Looking for HtH opponent, medium-low skill. :)

[AshFall]

I need to start a rocky training montage if I am ever to face off against my favourite opponent Will and not get completely stomped again .

So, would like to play the 1939 campaign. I'd say I'm medium/low skill, the best game to be had will likely be vs someone of around equal skill.

Can commit to a minimum of one turn every other day. Sometimes faster.

Can play either side.

I'm up for a game as the Allies. Set the game up & PM me for a password.

[AshFall]

You're on.

Will do!

[AshFall]

And we're off, first turn away!

[AshFall]

Ouch, lucky there with two diplo hits on 2+1+1 chits in 4 turns... :S.

Forgot to keep an eye on the graphs. Oh well, I think I might have to amend my skill level to just "low"

[El_Condoro]

How big were the diplo hits? Unusual to have so many so early but if they were 4-5%, it's not such an issue. He'll have to spend 50 MPP to top up his chits.

[AshFall]

Not too big, 7+7%. Not great though.

Really not used to the new SC, definitely feel like I'm playing a whole new game. In the old one I never saw investments in spain diplo, so it caught me off guard to be sure

[El_Condoro]

I have had very good luck in my current game as the Allies - 15% on one and 17% on another (first 3 turns of the game), so Spain is all but out of the Axis reach now, at least until Italy mobilizes and France falls. In most games that I have played, Spain is the focus of diplo in the years leading up to US mobilization. AFter that, there are other targets and the diplomatic status of Spain has been determined, one way or another.

[PJL1973]

Must admit I was surprised to see Spain move more quickly than usual. Which is good for me.

Yeah, heh, I am making a lot of mistakes this game. Mostly down to not being used to the balancing of economy and costs, unsure about new events, unaware of the SC2 "meta". Unclear about the forces each nation deploys, how much is needed to do certain things.

Lots of newbie crap basically.
