  • 10 hits out of 30 with attacking infantry is a good start!

    @Tyzoq:

    :-o :-o :-o  do you have the anti-Yoshi-luck potion?  we’ll see on Yoshi’s defense roll.  :lol:


  • looks like you just moved from a 13.5% to a 50% one, russian looks like knowing what a big fight is :)

    I’ll loose infantry only for this first round

    The Allies raise their white flag.  Good game Yoshi and congrats on an undefeated season!


  • That was an impressive battle, going from a low odds to a good one after rd1, and coming back to a very low one two rounds later…


  • @Tyzoq:

    Thanks for the game, even if not a fair one.

    The only real mistake I’ve been seeing was the us1 buy I already pointed out. It actually definitely convinced me to go for sz8, since I had a lot to win there (two full turns without any atlantic allies in Europa / Africa !)

    Otherwise, dice have been too much on the axis side, and I’m not sure you had any chance then, specially since you were gambling a little early on (that I can understand, putting as much pressure as possible early on looks mandatory in a KGF).


  • Yeah I was very disappointed in UK1, I didn’t mind the sub hitting as long as I kill it only 8% chance of the sub surviving.  As long as I kill the sub I can place in sz2 and use the russian sub for defense.  I haven’t looked at it but I think placing in sz2 might have still been better because it would have been 2 subs vs 1 sub 1 AC.  I didn’t look at it close enough though.

    The sub defense and subsequent Z8 dicing were killer

    Good game, and great sports, both of you.  Congratulations on a successful year.


    Yoshi, I want to tell you that I also was a bit skeptical of G40 for quite a while, and it took several games before I started to get the feel for it.  Now the moves don’t take me so long.  When I look back at your AA50 championship game, I’m not sure I could go back to playing AA50 because the G40 experience is so much richer and in many ways more realistic and engrossing.

    I mean, Australia is 6 territories on the continent instead of 1 single territory.
    You can’t shuck ground units from Canada to North Africa in a single move.  (Tyzoq’s transports were able to go clear across the Atlantic AND BACK in a single move!)
    The Danish straits and the strait of Gibraltar restrictions are added.
    The Dardanelles strait is closed (you exploited that to the max - I always thought AA50-41 should be played with the Dardanelles closed and then not much of a bid is needed - but the majority did not agree with me so here we are)
    Chinese play is greatly enhanced
    SBR and intercepting is much better
    You can take over true neutrals!

    Anyway, I just wanted to tell you from experience that once you play several tedious, difficult, slow games, you will get much faster and you would love it.

    Why am I trying to persuade you?  I don’t know.  But if you hadn’t noticed, interest (on this site anyway) in AA50 completely died around the beginning of the 2013 league season.
