NML 1914 - Team Game #4

  • TripleA


  • @Witt Elrood can buy 6 BB’s with the windfall from Paris. If you don’t want BB envy, you should buy 3 BBs of your own for T. :grinning:


  • @Elrood About 2 years ago I played a 1-on-1 game of G40 and as G, I lost the opening battle for Paris, despite 98% odds. Needless to say, I conceded the game after a few turns.


  • @fmerwinrommel i had the same incident!
    First round of battle was: AA shot down both my planes, then all my units missed! It went all downhill after that. Not only did I not take paris, but even like 5 defenders or so survived. Was so unlikely…


  • @redrum I got Gas Tech and thr gane has frozen, looking at the Calculator!



  • @witt Now that you have gas (or mobile cav) tech, you can overwhelm Arabia quickly next turn. No way to stop you.


  • @fmerwinrommel would habr been better had I killed that none shitty Bed. I don’t understand why anyone thought making such a cheap , but powerful unit was a good idea. It is too good for 2 IPCs.

  • @fmerwinrommel The dicing of German forces continues… But I also missed that

  • 2024 '22 '19 '17 '15

    giving you 90% would have been easily preventable…


  • @elrood the UK transports and BCs in India Ocean are very versatile, being able to reach many targets in a single turn.

  • After 5 rounds, Commies have 4 tech from 7 dice rolls, more than all the Entente combined. Entente have 3 tech from 52 dice rolls. C only spent 10 cash, the rest were free science tech dice. France spent 25 cash in round 4 alone, but failed to get a tech, and its tech dice were lost when Paris fell.


  • I thought with the unusually strong, early USA presence in E Russia, that R could stabilize its position vs C. But C can outspend and outproduce Irkutsk. So with mobile builds, it is almost guaranteed taking Bratsk next round. R can only retreat, with an undefended interior, with C racing across the continent. As Hitler said in WWII, "We have only to kick in the door, and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down.” This will be a repeat of game 1.
