Omega1759 (Axis) vs. Paksos (Allies) - No Bid

[Paksos]

I think biggest problem I’m having with these games is loss of London - UK is my favourite power to play as and I tend to be very UK-centric in my Allies outlook. Losing London blew all my plans right out of the water!

@Paksos:

Cheers for the feedback, guys - any more stuff you have (“Paksos you did x. That was obscenely stupid” is valid criticism  :-D) is much appreciated

Am learning a lot in these games, would be interested to play again once these are over to see if I can apply some lessons! (Obviously Russia is going to smash your puny armies anyhoo…… )

I warned you about the US fleet.

Although I see that there is a decent fleet / air force threatening Hawaii now.  :-D

That’s a fair outcome!

[Gargantua]

The difference is that I have to win by Round 10… which is going to be difficult from what I can tell.

[Gargantua]

WTF is the problem here Japan???  You haven’t conquered india, china, the DEI, and it’s round 7!!!

[Gargantua]

Paksos! you should have separated your sub from your cruiser!  that way you have a counterattack against his navy!

[Omega1759]

@Gargantua:

WTF is the problem here Japan???  You haven’t conquered india, china, the DEI, and it’s round 7!!!

He retook DEI and I did not take back because I needed to focus on destroying the US navy.

Japan’s position is really strong in this game. As you noted, I am proceeding at a relatively slow, but steady pace.
