scramble ?
L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (+12) BM4 game1

@gamerman01 He plays it aggressive, but maybe less so now than before. The game I lost to him was I think last year when he steamrolled through Europe with Germany and suddenly he had taken Moscow haha!

That is a high compliment. I do take pride in G1 scrambles that most players refuse to do. I figured I didn’t need any of them for UK1 attacks, courtesy of the 2 bid subs. Without them, I wouldn’t scramble 4 because would need for 97. I didn’t do 97 one time and quickly lost, with Italy getting to Red Sea and India quickly. I didn’t know what hit me. So saving fleet in 92 with airbase is probably a stronger move, but I am scared of 2 Italian transports instead of 1.
And German air scare the crap out of me. You don’t know how many times I was sweating it out with Russia when my childhood rival, Boldfresh on this site, was fantastic at stacking one front, and swiftly getting back to the other.
I learned that every German plane down greatly increases my chances of holding with Russia.
-
@gamerman01 Yup expected and calculated for. I need to continue going by luck for a while, so scramble it is!

z absolutely had me until round 9, when he gave it away by breaking his mobile German force in Russia into pieces and I started picking them off. India should have been doomed and also the game. He gave it back to me in 1 round after 8 solids

You can’t win against an equal player if you’re too cautious, i.e. afraid of the dice beating you.
-
@gamerman01 I understand and can relate to all the above :)
-
@gamerman01 Oh wow, that’s tough. I had JDOW in a strangle hold also, but then made one tactical error (I think leaving my Italian built fleet for the taking) and that was it. I rarely build navy with Italy anymore hahah.
-
@gamerman01 Fair enough! But then it’s also those times you really curse the dice, right?!
-
@pejon_88 It’s getting late here in Stockholm so I’ll be back tomorrow for G2. With some luck I’ll get rid of those 2 figs in Greece ;)
-
Did you see my need for scramble orders in there?
-
I have been angry at the dice more than I should, absolutely
-
Oh, those 2 fighters in Greece are dead meat. I’m trying to set up some other targets because you can’t hit them all, but I don’t really know what you’re going to do. I did assume a Greece crush :D

Scramble orders for the brand new shiny Italian fighter to 97? Just as the PTSD was starting to set in… Well, it’s war. French are trying to mop up :O
-
@gamerman01 haha yeah I answered yes to scramble. We write too much 😁
-
Not too much when it’s good stuff like that! Thanks, I can’t believe I missed it

Ohhhhhh… I only read “expected and calculated for” and I thought you were referring to something I did. Got it now, sorry!
-
-
@gamerman01 Haha, yeah everyone definitely has!
-
@gamerman01 I think that is most wise in this situation :)
-
@gamerman01 Very true! We really got into a flow.
