attacks, or honest mistakes of clicking too quick on the last combat casualties (like you meant to keep a fighter instead of a tac. bomber). Also, if a player does an edit, and the next guy just plays on without questioning it, I think that means acceptance. No one has ever asked me before if they can edit an attack battle like that for something of such critical game changing importance.

Second, Germany got really good dice at Slovakia in the first place. One German artillery killed two Russia ground units. If normal dice applied, Russia would have had 2 or 1 ground units in Slovakia. Winning that dice was huge and then gave Germany an opportunity. Now 9 mech from Berlin were in range. It also then required me to COMPLETELY alter my plans for the UK. I was planning on sending a minimum amount of UK planes to Romania, and then some to Moscow to intercept against a bombing raid. If normal dice in that battle, we would not be discussing this.

Third, earlier in the game, I realized before Japan went that I messed up at Burma with my UK India forces stack. I also messed up in not adding another ANZAC fighter to the stack when I had the chance. I didn’t ask for an edit because I was thinking it was too late and had to accept my mistake. That battle where Japan wiped out my UK India stack + their planes required the US to start building 100% against Japan when I wanted to keep coming after Germany. I did not want to do that.

Fourth, game style. After this game, win or lose, (I will mention philosophically why I think you missed this opportunity).

[Ichabod]

You’ve played Japan really well this game…I think the game definitely leans Axis. I wish though that after about 10 dice rolled against the German bombers…I’d have gotten a few by now. Such is a dice game.

I think you should have taken the Italian bomber as a hit in E. Poland or sent both tanks instead. I think my Russian stack at Bessarabia is going to escape.

The odds were even better this chance to crush that stack. If you got to crush it on G8, than I think the game would have completely tilted your way. Than Moscow would fall for sure on round 11. Still could.

Don’t worry about the edit - I know the line is different for everyone so I ask, don’t tell, especially there - I posted the end of Italy’s turn and left it up to you for a reason.

BTW, I do walk through my options and then go in to the real game - I still f up and miss moves or I try to wrap up and get distracted for a bit, come back and… oops.
