L12 - Final - Yoshi (allies) vs Tyzoq (axis) ; +11 bid : 1inf egy 1art euk, 1art


  • I do like having US bombers around for their versatility, they are good for sending into amphibious assaults, terrorizing naval fleets, and if you have nothing better to do bomb the heck out of Europe.  I am not Hobo but I guess I’ll take it as a compliment that you mistook me for “a dominant A&A player.”  :-D

    I think I went with more bombers than I usually do simply to increase risk/reward against a very good player.

    @Gamerman01:

    If you were Hobo, you would have had this many transports, men and bombers in Algeria at least 1 round earlier….

    I may have if the UK would have at least sunk the sub in sz2…    :cry:

    Although I can’t cry about it, I understood the risk when I made my purchase and my move.


  • Yep, it was definitely a compliment.

    Perhaps you will grow into the legendary status that he left behind and the name “Tyzoq” will one day be whispered nervously in the corners of dark pubs in the same manner.  Perhaps…… one day…


  • @Gamerman01:

    I can’t believe how many ground units Yoshi has shucked to Ukraine and Caucasus already.  Never seen that before.

    well, that’s a consequence of two points :

    1. sinking the allied navy in sz8 gave time for the axis to defend western territories, thus sending more units early on towards Russia

    2. as I saw the KGF coming, I played Japan accordingly, thus going quite fast and heavily  towards the “south” way, and killing the uk forces there. In the meantime, Italy and Germany were able to transport two units a round directly on the russian front, and the tank dash just completed the work…


  • @Tyzoq:

    I may have if the UK would have at least sunk the sub in sz2…    :cry:

    Although I can’t cry about it, I understood the risk when I made my purchase and my move.

    I was surprised to see the US1 buy too : at this point, you knew that your fleet was in danger, and did not built more navy to ensure units in Algeria on round 2. That definitely gave more money to Italy.


  • That’s a good point it would have been better for me to land a couple units in Algeria than none at all.


  • @Gamerman01:

    That looked like a last gasp, desperate win or resign attack.  Can’t blame you.  It’s a slow death otherwise.

    The way I wanted to respond to this statement was “my last gasp is coming on my next Russia turn”  And here it goes!…
