13L G40 Boldfresh vs. Wheatbeer (Allies +15)

[wheatbeer]

Already had started, but you can EDIT on Japan’s turn.

[wheatbeer]

Unless you want me to reroll Poland  :-P

Nasty luck.

[wheatbeer]

I probably won’t be able to post US/China/UK tonight.

Also, I am unlikely to post from the 24th through the 26th or 27th.

[boldfresh]

i just wanted to send a couple tacs to egy and the art back to n italy.  i will do it on this map.

that was some bad luck for you in poland, but it was of course what i was hoping for.  i have started to invite attacks with small infantry stacks in general, seems to be working well lately but i’ve been getting lucky.

[wheatbeer]

I was feeling behind since I wasn’t really slowing any of the Axis powers, so I took a risk and failed big time, so I am surrendering the match.

I hope you don’t mind my calling this one earlier than normal, or think I’m crazy for attempting SZ37.

If you’d like another game, and you get Axis again, expect a more difficult time getting Italy off the ground  :lol:

[boldfresh]

I do not think the attempt on z37 was crazy at all.  The allies were in big trouble and I think u had decent odds like around 25% right?

[boldfresh]

Not taking any new league games at the moment but would be happy to play you again soon.

[wheatbeer]

I believe it was over 30% assuming the US sank its carriers before anything else.

And no worries about a delay, I need to mull over the J1 DOW.

[boldfresh]

you know what… i wouldn’t mind starting another game, as long as if it moves slowly between now and new years it is ok with you.

[wheatbeer]

Any pace works for me.  If I get Allies, I’ll be playing slower anyways.  I still have a lot to learn as them because I’m used to people accepting bids in the 6-10 range.

Rolling a die to determine first bidder

Rolls: 1@6; Total Hits: 11@6: (2)

odd, me first
even, you first

[boldfresh]

ok, i will start the bidding at +28 (i do not want the allies).

[wheatbeer]

I was tempted to say 29 … but I’ll accept 28.

[boldfresh]

Hold on my bad…  was thinking we were bidding DOWN for the allies.  Forgot it is reversed in the league from what we do in the tourney.  I will bid 15 for YOU to take allies.  :roll:

[wheatbeer]

16

[boldfresh]

17

[wheatbeer]

18

[boldfresh]

Before we continue lets clarify.  You dont play by the 1 unit per territory or sea zone for bid placement right?

[wheatbeer]

Correct

[wheatbeer]

(if you prefer to play with that restriction, we could … it wouldn’t alter my bid up to this point, if anything I’d bid higher with that restriction)

[boldfresh]

no i just heard that recently during bidding for the tourney - i don’t like the rule.  i prefer no limits to placement other than that there must be something there for that power already.
