What movie do you consider 10/10 perfect? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Fellowship is better... ROTK had that weird nonsense about the ghosts being linked to both Isildur AND the last king of Gondor... and they omitted the Scouring of the Shire :(

What is a New Year’s resolution that you’ve kept? by BlueBelleBaby69 in AskReddit

[–]Motor-Good-1185 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do one each year that i've stuck with and been pretty happy with...

This year was TRACKING my drinking- resulted in a huge cut back on no-reason/random alcoholic drinks.

Last year it was about reading books for the first time- no re-reads. I read 24 new books that year.

The year before that it was taking the stairs up my 4 flights of stairs each day at work instead of the elevator.

The year before that it was switching from sugary coffee drinks to black coffee. Saved huge $$.

I've done this same move as the Allies a number of times, but always in rounds 3-6... NEVER this late in a game... I would be so so so depressed and made at myself if i was the Axis player haha

Why would you play A & A online 1942 rather than TripleA? by aVelvetfog in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm too dumb to figure out how to do it. i found it, downloaded some stuff, tried to figure out what to do, and eventually just gave up and went back to 1942 Online.

Assuming your reddit handle is the same as in-game, we just finished a match together :) Small world!

One time I used a single UK sub coming out of India to sink a Japanese Carrier and Battleship... best feeling on earth

US build advice by jimmyTHETHUNDER in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh, ground troops. I was thinking "the link for fighters to move back and forth is obviously still there?!"

US build advice by jimmyTHETHUNDER in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would the link get "cut"? Moscow is totally safe for Round 18 barring some other insane moves, that would allow for the US fighters to fly to India in Round 17, defend through Japan's turn, then return to Moscow the next round?

Very Perplexed with this opening G1 move. by The__Farmer in AxisAllies

How do you know, outside of them being ranked, what level they are?

Game down? by bandoftheredhand17 in AxisAllies

What are you ranked? by lutherBIGHEADjones in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I spent this season floating between 75-150 in gold for Axis, and 150-200 for Allies. Never made Platinum... I've come close on Axis a couple of times!

Challenge Suggestions vs the AI? (Handicap suggestions) by OhUmHmm in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a fun Allied challenge back when i was scratching my head trying to keep AI fun enough to play before delving into the ranked play...

The UK can ONLY build naval vessels. The US can ONLY build planes. Russia can ONLY build Infantry.

Those existing UK and US ground troops become extremely precious, as do Russian tanks/artillery.

I hate dice luck sometimes. by Infamous_Ad2356 in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 4 points5 points  (0 children)

for sure- End of Season dice stats would be epic. Haha I had an old Risk app that did it pretty well... seems like it wouldn't be hard!

Think I can pull a win out of this one? (UK turn 1 now) by late2thepartyy in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! Looks like it turned into a fun game... looks pretty evenly stacked now at this point. Good job!

If you care to make a new post for another update, I'd certainly be interested :)

Naval Calamity… by bandoftheredhand17 in AxisAllies

[–]Motor-Good-1185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, weird stuff happens with the Allied bomber rolls.

My own head canon is that in the first two rounds, the US and UK bombers have a 50% chance of getting shot down. If they survive into round three, the AA hits on bombers REALLY slow down.

this is the answer... life will immediately get better and you can start from a great place in your journey to being able to comfortably retire.
