Upssss, I think I did the wrong calculation again here. For some reason I was counting not enough forces to remove both Egypt and surrounding territory.

You win!!, with a not very solid opponent again, sorry. However, I liked your strategy, much more effective than mine with Axis (too scattered), yours was clearly defined to the most relevant target at each time and quick as it needs to be for Axis.

From what I have seen until now, Axis seems more powerfull, at least I think you won more easily and I don´t see a clear way to stop what you have done.

In that aspect, the game seems similar to A&A Global.

The game is interesting, but I think I prefer A&A.

However, I am happy to play some more if you wish to keep practising against me, Axis next may be easier for me and might make it a bit more difficult to win for you. Low luck or not, I don´t mind.

Cheers!!

[wheatbeer]

Pure luck is more fun.

And certainly, you can try out Axis.

I think the European Axis are very strong.

The Pacific Axis, I am seeing mixed results with. Most of my games, I get stuck with Allies pecking at me on all sides. I have never captured the UK capitol in India.

[wheatbeer]

Or we can play Global if you want (doesn’t need to be league, I actually need practice with G40 Allies if you want a friendly game).

[JuanSpain]

Thanks for both offers, it is always a pleasure playing you.

I can be a stronger opponent for you on Global, and I prefer that game after what I saw, W at W is a so big map, that I get tired thinking about a long term strategy and play more randomly in the end.

Yeah, you can take the Allies allthough I also need practice with them, VC is something hard to stop for me when playing Allies. You decide the Bid you want to practice with.

Please send me your placement and I will kick it off tomorrow.

Cheers

Juan

[wheatbeer]

Is a 16 bid okay with you?

[JuanSpain]

Sure, 16 is ok, I understand it can provide you with practice on a bid that many league players would propose (JWW, Bold and Gargantua have agreed on 16/17 vs my Axis this year). I would be happy if you wish to practice with a higher bid also.

[wheatbeer]

Okay, I’m going to test something I saw a thread about on the main page and bid a UK carrier in SZ98.

This will be a great game! Enjoy!
