The World at War ELO Tournament

[rafaelmbaez]

Hi guys, where I can see the ELO ladder?

[ElvisJJonesRambo]

Game ended:

ElvisJJonesRambo (Axis) lost to Fafnir (Allies) ---> Norway Gambit. Used too many ground units in around Denmark waterways, still didn't matter. Not the way to stop.

Game ended:

ElvisJJonesRambo (Allies) lost to Fafnir (Axis) ---> Sold out England, he took Manchester. Done.

***** Retired *****

[Marcinos1985]

No retirement for you Elvis, just a couple of days/weeks and you are brand new.

One slot available for Axis player, free elo to take. I don't want to be picky, but a person whom I didn't have an honour to play is especially welcome. [:)]

@Marcinos1985 --- Out of the 4 games resigned. Our game was just getting started, the rest were gonna be losers. Once the momentum is lost as Axis, it's game over. I appreciate the love, but something is just bugging me. My life, feels like I have to walk on eggshells everywhere I go, because someone gets bent by the fact I use carbon, mask not over the nose, cannot say this, cannot believe that, etc. The Forum is a complete bore. The General Forum, is like a saltine cracker, without the salt.

This is Matrix Game's property, they have rules, I get it. Would be nice if they opened a Sub-Forum, called the "No Snowflake Branch" or "Smackline".

Will be a hard one for me, as he seems to be a fast learner.

Hi I had three games going and then real life prevented me from any activity for a long time.
Surely all three games should be registered as defeats for me.
My opponents were Cpuncher (Axis) - calcwerc (allies) (He would have won anyway, great play)
Ilto4 (allies) - calcwerc (axis) - calcwerc loose
earlydoors (allies) - calcwerc (axis) - calcwerc loose
in the two other games they were far from finished, but apart from the time aspect they in both cases deserve the win anyway
Sorry again, no ghosting, simply no time. Will unfortunately not be able to play again for quite a while, hope to get back next fall/winter.

[EarlyDoors]

Hey Calcwerc - will do and thanks for posting
stay strong buddy

[ThunderLizard11]

New ELO match: boudi (allies) v. ThunderLizard2 (Axis)

[pjg100]

New ELO match: pjg100 (Allies) v. Fafnir (Axis).

[petedalby]

Game ended: LoneRunner (Axis) defeated petedalby (Allies) in May 43.

A very poor defense of Russia sealed my fate. A new game will be set up once I resolve a connection problem.

ELO Rankings - May Update: http://scwaw-rankings.s3-website.eu-wes ... onaws.com/

Total Allies 67

[rafaelmbaez]

LoL Fafnir... pffffffff

[MattShadowlord]

Matt (Axis) vs Cicero77 (Allies) is under way. The only thing worth mentioning is that Canada and Australian joined the war in December 1939, which seems later than normal.

My game vs Marcinos (allies) is chugging along well. It looks like Marcinos knows every event before it happens and when to hit where, so I'd say he has a huge advantage but it should be a good learning experience.

EarlyDoors (Allies) vs Petedalby (Axis)

Wish me luck!!

Game finished - Axis Victory in October 1943

An 8 sub wolfpack and 2 Maritime Bombers with fighter escort flying out of Norway, cut off the UK->USSR arctic convoy
USSR overrun in 1942
Japan took Kunming and Chungking also in 1942 causing National Morale swing from 80-115%
Every attack afterwards caused 3-6 points of damage
Really good amphibious assault took Calcutta isolating the Indians in Burma and ultimately taking all of India

USA/UK second front captured 6 french ports but could never quite land enough troops to overwhelm the axis

There was a nice moment when there where troops at the gates of Moscow and Berlin on the same turn

It was a cracking game and a nail biting finish - thanks very much.
