1d6: 4

[FMErwinRommel]

Not that it matters, but I wanted to set the record straight. Turns out, the same results, the G sub sank the UK cruiser.

[Witt]

@FMErwinRommel thanks for rolling for us .
I did think you had misrolled that Sub sneak , but kept my trap shut , as it was Game Over .

I will take Turkey and conquer all of the ME , whilst my worthless Commies embarrass a sick, ageing , Russian Empire.

[Elrood]

@Witt I wouldn’t have minded to see how situation around Alps and Greece unfolds… I did some unusual moves and wanted to see what they merit (can I say it like this? uncertain), but sure… once Paris falls it is hard to play on.

[Witt]

@Elrood just needed the past tense : unfolded . Otherwise , made sense.

[Witt]

And : seeing …

[Witt]

@Entek Afsm will take Austria. .

[Entek]

@Private-Panic you’re up

I’ll go US

[FMErwinRommel]

@Entek PP chose second and Witt said Adam chose Austria.

Russia please

@simon-tressel so you get Germany . Hooray!

[FMErwinRommel]

@Witt @simon-tressel Simon should be allowed to choose for himself. Germany is a very complicated power to play, with many units all over the globe. France/Serbia with more limited scope of operations would be easier for a newbie,. But that would leave me with Germany. We’ve never had a situation like this before regarding selecting powers. If Simon as G facing Elrood and me as F and UK, it would be unfair. G’s allies could advise, but the sheer number of moves and battles on G1 alone is staggering.
What would you choose @simon-tressel Germany or France.Serbia?

[simon.tressel]

I am happy enough to play Germany. It will likely be different from what you’re all used to (being my first time) and maybe not optimized. But I’m excited to try some things out!

[simon.tressel]

Could someone else please start the forum post though? I don’t want to put it in the wrong spot or something. How do you all manage the emails in TripleA for the PBF MARTI section? Just one email for each side or?

[FMErwinRommel]

@dawgoneit Do you want to continue getting the marti dice?

@simon-tressel 2 players get the marti dice emails. Witt always gets them. Sometimes 2 players from the same side, it doesn’t matter to us.
See the arrows on the lower right corner of the screen, they let you go to the beginning of the thread postings or the most recent. You can see what the prior G player did on G1 by looking at the history posted on the forum, if the player chose to do so, or else, open the prior game and in the pull down menu in upper left hand corner go to history.

[FMErwinRommel]

@simon-tressel Do you playtesting in local mode but always use Play by Mail for your actual game turn and save it in PBEM so that the email addresses for Marti dice are already filled in.
