@JWW:

china inf are 12-20 at 2….WTF after round 2, where have all the yellow units gone? Game over for Japan?

Just threw in the towel against simon…dice are killed me on G2…same dicing versus @2 D. lost 2 bomb’s, 2 tac’s and 3 fgt’s attacking 2 dd and trn and didn’t clear trn!

uggghhhh, hard to invest time into this when games start like this.

Wow, that dicing you told against Simon sounds insane, how is that possible?

In our games Japan seems to have a rough time in the early turns on both sides. You were supposed to lose 3.5 planes and lost 2.5 above average. on top of that poor defense rolls now during my turn in Siam and Yunnan. Definitely a rough position now Japan. Also, not do DOW puts UK Pacific on a hybris. However, the US boys need to watch now for longer.

But still, those 2.5 planes (or let’s make it 2, you couldn’t have complained in case you lost 4 planes) are certainly not a reason to throw the towel. Plenty of battles will follow where planes might be exposed to AA or attack single DDs. Those 2 planes can easily be compensated later, although it is of course true, that early bad dice are the worst!

Still, as soon as the calculator says 100% you know the odds have been >99.5%. Those battles deserve the title “bad beat”
