RE: League General Discussion Thread
@AndrewAAGamer said in League General Discussion Thread:
I think the discovery of the Play Boardgames area where high ranked Players can play lower ranked Players for fun solves this issue. I just wish we promoted it more to new players as for example I had no idea it even existed.
Also trulpen and I will be having a World vs Andrew game here shortly. Check it out as a learning opportunity for anyone interested.
Fun and great initiative! I will follow it! :)

RE: L20 #2 Oysteilo (X) vs Amon-Sul (A+9) BM3
ahhh… I messed up there, didnt consider your bombers. There is not that much to ask about is there? Max defense

RE: L20 #2 Oysteilo (X) vs Amon-Sul (A+9) BM3
Well, if you had edited correctly and given siam to UK pacific in the first place, then what?
I think what I am saying is correct, but feel free to request a ruling. I am not accepting the second convoy roll as i believe the first set is the one we should go with (I can be mistaken, but this is my understanding)

RE: L20 #2 Oysteilo (X) vs Amon-Sul (A+9) BM3
i dont know what the right thing is here and I think we should ask which convoy rolls should be used.
Can anyone rule this? @gamerman01 , @666 or even @JDOW

RE: L20 #2 Oysteilo (X) vs Amon-Sul (A+9) BM3

RE: L20 #3 trulpen (X+9) vs axis-dominion (A) BM3
not sure how trulpen finds the resources, 8 carriers in europe, 12 fighters and still control middle east in round 9. well done

RE: L20 #1 Amon-Sul (X) vs Oysteilo (A+9) BM3
even if i go full europe with usa i can not take gibraltar and defend my fleet
I post your win now (for both games. I have no business in the other game either)

RE: L20 #2 Oysteilo (X) vs Amon-Sul (A+9) BM3
i have posted both your games. You completely killed me with your allies. It is hard for the axis when this approach is chosen. Either the allies run out of steam and lose by now or they are in good position (like this). I think you had some help with the dice as it was a horrible round 1 for especially Germany but also not that great for Japan either (your fighter, sub and destroyer at philip killes 3 units for.example). Then you completely kill japan with that china attack. Its a coin flip and you got the upper hand. It is what it is and no reason to blame the dice as you had some poor dice too
The other game is to much work. I considered putting two infantry in gib round 1 and that would have been a great call when I look at it now. I thought that my massive USA presence would discourage a gibraltar stack. Even if I buy full USA one more turn I can hardly take back gibraltar if you stack everything. Then my presence in the pacific is too week…I wanted to try a different approach but i screwed it up in round 1!
Solid play in both games amon sul and good luck in the future

Oystleilo over Karl7 Axis.
I attacked Hawaii for the win w/Japan, I rolled this round 1:
Japanese roll dice for 5 fighters, 9 infantry, 2 marines and 4 tactical_bombers in Hawaiian Islands, round 2 : 3/20 hits, 7.33 expected hits
Didn’t get much better. I got diced hard.
actually it is karl who wins after two massive USA dicings and one Japan dicing. So good game!

Don’t forget, the title of your game thread said it will not end well!!
Oysteilo is classy to talk his opponent out of giving up, and then losing… consistent with his sterling reputation
Yeah, victory was in his hands! but he gave it back. Actually I was just probably being emotional after rolling Japan and seeing only 3 red dice pop up among the 20 dice. Oysteilo was sober and judicious in telling me I was wrong
I underestimated the pacific situation, but with a fairly normal result with usa in previous round I would have decent shot at it, but still underestimated it

Wake was the right attack
And then Karl’s bombers starting rolling 1’s… ;)4 bombers scores 3 hits on defence, not bad! I would say its ok with 3 hits on offence!

I think I only had 3 bombers. 4 fts at 12 vs 5 units at 7… dicey.
you score 2 out of 3 bombers in round 1. But no inf score, so, its okey. In round 2 you score with 1 bomber and 2 inf. It means 4 bombers score 3 on defence and 4 inf score 2 on defence. Bombers work as fighters and inf work as armor!

BUT – you kill the 2 inf and block 26, game over
that was the only possibility at around 34% chance for you to survive

lookng for one game G40 2nd ed (preferably) or BM3, world domination (no victory cities) with technology. Bid can be discussed
I’ll play. One thing though, I want to house rule in the BM SBR rules. I’ll edit the XML to achieve that. So G40, with tech, no VCs.
I’ll take allies with +50.
I think i have one game with AeV, but we can start one more Simon33. I text you in private

RE: L20 trulpen (X) vs oysteilo (A+16) BM3
Its okey. Just describe what situations are okey. Is it okey to edit american ships in the pacific end of russia, if no relevant british or anzac dice is thrown?
After all you are king of edits. 🤣. I could argue you intended to land german planes there to deny a british objective . I could also argue i gave you 2 days to correct it…
And finally we all do mistakes and thats part of the game… so at some point the borderline is shady but also highly subjective.
Thats why i ask you to describe whats okey. When it comes to these parts of the game i think you have something to learn 😉.
I give you some hard time here, but no bad feelings from my side 😄
