Do you play the underdog side? Yes, no or maybe? Why is that? |
| peterx | 25 Sep 2016 7:02 p.m. PST |
a) I always play the underdog, if I can.
b) I often play the underdog side.
c) I sometimes play the underdog side.
d) I usually do not play the underdog side.
e) This is a silly poll question. I refuse to participate any more is this silliness. |

I'm usually attracted to the side that lost or that won but at a great cost. I suppose on a subconscious level, it helps give a built-in excuse if I lose :-) |

I often choose the underdog too, Weasel, for the same reason. |

b – In a game with an actual underdog, that side that the most interesting tactical challenges. |

I usually pick the underdog, unless it is an army I don't like playing for some reason. |

What underdog armies do you often play? |

About half the time. We do the FPW and we take turns playing the French who are the ultimate underdogs. |

I'm trying to think of my current projects, I don't think I have any underdogs?
My current napoleonic project is set when all sided where about equal. Great northern war, sure Sweden was out maned, but they usually had a giant leg up in quality. WSS, pretty even SYW, pretty even Pyrrhic wars and 2nd punic, also even
And so was the Italian wars (part of it) |
