scramble orders
L20 Gamerman01 (L) vs AetV (w/o Iwo NO)
-
Isn’t there cruiser, sub, dd in 113? One fig to scramble?
Why should one not scramble and give the Russian a shot to win instead of making this a suicide mission? -
And sorry for bumping in. Just want to get the right feel for „no ask“ situations.
-
No, he has a transport, destroyer, cruiser with 1 fighter. He moved the sub out.
I need him to say that he will scramble in case I get lucky and wipe out everything, don’t want him to be able to say he wouldn’t have scrambled. He IS risking his fighter.
-
@gamerman01 please scramble.
Thank you for asking. -
You bet, I’ll roll so if I hit you can choose a casualty
-
And… you got the 25% chance of no losses. I’m having a hard time hitting your good units so far
-
@gamerman01 sounds good to me
-
@gamerman01 wow

Why should one not scramble and give the Russian a shot to win instead of making this a suicide mission?Not a suicide mission when you have 2.58% chance of winning, and 22% chance that the sub survives
-
alright, ic.
-
Yeah, if it was 2 or 3 planes I wouldn’t have asked
And when you initially asked, you thought the sub was there, which would also make a huge difference -
So aetv is dodging some bullets. 81, Yunnan, 113. The start was very rough but I guess recently MARTI said it is payback time.
-
Oh, and not to forget TJ.
-
He’s dodging them like Neo
I thought the G1 was about average. No losses in other places like 91, 106, or Yugo and didn’t take everything into Paris, leaving some infantry behind.
Yes, that’s 3 battles where he lost less than average planes. That 4th German bomber is going to be a headache. Already is. -
I am really looking forward to seeing J3

Well, as I always used to say, “it helps to complain” hehehe
Of course it’s just fun and silly A&A superstition, but funny how often it’s true. Finally hit a plane.
I also used to say that if your opponent’s obsessing about dice you know he’s worried he won’t win, so there’s that too. :)
JDOW can attest I used to say that.
