L20 #1 cyanight (X) vs trulpen (A+16) BM3


  • @trulpen That default German Bomber spam doesn’t always work and there are many things you do in the game to prevent it. When you change the the price of the any unit you open a can of worms IMO. Its not the same game. If the bomber spam is a problem then just bid higher.


  • @trulpen Meanwhile you have the submarine that costs only 6? LOL.


  • I agree that the sub is one of the best naval units, depending on purpose of course. Still pretty crappy on defense.


  • @trulpen Playing BM4 should have no bid. Your already limiting the Axis with the new rule. Again when I started this game I was under the impression it was BM3 and not some new version with an added fix to limit the Axis.


  • @trulpen Nothing of this is against you sir. I respect your gameplay. It took me alot to accept BM3 and I’m not ready to accept BM4 and now PTV. Maybe back to vanilla with a large bid.


  • Well, it actually swings both ways. US has a pretty effective bomber-spam as well.

    For me I’m not much fond of choices that are no real choices. Well, it’s a complex game.

    If you want we can play another game after this with with turned tables. Same bid or adjusted.


  • @trulpen Sure I would like to play many more games with you as an opponent. Your play is very good and respect the challenge.

  • Added 5 IPC to Italy for the Med-NO.

    You’ve played very hardcore aggressive. Don’t think I’ve ever experienced situations like some of those that have arisen in our game. Very interesting. When I understood about the Calcutta-crush it was a bit too late to react to and I was just lucky I had enough to go after Sydney. Should probably have invested more in Pac earlier with US.


  • Wait, I’ll move the 2 french guys on to the US tr.

  • And remember that if you attack the aussie-subs, you won’t be able to load units during CM. But ignoring them works fine.


  • @cyanight said in L20 #1 cyanight (X) vs trulpen (A+16) BM3:

    vanilla with a large bid.

    I say as @gamerman01: OOBsolete. :grin:


  • @trulpen Yep, I know… That part is also broke because in this version it wont let you ignore the subs.


  • Just has to be handled by various edits. Cumbersome, but not unsurmountable.


  • Like loading units on tr’s should be possible by move-edit and then move out all fleet. If any should’ve stayed, just move that back by move-edit during NCM. That way no faulty dice will be rolled atleast.


  • @trulpen Lovely side-effect of a 6 cost unit. :)
