FMERommel (Axis) vs Desert Admiral (Allies+16)

[FMErwinRommel]

Ugh!  Terrible dice.  With the Rus army in Karelia, I wanted to put immediate pressure on Novg.  So I put the main army in Balt instead of E. Pol.  So I attack E. Pol with 3 ground and 3 planes, that’s 6 units with power of 16 vs 4 units with defense of 8.  I rolled 1 hit and Rus rolled 2.  I rolled 1/2 th hits, even tho I had twice the power.  I would have retreated rather than risk the TB if only 1 Rus was left.  But 3 Rus inf combined with 3 planes could reach any of 3 Ger terr.  Odds round 2 were I’d just lose my 1 remaining ground unit.  But no, Rus rolled 2/2.  Rus overall rolled median of 2 and Ger median of 3.  But I’ve assumed an aggressive naval position and have ftrs to scramble and planes in position to attack.

Yeah, I would’ve probably brought an extra land unit or 2 in.  Gotta be ready for bad dice.

I had intended to build my 2 subs in Norm in sz105 and sz110, but just added them to my fleet without thinking.  I will edit on Jpn turn.  It won’t affect Rus sub in sz105, as my subs can’t attack without outside assistance.
I didn’t want to use up more ground troops than Rus had in E.Pol, as Rus could overwhelm anything I put there on Rus’ turn.

[Desert_Admiral]

Sorry, but since I moved and no mention before,  you can’t do it.

[FMErwinRommel]

I understand.

I planned Jpn complex moves late last night in local move.  Then painstakingly recreated this morning in forum mode, then wanted to make a change, but had already ended combat move without saving.  Now you re-edit Rus back to Amur.  Now I have to recalc and adjust again.  You tie up lots of Rus inf and I have to tie up lots of Jpn units.  I was planning on holding back some units anyway to be near the border, until Rus moved farther west.

Good dice.  So many combat and NCM moves.  I meant to hold back a unit for NCM, but accidentally moved it with the rest of the fleet into combat.  So I can’t undo it to move elsewhere in NCM.  Triplea is frustrating in that one small mistake can have grave consequences.
