so since you never took Hawaii back…I actually have 6 VCs on the Pacific side and I’ll still have 6 when Japan goes again and Russia can’t do anything about it…so no epic 20+ round duel, game is technically over

Want to start a series where you play as Axis and I’ll take Allies with some bid money-wise?

Whaaaaaaat?!?!

Wow. I didn’t know that. We always just play until someone surrenders.

Well, I guess we can start a new game, then, if that’s the rules. But I think we should bid for Allies.

[Talleyrand19]

yeah sorry, I would’ve said something if I knew you didn’t know…I thought you were gearing up for a Hawaiian invasion but it never came…it’s either 8 VCs on the EU side or 6 on the Pacific side for the Axis to win…I think in general people find this to be another reason why the game favors Axis (easier for them to meet Victory conditions)…

but yeah, we can bid, just post the results of our game on that thread and then we’ll fire up a new one…

I’ll start bid at +23 Allies

[StuckTojo]

20

[Talleyrand19]

hmmm, you can take at 20…let me know your bids and I’ll start it up
