@peirce Shit, tried to end combat phase so that I could post and let you see, and it rolled, since it’s the only battle - was an error. I assume you didn’t see before accepting! Anyways, posted the roll.
-
no worries
yeah just max def, take american tanks out b4 russian
-
Order of losses?
-
Wow, TUV swing of -52 from odds. Who’s getting the dice luck now…
-
yep, it’s about time lol
i guess this all the more proves my point… at some point your luck streak should run out, and instead of playing cautiously to secure wins more consistently–and that’s the key word here–you’ll end up losing even in situations where you had the edge. like in this game if things had gone sideways for you instead of me.
trust me. i’ve seen guys like you who like to gamble… great players honestly, but they can’t win consistently enough to reach and stay at the very top. it’s a dice game but with a lot of skill you can still play it like chess and have consistent results, like chess.

@axis-dominion You’re using you dicing me in this battle to prove your point about gambling? Ok, let’s see how this plays out.
-
you’re the one who attacked me, you made the decision to take that risk, which yes i consider gambling since 1) the overall odds were not favorable to you (along with a poor tuv average and 2) one-round strafe, while avg tuv ~0, is also risky… if you’re in a winning position, why take those risks?
-
i reiterate, i would not be taking such risks, and my overall ranking/rating over time proves this out to be a more consistent approach to winning. i’m not alone, as that’s how all the top players play. only way if you’re going to have any kind of consistent results in a dice game.
-
@axis-dominion Because it wipes out your ground stack. The odds of it going that badly in both directions were infinitesimal.
Anyways, hopefully this will stop your complaints about dice, since that went far more poorly than anything has for the Allies all game.

definitely helps to balance things, yes.
was that far more poorly than the yugo disaster? not sure, but i have to run for now. catch up later
-
later on today when i do my russian turn, i plan to attack anhwe with my russian inf + fig, if you can let me know your scramble decision ahead of time.
-
@axis-dominion You got a mulligan on the Yugo disaster, so it’s not reflected on the map at all.
I’m a bit confused about the point you’re making about my “gambling” here. Apart from my Italy move to soften up your stack in Yugo (which I agree was a risk, but part of a larger strategy, and was only +2 hits than odds), what attacks of mine have you seen to be hail-mary gambles that got me a result I didn’t deserve? Can you point to one that was a real game-changer?
