Texas Game
« on: February 18, 2007, 04:01:56 PM »
Well this is our second attempt at the game.  We played our first game as more of a test for learning the rule system and such so I consider this our first real serious attempt.  Its just myself (Allies) and my brother Hans (Axis).  Hard getting people to commit at this time but we had a blast.  Hopefully we didnt make to many illegal moves heh.

So here we go!

Allies 3/39

Hans was kinda Conservative in China so I took advantage by taking a couple of production territories.  Russia finished off Poland.

Axis 4/39  Allies 4/39

Japanese counterattack in China, 5 Allied ships cant sink 1 German U-Boat.  France fortifys for expected invasion.  I decided not to assist them with British units mainly because of the threat of an invasion by Germany.  Axis airpower in Netherlands made attacking the Axis fleet to risky of a move.

Axis 1/40

Axis finish off France.  I made a bad tactical error here I was rolling very well and whittled him down pretty signifcantly but instead of retreating back to Paris I elected for a 3rd combat round in which I got obliterated.  France surrendered.  We made a mistake here because Hans did not have 5 Ground units in Paris at end of turn (he had 4).  We didnt catch this until I was looking threw the photos).  Live and learn :P  I dont think it would have made much difference if I was lucky I might have had 1 more turn with them.  The French fleet though had their BB go Axis while the allies got a cruiser.

Axis 1/40  Allies 1/40

The naval battle took place in the english channel.  The French were successful in shooting down some of thge luftwaffe fighters.  This with some new British Spitfires I was able to win a decisive battle bring down nearly the entire Luftwaffe and sinking all their surface vessels.  The only British casualty was the BB Hood. Rest in Peace!  The brits also invaded western France to grab the extra PP. The Russians took Lithunia.  The Eastern Front countdown begins!

In Asia the Chinese mount another offensive taking back some territory and wearing the Japanese army down before retreating.

Axis 2/40

Hans surprised me a bit here by declaring war with the Italians.  He launched an attack on the British fleet in the Med.  Even though he had me outnumbered I managed to escape the battle with only a destroyer loss.  Both sides had signifcant damage to most capital ships.  Italians also reinforced their positions in Africa while the Germans easily wiped the British out of France.

Hans misses his chance in Egypt as I was able to get reinforces into theater in the nick of time!  ;D
I finally finish off what was left of the German merchant raiding U-Boat annoyance.
