@dawgoneit

Yes. It was still interesting 2-3 rounds ago.
I had fun, thanks.

@nikola1975 “how good am I with the axis”, I don’t know, there are a few players I can never beat. I do prefer playing the Allies, in all versions of the game. In PTV I think the axis need a good bid.

Yes ok. Will set it up later today.

@aagamerz13

Thanks. It was fun - I like winning, but I like with you as well 🙂

So, when you have time, we can play for fun as well, and then play a “formal” match when I get enough games.

@simon33

Ok, I will try Axis once again.

Will set up tomorrow.

@666 Sure, no problem. I will train in the meantime.

@aagamerz13 Thanks. I will start tomorrow.

@aagamerz13

Thanks! This one was exciting and quite original. It seems that fall of London is difficult to overcome if Japan plays well. In addition to what happened, I think it would be even better for Axis if Italy did not lose that fleet. I should have been patient, it was only question of time when Kairo would fall, and with Middle East and Africa open, Italy would probably go up to 35-40 IPC per turn.

I thought you might have gone for few more rounds, but you are probably right, Japan was becoming too strong and after fall of Hawaii, US would basically need to spend everything in Pacific - and still end up beyond Japan.

Let’s play another one. Do you want to bid or switch sides with same handicap? Send me a message.

@flyingbadger Thanks, man. I am very satisfied with how I played with Japan; the main difference between this one and the previous game we played was I think that I stubbornly insisted on Japan 1 attack. This seems to work better.

For Italy, it was planned, I wanted to do something nice with them and it worked well. It could have turned around if the attack on Rome was more successful. Looking back, probably Americans would hardly take it, but the British should have taken it after the initial invasion. With that, it would not work so well for you, Germans would probably eventually take it back, but it would have made a longer game 🙂

@pacifiersboard Nice. Well, see you around, we will play some more.

@nikola1975 I appreciate the match up and well played my friend.

oh ok, I didn’t think about VCs. Like in our last game, I didnt think about winning in that way. In the past I had someone sneek in a VC win and I thought it was kind of a weaselly way to win given that that game was going in my favor.
And maybe we can play again in the near future as I should get back to my game with Flying Badger. I can really only play one game at a time… if I want to play well that is

@nikola1975

Yes, 666 is very good. I will need to be careful.

@nikola1975 Sure. I will set it up later.

@nikola1975 said in PtV Nikola1975 (Axis+7) vs FlyingBadger (Allies) GAME #5:

@flyingbadger Hurrah! At the end it seems it was easy… But you know footballers’ quotes after 4:1 victory 🙂 It could have gone either way.

3:2 now. I have a feeling we will play some more.

Yes, I’d be more than happy to play more games.

It was even at the start of turn 1…

I was happy how things were going in Europe, especially the Russians, I thought they held up the German advance well. Italy still had it’s fleet but was generally contained. However careless loss of the US Pacific fleet was disasterous, leaving Australia exposed and Europe with no US reinforcements as all the IPCs had to go to rebuilding the Pacific fleet and trying to stop Japan closing out a victory. Maybe KJF would be a better approach, especially for me as I get lost in the 3D chess of the Pacific on the PtV map so would be better with an OP fleet.

@nikola1975 said in PtV Nikola1975 (Axis+7) vs FlyingBadger (Allies):

@FlyingBadger Is it 2:2 in our games now? This probably means we would need to play (at least) one more, maybe we start in a few days?

That would be great, I enjoy our games.

@nikola1975
Ah ah if I still have no patience at 46 I don’t think wisdom will reach me in the next years 😊

@nikola1975 Great game N. Thx for playing. Fast paced. Keeping egypt was key.

@nikola1975
Ok playing the Allies with a +6 bid for you as Axis.
Choose where to place it and I’ll wait for Ger1 scramble request
😊

@flyingbadger Agree, this was a fun (somewhat stressful) game. We’ll see if I can turn it around in the next one 😉

@nikola1975

Ok, we could swap side and I will play allies.
I think allies must take london back as soon as possible but… it is better to prevent and defend it avoiding a german attack

@nikola1975 sure we can play again. You can start the bidding
