jon_j_rambo Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Okay, last game Liam gave me a defeat, I got a little risky with the Allies & a Norway invasion after I had a good French campaign as the Allies. That is the only defeat for Rambo 3 Trilogy. Bid went high again on the (1:1:8) system we agreed on. I've got the Allies with 360:360:2880 kicker. I need to take care of my business this game.

Iron Ranger Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Good luck Liam - I think your going to need it. Interesting that if the allies can delay Germany for 2-4 turns they can really make them pay for taking France, but if the Germany can get to France quickly the frogs will surrender before May 1940 90% of the time. Nice read guys - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
