    Wow, I do not remember the WUK and Ukraine placement of R3. Looks like it was smart, but I have to figure out again what I’m doing here. Should have left myself a note. Must have thought it would be self-explanatory!

    Seems like I should have had AA in Ukraine… eh, I probably had it all figured out 2 weeks ago.

    That’s a tough one, not knowing your non-com, but I decide to lose AAA, infantry, thanks

    @gamerman01 Yeah makes sense you meant to have an AA in Ukraine and W Ukraine.

    Based on your misses in Belarus, I thought it best to retreat.

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Hope everything is good?

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    Doing awesome, other than my critical Russian misses!

    Work has been very rewarding and busy. After sitting up at a desk doing computer work all day, I don’t want to sit at a desk at my computer in the evening, many times. I did give elche an Italian move - wicked can opener on London setting up a high stakes and risky invasion. And he literally just posted something.

    You’re high priority for today or this weekend! Hope you’re good too

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    Um, what I meant was you’re next, not elche. I think I just made that one move vs. him since ours.

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Sounds great! Glad to hear. I’ll be away until Sunday and will not post any move myself before then. Take care :)

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    Thanks, that’s good to know, I’m working on it right now.
    I hope you do well also!

    That is a terrible time and place to suffer a 1% result. That combined with another loss (of infantry) in Leningrad and the G4 is crippling! And then there’s the healed battleship in 97. Uphill climb! :hushed:

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Oh wow! No hits of 9 dice rolled in Ukraine :O

  • 23 22

    @pejon_88 And I rolled 4/5 1’s :O
    Sometimes you wonder if MARTI is rigged!

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    I don’t mind too much - when I roll real dice (which is rare) they are super crazy too.

    But I realized it’s worse than 1% -

    There was 1% chance that the Germans would lose nothing through 2 rounds

    AND
    only a 2.36% chance the Russians would lose 3 or more units through 2 rounds

    Very bad time, very bad place. I can’t be upset at all when the dice handed me game 1 so fast

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    Having a good-natured, friendly opponent is far more important than getting the dice you want

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Oh wow!

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Haha, yeah there should be a 25-50-25% for good/average/bad dice right, while is should definitely be 100-0% for nice/bad opponents :D

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 scramble SZ39?

    J4.tsvg

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    No.
    I’ll probably need them all to try and defend Russia

  • 23 22

    @gamerman01 Makes sense. Also tried to make it into a bad scramble opportunity for you of that.
