Yes, I am playing so many that I sometimes forget where I need to do my turn.

Yep. I can relate to this. Thank you for rolling for tech and taking the game this far. Yes, some of your moves shocked me but I can see with a bit warmer dice rolls - things could have gone differently.

GOOD GAME!

@victoryfirst said in TGC (Allies) vs VF (German) D-day with Balance:

@the_good_captain Thank you so much for your comments. I can fully agree with you about the "feeling a prisoner of what I know". I respect you a lot for your experience and your sheer knowledge on several A&A versions. Usually I think twice before disagreeing with you.

The last thing I ever want to be is anything close to Andrew. I embrace disagreement from everyone but especially from players with decent resumes like yourself.

So please don't think twice before disagreeing with me. I don't want to miss any opportunity to improve. As they say, "light comes from heat."

Andrew is a special case of player that comes off as 'having all the right answers' and needs no improvement - and I just don't have the time for 'one way' conversation. So he is an exception for that reason.

That's a lot!!

@victoryfirst

Trying to gear up to finish the report and just realized JPN should've activated there Home Defens. Got 2 free dudes D3 1st rd .

I would've changed attack though and think I'd still get it. Of course you would've done things different too 🙂

Anyway, just thought I'd mention it. I used to have them auto deploy but changed it, as it's discretionary as when the defender wants to use it.

Maybe I can make a notification for when enemy units hit the Homeland ? User action ? Could auto place then but I don't think that'd work because shit placed at start of combat will show up but not fight.

Anyway, I'll dick with it for next update

@the_good_captain No, that was just me being stupid not understanding the rules. However as this game was most certainly an Allied win, my mistake now allows us to move on to the next game.

Thanks for this game, well played. I think even without bad dice it was yours from the start! 😁
