Spring, 1905: Dang, that's what I get for not previewing my orders | |
Spring, 1905: Forgot to switch Burgundy back to support | |
Spring, 1905: Yeah, that may cost you. | |
Honestly though, I think leaving Denmark was your biggest mistake. | |
You're a good enough player you can't lose at this point, holds entered | |
Leaving denmark was poor, sure, but I wanted the build in case I lost tunis and didn't get naples | |
Honestly, I made a bunch of mistakes early game that were worse than my usual play | |
There was no way for you to lose Naples. You needed to take Kiel, hold St.P, and keep an Italian center this year. It was a long shot, but guessing right in the south was possible, so it came down to using both fleets effectively in the north. Good game in any case. I'll stop rambling now. |
|
I have no issues with your rambling, I'm still an incredibly new 1v1er. I've only played 7 games and only with the same person. Talking to you is as good an opportunity to learn as any other. That said, I feel most of my issues this game came from earlier blunders I saw coming, but didn't respond in time to. |

I'd agree to an extent. Letting me into Kiel really hurt you. Locking down Scandinavia was nice, but it cost you Germany. The other thing was that you never put an army in Pie. That would have really forced me to come at Italy harder, and kept armies out Germany or Turkey. |
|
Well, in part, I didn't want you to come at Italy any harder. With a few more turns, I'd have broken through down south as a result of your lack of navy. | |
Right, but you don't need to break me in the south to win. You need to keep me from getting centers too fast. | |
Indeed, but if I hadn't bungled Kiel, and as a result, StP, that would probably have sufficed to stall into a southern/northern push | |
I find I very rarely take the advantage in the middle of the board in FvA, preferring to focus south or north. |
