I thought Axis were in a decent position, I wouldn’t have been surprised if they ended up winning.
Good game regardless.
-
nah axis were in big trouble, japan was too far from any kind of VC, russia making way too much, and german/italian position degrading fast. really wasn’t much hope. i figured i’d take your fleet down with mine at least, or do much more damage, since my fleet was doomed next turn. but that totally backfired.
i can say with complete certainty that no axis opponent, no matter how good they are, can defeat your allies in BM. there’s just too much income for the allies.
i can honestly say that i REALLY thought i was winning, i had luck going for me the whole game (until this one), but even so your allies just kept coming and coming. i killed off so many ships in the pac, but they kept spawning. it’s ridiculous.
i’m sorry, but while i don’t think i’m an expert axis player, i do feel an expert axis will not defeat an expert allies in BM, unless there is extreme bad luck.

I had almost the opposite thoughts during this game.
A handful of different moves on your part and I would have preferred to be Axis at this point in the game no doubt.
I thought the game was extremely close for a while, which is why my blockers weren’t always that strong and I would take risks that I wouldn’t normally take, and I thought this game was a testament to BM balance.
-
well i agree, i thought the same too, but then the income advantage just became more and more clear. what moves would you have done differently btw?
