@Booper lost the 50/50 on moscow. Unfortunate but thats how it goes sometimes, thats likely game over but lets play out another turn just to see if I can’t get some 1/1,00,000 dice to turn it around

[Booper]

@Jacob16

Yeah, rough one. I was thinking you might have pulled back after round 1, since I got 0 AA hits, and you’d preserve all your high value units. Happy to keep it going, still plenty of game!

@Booper If I pulled it back I think more fighters could’ve got there and the odds looked worse waiting till next round I thought

Yeah, tough situation with a poor dice on round 1 of attacks. First round is often very pivotal in these large battles.
