[MrRoboto]

you killed 2 ships =(

3 hits with my 8 submarines. ool?

[Shin-Ji]

I’ll take those on the 2 battleships (tilt them) and tilt one of the carriers.

[Shin-Ji]

You should get about 9 hits next.  Tilt the rest of the carriers, and send the rest to the subs.  If there’s overflow, kill destroyers - but be sure to leave one alive.

[MrRoboto]

So far, so good. Slightly better than average in both offense rounds so far. OOL?

The really important battle is the other one, though. Around 17% chance of winning that one, which would give me a HUGE break. On the other hand, if I lose - it’s probably game.

[Shin-Ji]

Yea.  You’re doing a lot better than expected, and I’m doing worse.

11 hits - I’ll take them all on the navy.  6 tilted carriers, 1 dst, 2 cruisers, and the 2 tilted BBs.  All of it.

[Shin-Ji]

Well, I’m off to bed.  Feel free to roll the rest yourself.

[MrRoboto]

well, lost both battles at the end. GG again…

I want another match! I think we should be eligible to play a best of 5. And if I’m not there yet, I will be soon.

[MrRoboto]

Shin Ji won against me again, this time really as axis =(

http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=37138.120

And again, I lost by a blunder. Two games, two grave mistakes. Feels bad.

[MrRoboto]

haha, wrong thread  :-D

[gamerman01]

Man, you were really screwed up…… gave me the wrong link, too  :-)

[Shin-Ji]

Well, thanks muchly for the game!  Looking forward to you hitting 10 games so we can do it again soon.

[gamerman01]

Like Roboto, I think, was meaning, you might as well start now.  He’ll have 10 in no time

[Shin-Ji]

Oh right!  I missed that.  Cool.

So, MrRoboto, would you like to play Axis or Allies?

[MrRoboto]

My usual Allies strategy that worked just fine in 2013/14 and 2014/15 doesn’t cut it against that whole bomber-strategy Axis players use nowadays with Germany. I need to find something new.

So I will try Axis again. I really need to look out for big mistakes though, this time.

I wish you all the best!
