EXP G40 Game 3 Trout vs JCat
-
@johnnycat Good morning JC. My thoughts are:
- No to modifying the game. Will hurt your learning curve and believe it or not the Axis has a slight advantage in this game but it's very slight.
- For a beginner it's easier to play Allies since they have alot more dough to start off with and you get to see how things play out a bit before Commies and Hot Dog-eaters enter the battle.
- Axis, it takes awhile to figure out how to use those two big advantages it has. First, G has a huge number of special killer units. Secondly, J starts off with a large navy and ridiculously large air force.
- I do agree with you that this game is headed for an Allied victory most likely. Because you really smoked me big time in our first game, I played my very best in this game and that's what you got from me.
- You are welcome to surrender if you want. I have frustrated Beelee a few times when I surrendered around where the game is now if I could see no path to victory. It's really up to you because I want to help you learn.
- I think it may benefit you for the next game to be you playing Allies since with your big Pacific trick which I wasn't prepared for, you didn't really get a feel for playing somebody as the Allies past a few turns.
Anyway, just let me know what you decide sir
-
@trout OK well First off: THANK YOU for your comments.
Second : I did say that I still want to continue this - and if the pace slows down or, better yet you invade Spain, I might have a chance
And yes I sure do need more experience.
But WE gotta play this BBR now too!
Here is me crushing the Pacific as the allies, the jap player has his entire fleet cowering in the southwest...
There are big tournaments for this game and you get 6 hours to play it and 8 turns ! Plenty of additional units and rules that, like our game, opens up plenty of possibilities Just a thought...
-
@johnnycat Game is definitely not completely lost for you. You have huge stacks in Middle East and Indochina and I don’t have any idea what I should do about them exactly. Okay I will get started on the Allied triple play turn when I have a chance. Lots of honey-dos for me today
-
@trout Thanks for the encouragement- I KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THEM heee heee
And with my lady talking to me now - even if still accusing me falsely of taking some items - I am hoping to restore that and have my own "Honey Dos" again. I feel that having a good relationship / marriage is the most important thing for many of us in this life and I will work hard to get her back
So enjoy them and know you are a very lucky man ! -

Japanese regular : 1.33 ANZAC regular : 1.50Oops. Forgot that with the Takeover, need to do ANZAC/France also. Will post turn file when I can. Triple A seems to be having some technical difficulties right now
-
I have some math/performance questions as I look through the battle results. And with that MS in math I earned I pretty much expect to have reasonable "luck" or don't bother playing certain games...
so just to learn:
-
Is your sub immune to naval mines? In the med.
-
Where are the battle results for the invasion of normandy - seems like you would have needed 20 inf and 5 fighters to get close statistically but then again I often get fooled by this game's special pieces. either way I am rather curious to see the details because as I recall I had like 9 forts there right? with 9 inf AND AA gun. So you would have lost something like 8 attackers round one not counting the average loss of at least 1 plane. I'm just now starting to get curious about the details because I need to refine my expectations to match any special capabilities that this game often throws out there. Anyway, I would have invaded Spain.
-
Similar questions about the general lack of performance in the Pacific. Again I want those thousands of little mini subs that the WW2 books all say were terrifying and how any actual invasion of Japan would have cost a million souls, etc.
Finally. - I need a bid, hahaha. Seriously as we continue to play games I think I will need some extra units to just blow because otherwise I actually have to pay attention. And who wants to the do that?
-
-
@johnnycat Naval Mines attack surface ships so yes subs are immune. I lost six infantry in the Normandy attack. You had nine fortified dudes so all defended at 3 with one AAA. Your AAA didn’t hit but you did roll about average overall. I always post Turn Summaries so you can see the combat results in those
-
@johnnycat In this game, bids are not needed since it’s evenly matched. Unless you want to play a game where both sides get extra kwan. That may be a possibility
-
@trout I was trying to be funny :).

Good Morning. so how many guys are here?
-
@johnnycat Just one
-
@trout so I don’t have to do anything right? Use the editor? I just want to send a couple guys and a plane so it’s just one paratrooper guy and that extra red dude always worries me
-
@johnnycat Right. That's an automated process so don't need to do anything. The red dude is there just so TripleA understands that the para defends with a 3 on first round. If for some reason, he doesn't die in the first round. The red dude will automatically go away.
-
@trout WOW what a challenging turn. FINALLY a super interesting turn that I sort of know what I am doing and have been hoping for.
I need to know how the panzer generals work beyond what I read in the manual. if one is upgraded to Waffle House can I still use it to command regular tanks ?
Or can I undo it back to normal from waffle?
Can a regular panzer general command 5 tanks that include a Waffle House tank?
Same question with the Oberst guy commanding Waffle House Panzer Gren and Waffle House Artillery. I need to know if a non-waffen can go into these groups?
I have two of these groups of Waffle House oberst, waffle art, waffle Panzer grenadier... but each group needs 4 units and I am not sure where to get them so I want to use a non waffle guy if possible. I could just buy two more and assume some will die in battle right?
And if you could please confirm the benefits of these little waffen groups? Seems like two of the 4 members get extra dice.

@trout one more question
Can I upgrade the west Germany factory back to being big size and use it same turn?
All these factory options still confuse me.
-
@johnnycat Once somebody goes through waffle training they cannot go back. Also no mixing of normal Germans and Hitler-fanatics in armies. For your factory question, yes to can upgrade and no to same turn
-
@johnnycat for waffle armies, the grumpy Gruppen hits double and one of the units in the army hits double also. So six dice rolls total
-
ok so I can build 3 guys in Western Germany then build the upgrade to regular size and build 10 guys the next turn?
