thank you for the game
BM Surfer (L+15) vs Farmboy (X)
-
@surfer just wanted to check to confirm if the turn is done
-
to be clear I’m asking just because you posted the combat move but not the final turn. I’ll probably do Germany now as I dont think there is any ncm France can do that would change the move, but if htere was an ncm you forgot, I imagine you could add it on Russia.
-
actually just realized its the French combat move. not ncm. I’ll wait for you to confirm or finish the turn.
-
@farmboy Yes, I was done. Sorry. I didn’t need to move the French.

if you go all in on defending N Italy, and can manage to wipe out my units in France and S France without using units that need to be in N Italy this is what I get as a combat:
-
@farmboy you do have a couple of other choices here too, but just thtought that was interesting. And I’m pretty sure its the largest combat I would have ever had if it happens.

@farmboy I concede. I can’t really defend anything at this point. I can continue until the German turn if you want to conduct the fight of the united armies. But I don’t see how I can make it much worse than a 70-30 battle for you–and more important, if I do, I lose everything else.
Choice?

@surfer I’d certainly be curious about that battle. But I probably wouldn’t take that battle yet either. To get the 30% odds you have to pull back all the air from Iraq and I think that forces you to retreat from there so i get closer to Egypt. I think you can probably do better than 30% if you set up a blocker for some of my fast movers further east. But I think each turn my odds should improve a little and I would just wait until victory was more guaranteed in n Italy just because I can bring in 23+units a turn. So I expect I would eventually get the win that way. But of course you have enough on the board that you might still be able to capitalize on a major mistake or dicing
-
@surfer I’ll just add that I’m happy to keep playing but I’m cautious enough that I’m not going to rely on 70% odds, so we would have to play it out longer to see that kind of battle
