Dude, this game we are really getting some crazy dice, aren’t we.

Zone 12 epic fail.
Phillipines epic fail.
Z14 truly epic fail.  Unbelievable, man.

I had a .98% chance of losing nothing, according to my calc.

I look forward to reviewing your 2 alternate plans and discussing.  It’s my turn in the tournament game, however, so I’ll be back later, probably tonight.

if you get some early luck against Gamer, there is an uncanny liklihood you will take even worse luck through the course of the rest of the game…  :roll:

[gamerman01]

Of your 3 options, I think the fighter buy is the strongest, especially since I am down to two fighters.  If I had 3 or 4 fighters, I could just build another carrier, but since I only have 2, I’m not sure what I’ll do.  I wouldn’t tell you now anyway, since US has yet to go.

Option C is good too, and is usually the way I go, although I haven’t played the Allies in '41 for about a year or so.

Another Phillipines moment.  2 more extreme battles to add to the list.  We’ve had several crazy results, and we’re not done with round 1 yet.

Lib - FTR (Egy)

Place INF, SS
Collect 17, 18 on hand

Naturally, the Italians put on the royal hurt after escaping the massive Z14 raid unscathed.  Ouch.
But in Bulgaria they fought like, well, the Italians.
