Rough game for Germany.

UK has a very unique strategy in this video.

Good game, very close! Then I calculated the Berlin 1-2 and got a completely different result, from what I remember, the UK got around average, and the USA got an above average result with an overall roughly 2% odds to take Berlin. The 1-2 on Moscow was roughly a 94% for Japan to take, and my Germany got bang on average result. I was using a worse calculator at the time, so I might have miscalculated. I'm not sure what you were expecting from Infantry attack roles. You needed heavier units for UK. GGs!

Still have my CD from when I bought it in new in 1998. Could not believe how bad the AI was at the time. Like you, I had to create house rules to make it a challenge.

It seems dices are your friends:)

When I go 4 inf 2 tanks on USSR in r1, I prefer to place my 2 tanks in the Caucasus. That way, if GER doesn't stack Karelia round 1 and instead just puts 1-2 inf in every border state, then I can send a tank or even 2 down to India in round 2 if Japan does the 3 transport + 2 art open and looks like they might try to go India capture in round 3 with their opening moves. The only 2 downsides are A) having 2 less inf available if he does a Ukraine stack in R1, but that's pretty rare, and B) potentially leaving tanks vulnerable if he attack Caucasus in r1 but you'll know if this is possible before the placement phase, dependent upon how Ukraine and West Russia battles went.

👍

@53:56 Germany's turn 2 could have taken russia with 5tanks 3 fighters vs. 8 inf/art blitz through caucasus.

I was surprised to have the Med transport for as long as I did, now I know why haha. I actually didn't realise I could of went for the UK GER 2, but you blocked with a DD.

Thank you, the movements of the game are very smoothly and logically explained. Watching games like this from different players broadens your horizon of tactical and strategic ideas. Simply watch a game like this is very enjoyable, but explaining the plan gently, in other videos, the speed of explanation and play breaks the pleasure of enjoying the game.In countries like mine, these board games were played a lot on a daily basis, but much more than in the USA because we didn't have electronic games and this version of the game for PC is very good for those of us who spent hours of our youth playing this game.

That UK1 New Guinea battle was a bit awkward. Plenty of times sitting their with a blank face waiting for someone to get a hit.

Looking forward to the live stream

Is round 5 going to be published soon? I do think this one is a forgone conclusion

Are you saying he comes back from this? :)

Dude you from Long Island??

GG!

This one is in the bag already. The Allies player is not showing competence and Moscow is falling most likely Japan round 5 if not even earlier by Germany. And that shall be a VC win immediately as you'll also have Paris and Leningrad covered from Allied retake by the German infantry+fighter mass :)

Ran out of Time. I will finish it.

I mentioned the sz11 attack in your last video. It was an easy kill so why not. You are so far ahead in this game it’s not funny

What he did with the fighter and carrier to sink your transports is kind of an exploit, but not really...I would say it's not as egregious as the enemy sub submerging in combat with an enemy fleet and then preventing the fleet from then moving in non-combat...Either way, the developers will never address the issue...

GG. He was a very aggressive player I guess, and he played for an early win taking lots of risks. Many payed off for him very well, I guess not enough in his opinion, so he forfeited. And about the japanese fighter move, yes I know of it, hasn't been played vs me as I take precaution against it, and I've done it a couple of times myself. The opportunity doesn't present itself too much, usually happens in the Pacific ;)

This player didn't purchase enough infantry with G. And relied too much on Industry with Japan.

Haven’t you just lost those 4 us transports in sz11 to a jap plane!! Let’s see if he spots it.

Like the aggression, got some bad dice attacking the German infantry, but I think that was worth the risk. You could keep pushing hard with the Soviets, press that whole central European front. I'd raise the white flag if I were Axis, Russia is too big, with no pressure on it.

That map is not geographically very accurate...

Idk with the US destroyers move to UK waters... could have waited until UK put a fleet down... he's got enough air to sink it in 1 round, and 2 two's might get no hitbacks... Relatively low risk fight for him, high risk for you (especially considering his dice). One nice thing is that Japan is just wasting tank left and right, and that is completely unsustainable. Your opponent isn't a platinum that is for sure, but his dice are ;)

Yeey when you see bomber hits on defense but 2 planes can't hit 4 rounds, gotta love it!!!

I still hate that you cant play with Italy, France or China.

That France battle was brutal

With Japan building the 3rd complex, giving it 7 production spaces on mainland Asia, I fully expect him to completely ignore the Japan complex other than for air, transport troops into Egypt to reinforce the Germans there, and hold the Suez open for the Japanese fleet that shall move to SZ34. This move will delay any push into Moscow, true, but US will have to move from the Med, giving up the IPC there, also Japanese will start grabbing UK income along the German tank in Africa, also gives a possibility for even a stronger Japanese push towards the Atlantic through the Med presenting problems for the Allies as they will have only France to attack (German air preventing Baltic while Japanese fleet and German air pressuring the fleets to combine at SZ8 and still having to defend SZ 10 due to bombers in France). If you see a German factory build in Egypt this is 100% the plan. In this case it's up to the USSR to force troops towards Asia in order to take away Japan IPC and move the main western defense in Karelia so Germans cannot retake their lost IPC in the north. BTW on USSR round, you had 1inf and 2 arty in Karelia. Why didn't you swap the arty with infantry from WR? He didn't manage to take it but only due to very poor RNG, and still an arty got lost in the process that didn't need to get lost. I always tend to NOT present arty in defense whenever I have the chance. Just no need for it.

We neeeeeed Axis n Allies RTS remade The boardgame is great and all. But I miss the RTS

I think you really need to secure Scandanavia asap because of his decision to not stack Karelia effectively...Otherwise, you're basically giving him 3 free IPCs...

He lost a fighter in the SZ 7 attack at least...

Glad to see your videos again

Gg

gg sorry you had some shitty dice anytime you want to do this again let me know bro

Of course I do lol

Sorry for the log turn there

I was thinking about it

That was a bad start for you

thank you

Thank you

I'm new to axis and allies online and youtube recommended your channel. Seems pretty cool so far! You mentioned a discord. Is that discord open to anyone to join?

sorry i was busy next stream I will join

G1 kinda silly to not use any of the extra fighters esp in Cauc

Where is part 4? It wasn't over yet. Once again why I read all the non-combat moves...

Oooof happens to me every now and then, unfortunately the UK sub will punish it thoroughly, not only logistically :( This might change the game completely, as Moscow will not be threatened from the east for 2 more rounds...

hi man i love your vids

Those poor Japanese soldiers ... soon to be sleeping at the bottom of the Pacific.

Quite conservative opponent. Seems he will try to hole up in Moscow. If I were him I'd use the 4 USSR infantry to take out your Buryatia as it would force you to move Japanese slow ground to the north. If he perchance moves the US destroyer to SZ 25 effectively blocking your sub from escaping, I'd attack it as if the battle goes in your favor he might have to divert the 2nd destroyer too, effectively lowering his numbers in the Atlantic and reducing his possibilities vs your airforce, and as he is conservative, limiting his landing zones available ;)
