@TinCanoftheSea hmm ok i’ll look for it in the rules

FYI, page 20 of the Europe rule book:

@gamerman01 Thanks Gamer! No pressure now… lol

@zlefin said in Seeking a better understanding of the bid numbers:

I suppose I should at least consider trying async play if it’s the only way to get the data I want, to assess how onerous it is or isn’t.

I think async play also adds to the Axis favor. Being able to take time and analyze a significant number of options (plus prodigious use of battle calculators) really changes the flow of the games. There have been many times where I open up the game and think I’m going one way, then sleep on it and come up with a much better plan that had initially alluded me. This obviously helps both sides, but I think the Axis are more favored here as they have the initiative and are mostly driving the board states for the initial rounds.

Also, async play isn’t really that onerous once you get used to it. It’s just a little odd at first. The worst part is itching to get your turn again :P.

@squirecam said in Gamex 2019:

Are there no A&A events played there anymore? I didn’t see anything in the listings…

Hey Squire!

Sure are. We play a tourney at all 3 Strategicon events every year starting around 9am on Saturday and usually finishing Sunday night. Opponent agreed upon boards with 1940 Europe being preliminary default and 1940 global being finals default.

Hope to see you there!

@DizzKneeLand33 said in 19L G40 BM DizzKneeLand33 (Axis) vs BobbaRossa (Allies +0):

My Japan play and my Germany play and my Italy play has sucked this game. Other than that, it’s been a great game as Axis. :D

Hah! You haven’t played poorly at all. Just ran into a couple rounds of bad dice. That’s the one thing that makes me shy away from dark skies. When things go to odds it’s fantastic, but a couple small dicings and the bomber count can dwindle to a manageable level.

Hey Paul,

To echo Barnee, it really depends on which tourney you’re attending as they all have slightly different rules. If you’re talking about the Strategicon tourney that happens in two weeks, I can help you out. Otherwise, yes, contact the organizers.

BR

Oh, forgot to answer the time limit question… It depends on how many people are there. If we have three rounds, yes there’s a time limit on prelim rounds (enforced very softly). Think it was 7 hours last con. It was only enforced once, most games move quickly and are resolved by then. If there are only enough people for 2 rounds, there won’t be a limit.

@The-Farmer Very good start. I like the buy. It’s Moscow focused and will allow UK to play more aggressive, but that’s perfectly fine. A few comments:
-It’s usually best to put a fighter in Rome for the scramble threat. I’m going to go Gibastion against this opening so it doesn’t matter here, but it might against others.
-Casualty selection in France should lose artillery before mechs. The mechs can still make Moscow, but the artillery can only shore up the Atlantic Wall. Typically, if there becomes a grave threat in the west it is much easier to buy what you need to support vs the east.
-I’m in the minority who don’t like the Yugo attack. It went well here, but oftentimes you lose a couple infantry that are sorely needed out east. I fully recognize that is not a common opinion, so take it with a pound of salt.
-The transport can bring two additional guys to the east on G1 to make Barbarossa. You lose out on a potentially costly G2 Sea Lion threat, but I feel like that is a pipe dream.

Good game man! Haven’t played against your strat in a while and forgot how stressful it is :P . A couple different dice rolls and this would’ve gone completely the other way.

I’m totally down for a rematch, either swapped sides or same. Just let me know when your schedule frees up.

Hey Folks!

It’s that time of year again, the drought for Southern California is officially over! Well, convention drought that is; can’t do anything about the lack of rain ;) . Strategicon starts back up in exactly one month (02/14-17) with Orccon and the dice get rollin! Come join us at the LAX Hilton for 2+ days of A&A tourney fun starting setup around 9am on 02/15.

We typically run 8 team tourneys, but would love to get more people. All rounds are played on any mutually agreed upon A&A game board (if a board can’t be agreed on, defaults are G40 Europe 2ed for preliminary rounds and G40 global 2ed in the final). Prizes are awarded for 1st and 2nd place. Once you arrive, head on up to the wargames room (there are lots of directional signs from registration) and either mill about the A&A tables or ask for Tim, Dale, or Luke (me) and we’ll get you hooked up. I just got my order of @Young-Grasshopper’s battle dice and am so itching to try them out.

FYI, ignore the fact that A&A isn’t listed on the schedule. It’s been run 3 times a year since 1984 and isn’t about to stop now (the tourney coordinator is just a massive procrastinator, but an otherwise wonderful dude ;) ).

If you can’t make it this time, there are two more opportunities this year with Gamex (05/22-25) and Gateway (09/4-7). Would love to see you there!

@The-Farmer said in BobbaRossa (Allies) +48 vs. The-Farmer (Axis) G40 OBB:

Im obviously going for a J3, I tried to cover the convoy zones in the event of a UK/Anzac preemptive strike.

Yup yup, could glean that from your J1 positioning. Couple questions and comments:
-Why did the units from Jehol go to Chahar instead of Anhwe? I’m assuming this is a play against Russia, but basically ensures that India won’t fall until very late.
-Why buy the harbor now? Is this to keep the Indian guys from moving to Burma? The air power/amphib threat is sufficient dissuasion and that money could have gone towards naval units that are going to be sorely needed since US is going all out.
-I think pulling the two transports from 36 to 19 was an error. This prevents you from taking all of your objectives on J3. You have 6 transports and could get all the money islands + Phillipines + Malaya + Kwangtung if they had stayed put

@The-Farmer said in BobbaRossa (Allies) +48 vs. The-Farmer (Axis) G40 OBB:

Dice gods favored me here. pretty standard G2. Wasnt really wanting to take Greece, was going to bounce and leave a path for Itay.

Yeah, it’s actually kinda too bad for you that you succeeded in Greece. Those troops are basically out of any Russian action until like turn 8 now.

Why did the guys in Finland not move up? I wasn’t posturing for any sort of counterattack and now they are delayed by a turn from any holding action. The only thing I can think of would be for a Sea Lion. It will indeed make me buy some UK home island units, but not sure that tradeoff is worth the stall.

I never know what quite to do with Italy. Took a stumble in SZ93.

Yeah, Italy is tough. I prefer to take Greece in this situation to let the Germans focus on Russia. Other than that I’m not a huge fan of the ship buy. Looks like you want to contest the Med, but that will be hard to do without a consistent commitment. It can work, but I don’t usually find the investment is worth it. Especially once the US comes knocking.
