i know adam beat him, but i have to say that in that game germany blew more than twice as many bombers on taking london than what the calc average was saying (so TUV was around -100 instead of the average of -2), and that likely made the difference for the allies (not to take away from adam’s skilled gameplay)

Bmnielsen (axis) beats Gamerman01 (+16)

Karl7

was this the dark skies strat at play?

gamerman01

Yes, Karl, and since you guys are already talking about it, I’ll have to say -
Otherwise I was trying hard not to complain

I got diced hard when attacking one of his main bomber stacks, and then he was able to turn around and sink a big American fleet with them. Earlier in the game, he destroyed a smaller American fleet with fewer losses than average.

I would have beat him if it wasn’t for extreme dice in Rome. I realize I risk sounding like a sore loser complaining about dice, but I think bmnielsen will agree about extreme luck in Rome. I had a good chance of taking the capital, to boot.

gamerman01

I’ll just make this very clear right now

I am pretty sure I had bmnielsen dead to rights if I got anything better than a bottom 20% result in Rome, but I got bottom TWO percent.

The Axis are very powerful no matter what strategy they use. I only had a 16 bid, but gave 21 to Ghost, an Allied specialist, in the championship game.
Bmnielsen is an elite player no matter what strategy he’s using, so a lot of his success is due to his A&A abilities, skill, and diligence, not just his bombers. Who else is beating everyone with dark skies?

@axis-dominion:

isn’t the way he plays this strategy frustratingly good? i don’t feel so bad now that i’m seeing other elites falling to it….

We both had lucky and unlucky stretches, but I was ready to call it if London was anything close to average. Bmnielsen is a very good AA player, he could probably do just as well with another Axis strategy. The bomber strat may simply make the Axis advantage even more obvious.
