George (North) vs. Klaus (South)

[Klaus]

Dear George,

at the beginning of the first match mistakes are normal. Now I don't find any operational or positional mistake. Everything is fine, for now.
And I don't expect that it will be an easy match...

South turn 3:

B706 - 712 3P
B715 - 513 6P
S117 - E116 1P
S118 - Es116 1P
Ess116 - 157 4P
S157 - 158 1P
S157 - 156 1P
E130 - 131 1P
S132 - E131 1P
Es131 - 132 1P
Total 20P

Kind regards

Klaus

Hi Klaus,
I am not sure at all if this is a good plan, so let’s see what happens.

B824 - 523. 4P
B822 - 868. 5p
S213 - 214. 1p
S213 π K414. 10p

Total 20p

Do your worst! But have fun doing it

Also, not sure if it is possible, but “George” will better than “Dragon Breath” I think. Can this be easily changed?
Thanks Klaus,
George

[George]

I see a mistake already - sorry,

Please revise the last move to

S214 π K258

Hi George,

it's possible to change the user name. It's done.
This is the first part of South turn 4

S158 - E157 1P
S156 - Es157 1P
Ess157 - B513 1P
Bess513 x Gn505 3P
Bess505 - 507 2P
Ess507 x K258 2P
B507 - 506 1P
Ess258 - 219 3P
S219 x S217 1P

Recapture?

15P so far

You have lost some pieces. But you should consider it as a training...

Kind regards

Klaus

[George]

Hi Klaus,
What I am learning the most is to pay closer attention to recording/moving the pieces properly. For some reason I did not move your ship B715 - 513, and it was still positioned on B715 as I made my plan. All I can guess is this was a stealth ship sailing under a dark sky. Yes, a learning experience.

S219 x S217 - recapture refused

Thanks for keeping a smile,
George

[Klaus]

Hi George,

can you leave the board standing or isn't it possible at home? It would be better ....
Alternative: Next time I could post an image of the position (Grand Conquest tool) so you can compare ...

I continue the turn 4 of South:

S217 - Es219 1P
Ess219 x E216 2P
S216 x S218 1P
Es216 - 215 1P

Total 20P

Kind regards

[George]

Hi Klaus,
Question, now that your piece is in my castle, can you elect to raise that drawbridge (with two moves)?
In the current situation, during your turn can you raise the drawbridge protecting space 215?
Thanks,
George

[Klaus]

Hi George,

yes, that's true. I could raise the drawbridge, if It's necessary or if I have 2 points going spare.

Kind regards
Klaus

[George]

Hi Klaus,
Here is my move:

N220 - 247. 5p
N210 - B15. 4p
S248 - 267. 1p
B523 x B506. 5p
B868 - 523. 1p
16p

Let’s see how long I can survive!

Happy Thanksgiving Holiday from the US.
There is of course a turkey dinner planned.
Hope your day is going well.
All the best,
George

[Klaus]

Enjoy your meal, George!
A similar holiday is the "Erntedankfest" in Germany, but in October. It's a Christian holiday. The altar of the church is decorated with food.
Tuck into the turkey! Normally I prefer fish, but today we have to improvise.
