13L G40 wheatbeer (Axis) vs hobo (Allies +12)

[wheatbeer]

If that happens, I would like a rematch if you’re interested.

[hobo]

no comment on what might affect your strategy but I will play you a second game regardless.

[wheatbeer]

Waiting on ANZAC/France in case I get lucky.

I know it may seem foolish to go for a 2% battle, but I think that’s better odds than winning against the Allies when the UK is stronger than Italy and the Soviets are stronger than Germany.

The Allies have a huge window of time to contain Japan. Even if I do take out the UK, it will be an uphill struggle.

oh sorry didn’t know you actually moved italy  :lol:

Actually, my math was wrong, the odds were 20% not 2% … not sure what I entered wrong.

Failed, but did a smidge better than average  :-)

Alright, will post surrender in a moment.

Shall we rebid or do you want to the Allies at 12 again?

[hobo]

I’ll take allies at 12 again unless you want to go lower on it  :wink:

It’s actually hard to stop sealion if germany is really determined…

[wheatbeer]

Do you want the same bid placement?

[hobo]

[wheatbeer]

Will do
