322 1/10/2023 9:58:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message Well GG and G-Nite. Cya on battlefield later this week

321 1/10/2023 9:52:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message >>>I came close but never really that close<<<

We were getting into CP AV territory there.

320 1/10/2023 9:51:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message MY worry was that you had High Seas Fleet in reserve...

BUt, I knew if I threw enough seeds to the wind, then you wouldn't have enough to flank Cambrai, only single space attack it.

319 1/10/2023 9:49:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_your_base_are_belong_to_us

318 1/10/2023 9:48:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message THank you for playing.

Give me a day or so, and I'll set up a game with myself as the CP...

317 1/10/2023 9:48:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message >>>Did you get my reference last time?<<<

I confess I did not. whats that from?

316 1/10/2023 9:47:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message I think your land grab race to the sea was cool, but Ostend is needed on your flank...

315 1/10/2023 9:47:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message Had a strong feeling I was a goner when Italy entered early and i blew good cards to plug the holes instead of liquidating Ostend. This game is a bit more unforgiving to the CP when there's a hiccup.

You played well in west. Hyper aggressively never really allowing me to fight there on my terms. If CP can get dug in at Amiens, its Game Over. I came close but never really that close

314 1/10/2023 9:47:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message Did you get my reference last time?

"All your bases are belong to us"

313 1/10/2023 9:45:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message For the historical record...

GE 6 retreats to Liege.

(GE 9) perm elim due to overstacking.

312 1/10/2023 9:44:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message Wild end there. Quite fun once I came to terms with my hand and prospects. My great hope was i could some how draw you into a tit for tat that would keep you in LW with me. Accomplished that but lost 2 armies OOS. Ooops!

309 1/10/2023 9:42:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message That would lead to me bending the knee and saying, good game.

Message from Central Powers:
Flip GE1 and GE12

The thing with Landwehr is its greatest value is when you have 2 flipped armies. So I was trying to set my defense up this whole turn with best chance to get 2 flipped but you spoiled my plans! Now only way to get 2 full armies back is to retreat!

265 1/10/2023 8:30:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message >> I'm retreating to Brussels<<<

259 1/10/2023 8:20:00 PM Summer 1915 Allies Message Um, why not elim (GE 12) and elim repl GE c., flip GE c to negate, leaving an escape route for next action? Then you can evacuate GE 2, GE 7 and have GE 1 and (GE c) perform rearguard...

258 1/10/2023 8:19:00 PM Summer 1915 Central Powers Message Btw, in my mind this game was lost 2 turns ago so just trying to make hay of it. so experimenting a bit

315	1/10/2023 9:47:00 PM	Summer 1915	Central Powers	Message	Had a strong feeling I was a goner when Italy entered early and i blew good cards to plug the holes instead of liquidating Ostend. This game is a bit more unforgiving to the CP when there's a hiccup. You played well in west. Hyper aggressively never really allowing me to fight there on my terms. If CP can get dug in at Amiens, its Game Over. I came close but never really that close
