Hey all,

I’ve got a question about the Great War map: Where do Sz’s 87 and 78 connect to? It seems I can’t move my ships out of it, even though there are arrows pointing somehwere…

ACGTO standings update #4
Here we are, over 2 months since the last standings update, where last update redrum and Bacala were doing equally well, Bacala has clearly taken a lead in the win/loss ratio of the tournament (and the amount of finals made). He is currently at a 14/1 win/loss score (only dropping a game in Total Ancient War). Redrum is still his nearest competitor with a 13/3 score, with Balladeer (10/5) and DizzKneeLand (10/7) following them up.

By now the amount of games won also starts to count in the minimum number of points to be gained, Bacala allready has a sure 13 points secured (made 6 finals and 1 loser semi final), with no one near (next best is Balladeer at 6 points). So perhaps we should start rooting against Bacala, to keep the excitement in the tournament ;-)

One final has allready been played, for Total Ancient War, it was won by redrum. He therefore is the first player to enter a Grand Final!
Also, 3 winners finals have allready started (no real finals yet, as none of the loser brackets have been played out yet): Bacala v Balladeer on LOTR, Bacala v redrum on Great War, Bacala v Balladeer on The Rising Sun,

A few other noteworthy occurunces:

• DizzKneeLand and redrum played an incredible Great War match, lasting a whopping 25 turns.
• wittmann has been doing nothing whatsoever since last update, not his fault as the other Napoleonic Empire final player just hasn’t materialized yet and he is playing in no other games.
• Pretty much everyone seems to agree that Total Ancient War isn’t a good map, both non-balanced and crazy barbarians running through
• UK managed to lose Candia (Crete) to the Ottomans, but did grab Arabia in the redrum-Dizz Napoleonic Empires game
• TRS turns out to be real hard on the sea part, both Balladeer and Dizzkneeland managed to lose a complete fleet by missing a sea connection

Good luck in the coming games all, we’re getting close to the finals!

@Balladeer - SZ 78 connects to SZ 77. US Declares War is adjacent (can build ships) into SZ 87 (think US Pacific coast).

And indeed Bacala seems to be in a league of his own and all 3 of my loses are to him :)

Hey all, my second son was born last night, so moving will be slow for a while, don’t know how long.

Congrats, Balladeer!

As for me, I apologize for my being gone for a while.  My dad passed away last week and the services were held today.  I will be back to my office (where I can post turns) later this week.  That is also why my turn is delayed for our team game.

Lightning crashes….
sorry to here about your dad.
may peace be with you and your family.

I will be a couple of days and I will be back
