Axis is totally doomed!

well played, Tobias  :-)

I can’t possibly hope to hold western europe and push russia at the same time and Japan isn’t very strong at all.

Anticlimactic end, but this way millions of make our citizens don’t have to die  :-P

Thanks Pete! As I wrote in the result thread, your play did not reflect your current stats in the league.
You didn’t make many blunders and you made many solid things. For instance the relentless push of Italian ground units towards Russia. Largest force I have seen for a while.
However it is a problem to not have Ukraine under German control.

With Japan your play was solid too, however you kind of messed it up in J5. You didn’t buy ground units in FIC/Malaya Japan desperately needs and allowed me to take and hold 2 territories which hurt Japan and strengthen China plus the Pressure was off Burma.

You played it well before, the 5 tank buy worried my and I had to do massive investments to keep Japan off Burma. And Axis was not totally doomed. Against a weaker opponent I think I would have seen options to try to make things happen with the Axis. However I of course felt comfortable with my Allies position.

But this is the thing in Balanced mode. You can’t easily play towards economic advantage because this is not easily achievable.
Axis need to play more focused on taking enemies entirely out. Russia is most important but before India and/or China need to be taken out.
You played towards India in the beginning but then hesitated which is deadly for the Axis.

But let’s see, this was my first BM League game as Allies. Gamerman states anyway, the Allies are overpowered in BM, let’s see where this goes.
And I also have no reason to complain about the dice, they have definitely not been in your favor in this game.

Keep it up! It is just a matter of time until you will get many victories. You did the exact right thing. Challenge the good player now to learn.
You should easily make your way into Tier 1 soon!

Good luck,
Tobias

Thanks for all the kind words and advice  :-)
