22 Dec 23 UTC | Spring, 1960: Good luck! I’m on vacation currently so might miss a turn, hopefully not though. |
22 Dec 23 UTC | Autumn, 1960: We could pause it for a few days? I've just arrived home for christmas, plan to spend time with my family. |
22 Dec 23 UTC | Autumn, 1960: And, of course, good luck!! |
22 Dec 23 UTC | Autumn, 1960: GameMaster: NATO voted for a Pause. If everyone votes Pause the game stop and wait till everybody votes Unpause. Please consider backing this. |

29 Dec 23 UTC | Autumn, 1960: Hey, hope you had a nice holiday period. If you want to start again, I'm ready |
01 Jan 24 UTC | Autumn, 1960: You as well. Let's go for it. |
01 Jan 24 UTC | Spring, 1961: Good luck!! |
01 Jan 24 UTC | Spring, 1961: What do you think of my maneuver in Norway? I sometimes play those moves as NATO, most of the time it works and you don't take Sweden or I take east germany, but if you don't cover Stp then I miss a build and you get the opportunity to build the important arctic fleet. |
01 Jan 24 UTC | Spring, 1961: I was really considering not covering Leningrad but the risk kinda isn't worth it. I think it's a nice move, wasn't expecting it. |
02 Jan 24 UTC | Autumn, 1961: I really like to play it because if it works, you've basically won the northern europe theatre. Without the arctic fleet, the USSR falls quickly. And now, see, I can take both Sweden and get east Germany back 100%. Or I can try blocking istanbul, or trying to get a lucky move to moscow or albania, then lowering my chance to get east germany. You should try this strategy sometime, if it ends like this (and it often does), you have an early strong lead in europe. |
02 Jan 24 UTC | Autumn, 1961: Well damn, it sure does. I completely blundered there but it was heading that way anyway |
02 Jan 24 UTC | Autumn, 1961: Yeah I had some lucky guesses here, I admit. But this doesn't mean the game is won. If you moved to Istanbul or covered India, it would've been different. And of course if things go wrong in the first phases, NATO is behind a unit. |
04 Jan 24 UTC | Ok all else unconsidered I'm happy with the tactics on that turn |
04 Jan 24 UTC | Yeah, you're getting Egypt and at least india or australia, perhaps both. Good moves. You're even making me worry a little. If you're lucky, I might get stuck in a cat-and-mouse game in europe and America whilst you roll over the board. Nothing as certain as last round. |
04 Jan 24 UTC | Darn, gg. Good series we had, certainly learned a lot about this map lol |
04 Jan 24 UTC | Okay, now is the next phase, let's see: I'm surprised you didn't cover japan. But apart from that, good moves in the Indo-Pacific. I'm extinguished. I believe that I have 17 centres now, so this round is over. But I'm curious how it could've played out if I didn't get japan now. Would you be able to swing your fleets to attack North america in the pacific and defend Iran/Egypt? I believe so... If I didn't have Japan, you woul've been able to prevent me from getting it. You'd probably be able to get Alaska too... and then perhaps a convoy to north america. That would've probably be the end of me. |
