Perhaps a rematch is required then?

Ahh, I agree. It also messed me up becuase I ended up waiting by that first oasis probably longer than necessary to even things out. I think another game on Oasis is in order.
I also think we should play it again because it is sort of like your first game on AOR, when you get a bonus of 7 and so go straight for the ports, only to be run right over. The next game you adjust your strategy and try again. In all honesty, we probably should have seen it coming, as we know the rules well enough. But it was great foresight and timing on denominator's part to know when he had enough guys to make the run, and he did so in a way that did not attract attention until it was too late.
My only problem with Oasis is that I can see that we may experience two or three people getting close, and then it coming down to a few good dice, and no one else is close enough to break.
Also, I am not in favor of changing too many other rules. I think that AA will work better and worse in different situatiions, but the point is not to tailor it to one style on each map individually. I think just the same way freestyle works better on some settings than others, it is the same no matter what map you play. Also, we have only played a very small number of AA games. Who knows what other play styles may emerge?
Finally, I am interested in setting up a team AA game, to try it out.
*EDIT: Here it is, trips on Africa, flat cards, chained forts, no fog. I used an old AA pass, PM me if you forgot.

PS - it took me a few attempts to work out the old pw didn't have a space in!
Woah! Fresh bloodtotal_destructio wrote:Hey, this sounds like a great idea!
I'm new to the site but I'd love to try out a game like this if possible.
And why's it taking so long to get anywhere officially?
Evenif there are some peculiarities on certain maps, surely thatjust adds to the stratergy and variation that AA adds to the game.
