back to top.

juan, i’ll say this, i usually lose games in which i do a neutral crush, and this neutral crush did not start off well (spain was TOUGH, which i suppose is appropriate considering your country of origin).  :-)

[JuanSpain]

Hi Bold!

Sorry for the delay, I was skying this weekend and today a dinner after work. Tomorrow may be difficult, but on wednesday I should be able to make this move.

Yeah man, you should have not attacked Spain in this game… I will need to think about the new options now, allthough I don´t like how things look like since the very beginning and getting worse every round. I must say, that you are playing really strong in my view, and commanding the game with no doubt.

Juan

[boldfresh]

no problem, have fun!

forgot about the buried french fighter.  he wants to visit spain now that it is open for tourism.

[JuanSpain]

Hi, I think Anzac fighters are not reaching Moscow (or should they be allowed to fly over Afganistan?, just for attacking it I think)

[boldfresh]

@JuanSpain:

Hi, I think Anzac fighters are not reaching Moscow (or should they be allowed to fly over Afganistan?, just for attacking it I think)

They can reach because Afghanistan was attacked by the British mech meaning it is then eligible to be flown over on future allied turns.

[boldfresh]

Once attacked, a previously neutral country becomes “friendly” to the other side.  This means the other side may land aircraft there and enemy aircraft can fly freely over the territory.  you are correct though in one thing - if afg. had not been attacked by the british, the anzac aircraft would not have been able to make it to moscow without attacking afg for at least one round.

this is a trick i may have pioneered years ago, at least i’m the first to do it that i’m aware of.  you can surprise the axis with multiple aircraft in moscow that they were not counting on at just the right moment, by attacking the neutrals and flying over afghanistan.

[boldfresh]

without the anzac air you would have had a nice shot on moscow around 85% with 3 bombers remaining.  with the anzac air your odds go down to 38%.  i hoped you would not realize anzac could reach and thereby induce your italian tank to attack smolensk.

[JuanSpain]

Impressive man, yes, I did not see the history of your moves and assumed Afganistan was still not able to be flied over by Anzac, and sacrified my italian tank because of that. I am learning a lot from you, as expected.
