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
-
@farmboy I wouldn’t engage in the battle in your position either. You have income and time on your side. And then add to the fact that I can’t really make advances and will be pushed from the Middle East territory by territory, I see no point in continuing.
-
@surfer this was a very good and hard fought game. And if you want to see the dice roll I’m happy just to rush through to the German turn to see how a battle of that scale would actually play out.

@farmboy sure. Seems like we should make roll. I won’t be able to post until tonight. However, since the game is over, you can make the appropriate allied moves.

will do this slowly so you can be around for it. Here is the battle. 63% odds with 357 units vs 314. Again, wouldn’t risk this in a real game, but don’t believe I have ever had more units involved in a battle.

Your AA hit above average and my first round is a few hits below average at 89! Right now the box for casualties goes below the screen and I can’t click accept. Will try to figure that out later, but you are welcome to continue the next stage.

@farmboy ridiculous. The game designers didn’t expect such a big fight and the click button is off screen😱😁 I was hoping to see the graphic of all the dice.! 🤣
Not sure what you wanted me to do. Just max d

@surfer I have to get back to it later. If you can figure out how to get the click button, feel free to proceed.
