How to add a friend?

[LtlMacMcG]

I can see his name (ASQUADASQUIDS) but not his user number and I need both.

Anyways...we are playing this epic game...coming on round 17 and I still am not sure who is going to win...gone back and forth so many times....

When the game is completed you will be able to view his profile and add friend from your match history

And for some context? There was a time where Germany was surrounded on all three sides by British. Not a lot. But.....it was that bad.

The problem was I had Japan running rampant. So much so he had to divert his American forces or Moscow would have fallen.

No b.s. Both Africa and East Asia fell to Axis...went BACK to Allies then BACK to Axis.

And not because of bad play. Just a good game.


Complicated and great game.

(and to be clear..I mean...Germany had like 20+ stack and fighters surrounded by 2 stacks so...it LOOKED bad...but not as bad as it looked )

For anyone curious: My strategy was a 'bleed Britain Economic'......and...it worked. Instead of rushing Russia...I choked off Britain. now...it did make ♥♥♥♥ REALLY hairy for Germany in the short term.

But in the long term......It puts the long game on the Axis side instead of the Allies side. Which is very interesting.

By just taking all their territories in the other continents or were you bombing as well?

No bombing...I do not like strategic bombing. While I am sure it has it's place....i hate how much it relies on Dice rolls and luck. I focused on cutting off British IPC in Africa, Asia and Australia with the long term goal of making it a LONG game....IN FAVOR of the Axis (where normally long games favor the allies)

And when I say focused..I mean REALLY focused...as in...I was barley offensive on eastern front with Germany at all. Just enough to keep Russia from being able to get cute.

LOL - keeping Russia from getting cute. I like that. I assume then that the US was concentrating on shuttling troops to Europe and not harassing Japan in the Pacific very much?

While I was waiting for the end of the current season to avoid games with potential stalling (not that I have actually experienced it yet, but you read the posts), I played hot-seat against myself to see if I could beat me :) Kind of hard to not tell yourself what you're going to do next, but I found if I just played each Nation's turn as that Nation and didn't think ahead to how I would counter the moves I was making, it became easier and was actually fun thinking ýeah suck on this move, me - how are you going to deal with that?'

Long story short, I did find that if Japan was not too troubled by the US and Germany retained it's battleship and transport (not that I didn't try and sink them - terrible rolls) then the longer it went on, the more Axis was gaining the upper hand.

It's still a match in progress, but I think I'll win and I can suck it, when I beat me.

So Update. I beat me - who'd have thought? Yeah England getting cut off from it's inter-continental income quickly becomes totally ineffective, but Japan accomplished that (and eventually took Russia). Germany had to back off and defend as the US (eventually) landed an unopposed 20 strong force in France and was knocking on the door. I left it too late in the game to have the US Pacific Fleet re-built. Ha, I deserved to beat me, for that one.

In any case, I like the bleeding UK idea.
