13L G40 Ziggurat (Axis) vs JWW (Allies +10)

[Ziggurat]

It’s 8 on Europe board or 6 on Pacific board. The requirement is to hold >8(6) for one complete round. I.e. from the power that captured back to the start of same powers next turn.

I guess ignorance is bliss…. :oops:

I assumed it was some total number. I did realize that you recently got two from japan but I figured you lost one with the UK. I thought it was a pretty high total number. I really should read the rules.

If what you say is correct there is NO way that I could retake haw or aus since there aren’t any allied trn’s in the pacific!

I will try to review the rules on this…

[666]

yep, six VC’s for the axis in the pacific.

well that stinks for me. will triple A declare the winner like it typically does? I imagine so….

another game where I snatched defeat from the jaws of victory!

I was winning a game against Karl and I decided to DOW on the mongols, cause I had nothing better to do with the japs at the time and suddenly I was fighting every country! Disaster 3 turns later. Crazy…

[666]

pretty silly my last usa purchase!  :roll:

[666]

rematch?

[Ziggurat]

Sorry man, I thought you had a grand plan to swoop in at the last minute and prevent me from keeping one of the VCs. Feel kinda crappy winning that way :(. Though that does explain your purchases…. And yeah, I’d be up for a rematch. Rebid or stay at 10?

[Ziggurat]

I imagine your Japanese in that game against Karl were surprised why the Swedes/Spanish cared what you did to the Mongols…. Our nomadic brethren!?!?

my grand plan has been to learn the rules while playing….not an easy way to rack up “W’s”!! :roll:

no let’s rebid if that is ok? record your victory please…

and I will be “schooled” again, I am sure, with a bid of +15 for the allies…

oh and the 8 turks that turned british….nasty to my german/italian forces in the middle east…quite the lesson, like this one, that I will not easily forget… :lol:

[Ziggurat]

With unlimited placement still I’m assuming? +13 Allies

@Ziggurat:

I believe you need to place units where-ever there are existing units of that nationality. +12

[666]

4c - Bid Placements - Bids can be placed all in one territory, spread out over multiple territories, or taken in IPCs to one country or split between multiple countries.
Land bids must be placed in a territory which you own at the beginning of the game but are restricted to units of that countries nationality. 
Examples for clarification -
A - UK can bid units to Egy.  Russia/US cannot.
B - UK can bid units to Bor/Sum.  Russia/US cannot.
C - US/UK/Rus cannot bid units to any Chinese territory.  Only Chinese units can be placed there.
Naval Bids must be placed in a seazone which already contains at least one unit and are restricted to that countries nationality.

[Ziggurat]

I only ask because some people like to play 1 unit per territory. I don’t mind either way, just affects the bid price. I’m probably going to regret this, but you can have 12.

[Ziggurat]

Forgot to ask, where would you like them placed?

[666]

I will take a 2 ss in z98
