Hi guys,

sorry for this surprise post, I just wanted to let you know that there is somebody out there who watches your game. I just took it randomly to get some inspiration. I got plenty of it, quite unusual game I would say but very interesting.

Good luck to both of you (however I’d say that Allies need a bit more of it to win^^)

Cheers

Wheatbeer is an artist!

This guy really likes the Middle East and plays Japan very well.

[wheatbeer]

My gut says this one will take many rounds to play out (barring a major mistake). I am just waiting for that tech roll hammer to fall and the US gets improved shipyards or an air tech.

[JDOW]

The tech stuff is indeed very interesting. Statistically Gamerman meanwhile runs under EV with his tech rolls. I have to say that I never made any tech roll in my life, however I meanwhile learn that more games than I thought take 10, 12 or even more rounds –> The longer a game lasts the more valuable tech rolls can be.

[wheatbeer]

Hey Gamerman,

I forgot to move my Germans in Africa during the CM phase (all non-dice, walking into empty territories). Is it okay to EDIT those moves now (it seems analogous to sinking the Japanese tt on UK6)?

Sorry for the delay on this turn by the way, I was having a great deal of trouble deciding how to handle Western Europe.

[gamerman01]

Just a sec - I’ll need to take a quick look

[wheatbeer]

Here’s the map following CM.

I originally intended to walk into undefended SW Africa, Rhodesia, and Tanganyika. I just forgot because it took me so long to decide on my Buy/European stance.

No other combats took place in Africa, or created a need for landing zones.

[gamerman01]

I think you may be confused.
What did you want to move?

You had 4 infantry in Sudan
You moved 1 INF Sud->Eth
1 INF Sud->Congo
1 INF Sud->South Afr
1 INF Sud->Tang
and left 1 in Egypt for the NO

It appears to me you moved everything on G7.

[gamerman01]

Oh!  G8, not G7

[wheatbeer]

Sorry for the confusion, I just didn’t finalize the current turn since your answer could affect my placement.

[gamerman01]

Right - I see it - go ahead with the 3 intended Africa combat moves - thanks for checking

Thanks and sorry for the bother.

The downgraded IC in WGR is killing me! (I assume if I were to upgrade it on G9, I couldn’t mobilize 10 units there until G10’s placement, right?)
