I believe, just staying with everything in Bryansk may have been optimum. Attacking would have probably crippled Germany too much. But I did not want to put such a game decisive battle on the table yet. I am too curious to see how things develop the “classical” way.

I have to agree with your decision here, I think it’d be too dicey too early for such an important game, and you’re doing quite well so there’s no reason to gamble. as you probably know, just a few days ago I had a similar result against oysteilo but even higher and better odds (99% at 40 average score), but ended up winning with a dismal score of -88, and that cost me the game. such an extreme it seems to me… but it could just as well go extreme the other way! so it’s basically a game-determining gamble in my opinion, one you needn’t take given you’re doing good so far.

Sorry, I edited a mech from California to Morocco. I just didn’t move the units right the turn before although it was a no brainer to have that read to be transported into the Atlantic.
If you are not ok with that, please replace mech by an AA.
I also made a late edit in the Pacific which I believe is ok as it has nothing to do with any dice.

One thing. Would you allow me to move my us bomber fro. London to scotland along with the 2 frenchies and 2 aa?

[oysteilo]

@axis-dominion Third party people say I was too bold. So an undeserved win for me awarded by Marti, and most likely poor judgment by me. But once again my point has always been if you score under average, even just slightly (like a 30% result instead of a 50%) below you are very soon in trouble. But I will let this die now and instead follow your game “silently”

I need to replace the commanders of the submarines that have been assigned with Convoy damage. Their performance is underwhelming!

@axis-dominion Third party people say I was too bold. So an undeserved win for me awarded by Marti, and most likely poor judgment by me. But once again my point has always been if you score under average, even just slightly (like a 30% result instead of a 50%) below you are very soon in trouble. But I will let this die now and instead follow your game “silently”

if I had scored even a bit under average, broke even, or even a little loss, I still feel I would’ve been ok with it. but to go from a calculated average of 40 to -88 is just too extreme. an almost 50% aaa hit rate (5/12). I got diced, plain and simple. may that game RIP haha

sorry, but to me it sounds a bit like you’re saying that you planned for me to get diced hard, so your decision was justified. I mean, feel free to play your games how you wish, and make such decisions in your competitive games, but I imagine you won’t get away with it consistently–far from it–unless somehow you’re able to bribe Marti her highness :)

in any case, I appreciate playing you as always, and I look forward to our next game in the near future. and I think I may just take the bait again if you offer it!
