I'm still trying to figure out the PE vs. Brit matchup, here's an example of how NOT to fight Brits on Semois, as well as how strong Pantherspam is.
jimpey was not aggressive enough when he had the upper hand, hence I had enough MP to use Panther Battlegroups repeatedly. To him I am sure it felt like Allied War Machine was on, except with Panthers.
I read your rifles ready blog about this game and what made me side with PE was this statement.
"So strong was the unstoppable feeling of impending doom,I was almost ready to quit"
I'm glad you decided to continue fighting for your visions of doom were not without basis as he had a ton of manpower waiting to be unleashed, that taking advantage of popcap had made him suffer.
I had a similar game like this as PE against a Brit on this map. I nearly got locked in my main base but managed a push.
Jimpey had some epic resources floating in this game. He was simply not being aggressive enough at the right times, and pop cap came and bit him hard. gg.
