so you are telling me that I did what was needed to stop germany and you took london because I missed @5 aa fire?
-
so yes, actually I’m pretty proud of my moves to removes 5 of your units for 2 of mines.
You did attack with 80% chances of losing, that’s pretty funny. But knowing how lucky you are, I guess you didn’t care?
-
AA Fires is flawed in Low luck as well. You can’t possibly get to decide what you lose. I wonder how others do with their AA fires because when I think about it it should remains 11 rolls @1 since each fire fires up at a specific planes and thats why you can’t get to chose which you lost so maybe you lost your bomber. too late for this game but I guess I did the same in the other game and that really needs to be adressed.
-
Yes, but if you do it by plane then the attacker could lose 3 planes when in LL there could never be more than 2 planes lost out of 11.
-
Doesn’t matter, could lose 11 in normal luck as well lol. Low luck lower overall luck in the game but if it breaks a certain law we must go arround. Maybe it should be different rolls for each type of planes then?
-
Assuming I lost 2 planes (as I did, since you had 1 shot at 5 or less) and my calculator is a bit screwy, so let’s pretend my shore bombardments only hit one defender (since my luck seems to trend that way). I chose 1 fighter, 1 tactical bomber as the planes lost. Given my druthers, I would just lose two fighters since the TBs can be paired with tanks.
Now, it cannot really handle tactical bombers well, but here’s what I have:
3.5 rounds of combat on average.
Most likely outcome: 1 Armor, 4 Aircraft remaining.
Odds of success: 100%
To counter the fact it cannot handle tactical bombers (having to be paired iwth a fighter or armor, you know.) Let’s run it again with -1 bomber and see what happens:
4.4 rounds of combat on average.
Most likely outcome: 1 armor, 1 strategic bomber
Odds of success: 68.3%
What I take that to mean is that virtually everytime this battle is run, Germany wins with at least 1 ground unit left to take the capitol.
Straight up odds, from a different, less trust-worthy calculator (but it can do TBs correctly) I get (ADS): 84.4% odds, but that calculator is going to assume the Strategic Bomber is the last unit lost.
All in all, despite your being able to time it perfectly to kill 5 units and then land and retreat into London again, the battle for England seems to always be a losing proposition for England. I don’t know why, but despite ones best hopes and dreams and plans, Germany always seems to get it if they go for early in the game.
-
Can the allies win ever without London…?
-
Yes. I’ve lost a few games even with London in my hands. One major effect can be an American fleet convoy raiding England, that removes 8 IPC from Germany a round right there. Also, America can shuttle troops through Ireland into England, eventually liberating it.
