XDAP2 R3: Yamamoto Was Diced vs Team YoJack (allies +21)

[Adam514]

No scramble. When it’s obvious you don’t need to ask.

[Yoshi]

It is not so obvious to me, too many possibilities right now I believe :)

I’ll assume a no scramble in z97 then ! (all uk air will go there I think).

Sorry guys, busy time (currently moving to a new appartment), only had time to have a quick look.

I think game is yours, but I want to have a precise look before giving up. Try to do that asap !

[axis-dominion]

Ok I think this turn has been delayed long enough, and the game has taken forever…our opponents have been waiting too long. Garg go ahead and follow through on your threat to declare a winner, so that the next game can start.

[Yoshi]

Game is yours.

I recently discovered the league rules with the additional VC condition if Japan falls… looks nice after this game :)

Well done :)

Sorry for the delays from time to time… was not planning to play alone :/

Good luck and have fun for your remaining games :)

[axis-dominion]

ok gg. your play is quite strong, but yamamoto was diced early on in this game lol

we were (pleasantly) surprised that you didn’t stack volg right after russia fell, which would’ve been tough for us.

thanks for the game. too bad you’re always too busy to make more timely turns. what do you do anyway?

also, the additional VC rule isn’t a league rule, but it’s the new Balanced Mod (BM) variation that has caught on like fire in the community.

Congrats team Yamamoto!

Did your semifinal game started already? Could you please post a link to that game (once started) here? Thanks.

Nope it hasn’t started yet. Apparently it may be a concession by JDOW if he doesn’t find a partner.

I think a min mistake was when I went to stack Volgograd with Russia while sending some allied fighters too far away from russian land ; this made the fall of Moscow earlier than expected. At some poinnt, I did not want to run too much computations ^_^

I’m not used to play with VC, and do not really like it :) I really prefer to play for global victory ; in particular, I do not like at all the way to sacrifice Japan to reinforce Europa. But this was obviously well played of you :)

And there were other rules I did not know had changed, like the sub rule (last time I played before this tournament was the “roll a dice at 2 or less for each attacking tranny”).

Anyway, you played really well, congratulations for your victory and good luck for the remaining of your tournament !
