Ok,
It is official. My first loss is in the Low Countries.

Rishat seized all objectives by Round 16 and I seized all objectives by Round 22.

Rishat is a strong player and will be playing someone in Round 4, France who has not lost a match.

I, however will be playing someone with at least one loss, so beware.

It was fun and I am thoroughly enjoying this Tournament. Thanks for all the participation!

Thank you for an interesting game!
You are a very strong opponent too! Before that, in this scenario, I won everyone for both sides. This is my first defeat in the Low Countries for the side of the Allies.

Report IronCouncil vs. garycooper101

IronCouncil Axis victory turn 15 (plowing the fields of Hauts-de-France with German Tanks) / Allies victory turn 15 (drinking red wine from Naziskulls IN Germany)

Thanks for a great game, garycooper101 ... Huzzah!

Hmm, was away on an extended weekend with the family and see I’ve been eliminated.

10 hour warning seems a bit harsh and maybe it should have just counted as a loss. I mean ppl do have jobs and families besidd this.

Gl to all.

Round 3 has been posted since the 7th, maybe contact goose and see if you can resolve this situation.

Absolutely warhomer, I completely understand, I will simply count it as a loss and set you up for Round 4, France.

Hope you enjoyed your time with family.

Sorry to hear that. But don't get set back because of single player savegames. Probably everybody who plays videogames knows the feeling... ey... I was pissed off when I noticed my SNES records on the cartridges started vanishing.
But in the bigger picture (I'm talking the really small bigger picture of a video game)... it doesn't really matter. It's not like you load up all those savegames and rejoice when doing so anyway. It's just a negative sidenote. Your biggest achievement in this game is organizing this tournament. Far better.
Backup is the lecture. I "learned" it several times... and as we speak I think of all the more important things like footage of my kids which I haven't done a backup off... Hope you learn faster.

Oh.. and no burned down houses during tournament season... that's also a nice sidenote.

Sounds like sabatoge, some one doesn't want to face you:p Though seriously, it sounds like enough to make one sick. If you have need of assistance to get up And running again. I'm sure there are enough people here will to give alittle. I for one

Result vs drkjell. After long battle drkjell as axis won in turn 20. I didnt manage to take map as axis. Congrats to drkjell good luck in next rounds

Hi All

Does anyone have any problems with finishing your turn? Cause when I finish mine and PC starts uploading data I get that weird "Failed to connect to server. Please check your Internet connection.". Weird because I can do everything else (including posting this . Don't really know what to do. I already reboot Windows. And this is my 3rd attempt to finish the turn. It should look like I'm cheating , even so it is my last turn before win.... Yeah this is most frustrating part, I'm winning and I just need this one turn.

UPDATE 3/19/2018 :
Seems it all fixed by itself.

I am pleased to report victories in the Low Countries as the German and Allied players. Good luck to slimdawg101 in future rounds.

Early (unofficial) result. StahlRat has won as Axis vs. HowlingEmpath allies. I made him work to the late turns, but could not hold out. In our other game, as I advanced as the Germans, he absolutely punished me in the North, killing units and pushing me back to a defensive posture behind the Meuse river. In the south he has held Sedan the entire game. Only through some creative German airborne/scout moves behind Allied lines put me in possession of Abbeville, Lille, and Calais - has the game even been close, otherwise StahlRat has dominated me the entire match, it is inevitable that he wins both sides of our match. So the pressure is on for me not to lose my next match...

My pride would love to believe that StahlRat was cheating! He treaty me poorly in our match.

I really enjoyed the game, I played for allies vs AI only once before our game and that attack on the North was tried against AI first. I just want to tell you that AI didn't have even a single chance I've finished with it somewhere around turn 15 . But you... when you dropped your para and started taking those cities I thought that my plan might actually fail. Good game.

Results: sn0wball * vs Muwattali *

I won both games, taking the last French victory hex during Turn 22 as the Axis, delaying the Germans until turn 25 as the Allies, with two victory hexes staying in French hands.

These were some of the most exciting games I ever played in MP. We had two long, drawn out, fierce and gruesome battles over the very first line of defense, which cost both sides countless units. I had much fun in smuggling Belgian infantry through the Ardennes to mess behind German lines. Maybe that bought me a couple of turns.

I'm sure your Belgian infiltrators did just that sn0wball, congrats!

Ok, it's official StahlRat vs HowlingEmpath, StahlRat won both scenarios.

HowlingEmpath, thank you for interesting and challenging games!
