G40L13 Karl7(Axis+3)vGamerman(Allies)

[Karl7]

Hey, I went and for kicks checked the map and saw I made a dumb error… the Japanese bombers should be in kwa not sia… I have no idea why I went and parked them there other than the ftr survivied when I thought it would die and just parked them all together.  I didn’t think that one through… may I change?  Obvisouly I doubt it made any difference to your tach roll…  :wink:

corrected map if so

L13 G40 Karl7(Axis+3) v. Gamerman(Allies)01cJapan.AAM

[gamerman01]

No problem

[gamerman01]

Will play in October if I ever get caught up on all AA50 games (wrapping up league year - want to post a couple more results)

[Karl7]

No prob.  Look forward to it.

[Karl7]

Glad we’re playing BattleMap… I’ve been playing MrGreen on the regular boards with trippleA and have been getting killed, not so much in win v. losses (which I think we are about even) but because my losses are epic screw ups.  I think I am getting the hang of trippleA but it is amazing how a change in interface with the game can screw you up!

[gamerman01]

Yeah, thanks for taking away any doubts about switching to that accursed program…

[Karl7]

God, don’t even worry about it.  I buy cruisers when I want to buy dds.  I can’t see a lot of the map so I forget to think about german air units sweeping me out of 91 and landing in north Africa, I bomb installations but can’t tell how much I bombed… yada yada yada…

TrippleA is smooth, but in its smoothness I feel it deprives you of scrutiny…

November is flying up on us
I’m not starting any new games - down to 3 others
I have my hands full in all of them though, so might be a couple weeks til I can really play regular… (however, I plan on giving you some moves in the next 7 days or at least when November starts)

[Karl7]

Cool.  The US response to the Japanese opening will be interesting.

[gamerman01]

It’s November 1!

Hopefully will be moving today or this weekend…

[Karl7]

2013 League here we are!

[gamerman01]

Only 3 other games going, and one is gone for 12 days.  Your chances are improving.

But you have heavy competition with the Wizardry series that I have newly discovered - last touched in my teenage years.

[Karl7]

Wizardry?  I don’t think the US can rely on wizards….

Blood and Steel is all you got!

:-)

[gamerman01]

And lots of IPC’s thanks to reckless Japanese aggression  :wink:

I also picked up Medal of Honor: Rising Sun recently for the PS2…. My 12 y/o son loves it - there’s co-op play… Japs charging at you with bayonets in banzai charges and everything…

So where are we with this?  I think we are at US1?

As you may have seen, Mr. Green got me for the championship with the Axis.  Great game though even though I lost.

Whoops - no, I must have thought it was a regular league game.  I’ll have to look again so my standings aren’t wrong.

I finished one more game so am down to only two good, long games of AA50.  We are on US1 after a failed tech roll, I think, and yes I am thinking about starting it up again.  Wizardry calls….  :-D

[Karl7]

Bump

what’s going on?

[gamerman01]

You’re next.
I’ve been into non-A&A games for awhile.  Big 1940 moves are kind of overwhelming to me at this point.  I am looking to start a second 1940 game with someone else, but I told him he has to wait until I get this move done.  I’m not starting any new A&A games until I get this one going again.

We had to wait for November to start, and when it came I wanted to do other things with my time.  But I really want to continue and finish this game - I just have to get into it again.  And your successful Pearl Harbor makes it that much more difficult….

I intend to get it done today or tomorrow - I know you’re chomping at the bit

[Karl7]

I’m out until Sunday so take your time
