      Ingcameroni (axis+8) won whit Patton77. UK very strong in Pacific Sea in the 1 round. Germany take Africa and build troops to attack Moscow. At the end... allies surrended before Moscow falled! Thanks to Patton77 for the game, very friendly player!

        Wasp(allies) wins vs. Agency10(axis+8) Allies pressed africa hard and kicked the axis out early. By mid 2nd round it was all she wrote for rommel and his pals. Axis suffered some less than optimal dice and this let UK keep the germans off russia's back for most of the game. Meanwhile the americans used a pacific strategy to contain and eventually collapse japan. The axis were able to pull off a brilliant final move that more than likely would have taken moscow via the double tap! However...the U.S. was able to save the day by gaining the 9th VC at the end of the round. Thus canceling the attack on moscow 😉 whew! gg agency10

              Eboy82 (Allies) wins versus Jesse-Boulard (Axis+8) by surrender in round 13. A bid placed in Africa and some surviving subs kept Allies away in early rounds. Instead UK focused on helping Russia from the north. Germany was right on track to break Russia through a well executed infantry+artillery purchases - later tanks. Germany was so strong on unit count, that allies in round 6shifted to a pacific campagn strongly enabled by an axis fleet located in the north Atlantic. US Fleet went through Suez Channel and quickly secured key pacific islands sealing the fate of Japan. UK and US supported Russia sufficiently to deny any axis attack. Thanks to Jesse-Boulard for a well played match and good luck in your next round !

                Round 1 AdamF vs PaddyMaroon
                Allies (AdamF) hang on vs Axis+9 (Paddymaroon) in unusual, but hard fought battle. Axis, pressed hard and combined to have Japan take Moscow. Allies countered with pacific fleet build up and eventually Japan could no longer build units in her multiple factories.

                    Round 1 match: tulkas (axis) over Mogwai (allies). Strange defensive dice in round 1 but japan was able to recover quickly and put pressure on Russia by round 5.

                      Roud 1 match: panpal(Axis +8) wins over Frank the tank( allies). Allies went pacific putting Japan under pressure. That enabled Germany to get Africa and build a fleet in Baltic that put Uk on the defensive. The US was making slow progress in the Pacific, while Germany started building ground forces that allowed it to get Moscow. Japan was able to defend itself while German was capturing the rest of Asia. I would like to thank Frank for an interesting game.triplea_Rus19.tsvg

                        Jmpsmsh (Axis+8) won against Patton77 after 6 rounds. Allies build factories in India and Sinkiang early on, putting pressure on Japan. However, the dice favoured the Axis and Germany could build a ton of ground forces to push the Russians back to Caucasus/Moscow. Meanwhile Japan eliminated the UK and Russian forces in East Asia. In Round 6 Germany took Caucasus with way too many tanks making Moscow's capture in R7 inevitable.

                          frank-the-tank (Allies) wins versus Jesse-Boulard (Axis+8). Strong opening by UK in Pacific created an opening for USA. USA managed to sink 3 transports on round 1 which put Allies in the lead. Russia was also in strong position vs. Germany. Meanwhile, Axis put forward a wicked strategy to take over UK which came very close from happening. However, UK managed its own wicked counter, and Axis surrendered on round 5. Thanks for the game Jesse.

                            Barca (Allies) wins versus Jeff (Axis+8). Axis purchases focused on tanks and air power. Allies strategy adapted by buying infantry and trying to control large sections of Europe with delaying action in the pacific. Axis surrendered at the end of round 7. Thanks for playing Jeff.07_4J_Jeff_Barca.tsvg

                              Bayder (Allies) crushes Handsome (Axis +8). After a rather unlucky R1, wich should have given Germany a good starting position. I, the Handsome one, obviusly not the cunning one:), decided to try a new cunning opening, which Bayder countered with ease. Allied aggressive play on all fronts, which halted the Japanese buildup in Asia and denied Germany Access to Africa very early, put Germany under pressure very fast.

                              In addition Germany makes a fatal miscalculation/decission in G4 and let a combined UK/Russia take EE and hold it, while at the same time US threatens from the South.

                              I drag the game out until round 8 where Axis surrender. I thank Bayder for the game, and the lession. He was a great and fun opponent to play against. I wish him the best in the rest of the tournament.

                                Handsome neglected to mention the fact that my Allies had some amazing early luck in air attacks in the Atlantic and Med. This really set Germany back, despite Handsome's best efforts.

                                I also wanted to let people know that Handsome is the most cordial and entertaining opponent you will ever find!!! Along with each game file, he sends an amusing historical narrative, which had me laughing and sometimes Googling his references for perspective. So fun! Thank you Handsome, and best of luck!

                                  Pannpall ( Axis +8) wins against e-boy ( allies). Axis went for Africa, Allies, however, build a strong navy early one which allowed them free movement around Europe and early landings on Africa killing all German troops. Japan arrived just one time to help axis keep control over Africa thus securing a small economic advantage for axis. Gradually this enabled German and Japan to build enough infantry to start putting pressure on Moscow. Allies brought UK and US reinforcementstriplea_Rus15 (1).tsvg and the battle could have kept forever. Allied was kind enough to offer surrender

                                            QuarterMaster (Axis+8) defeats Mogwai with a surrender on US turn Round 6. Germany was put on the defensive quickly with Russia coming out of the gate swinging and quickly setting up a stack in Eastern Europe with the help of Britain while the US was pumping out GIs through Africa. The RAF was sacrificed to wipe out a Japanese AC with planes that ran cover for the German Med fleet(1BB,2tranny) which escaped to the Indian Ocean and managed with Japan's help to maintain some presence in South Africa/Madagascar. Germany was reduced to manage Fortress Europa preventing landings in France and Italy while making sure a British/Russian combo attack couldn't win out Berlin. Somehow Japan was able to both put pressure fast enough on Moscow as well as block the US in Persia conclusively and an ill-fated attack on Berlin from the Brits put the Russians in a position to lose Eastern Europe and Mogwai bowed out. Thank you Mogwai for a fun, fast-paced and intense game which I didn't think I was going to win.ToC14_QuarterMaster_Mogwai_r6_us.tsvg
