@666 said in ksmckay (axis) vs 666 (allies+15):
I am getting beaten up in each theater…hmmm
going to need to give this some serious thought
Yeah, allies are running out of options. Really hard for allies when axis is outproducing by 50. Norway and company is a nice for allies but really thats the only positive and not enough to counterbalance losing Africa.
@666 Dont think you need all those units in Russia. You could have easily sent another inf to Arch and you could have retreated after whiffing in Bry rd 1.
@trulpen I would reconsider. While I find playing with no edit rules too stressful (even if I rarely make mistakes), Andrew was very upfront about his policy and you agreed to it. If you were similarly upfront about the bump policy, then this would clearly be a case of ‘rules are rules.’
But instead you made multiple mentions saying the bumps dont mean anything until with no notice given, you changed your mind and applied a rule that in this community is never applied like this and probably should be amended based on this.

you are giving this game too much thought!
Always.
But yeah, I usually do most of the planning for It/Ger/Jap before doing Italy.

Yes, but not with moves like that by axis. Not sure what I was thinking. I had decided I wasnt worried about you attacking Italian fleet, but not sure why really. And I had been leaving mech in WGer in case you decided to try and swing for SItaly, but completely forgot about that on German turn. I dont think it matters but still very sloppy.
