@crockett36 said in crocket36 (Allies+39) vs Simon33 (X) OOB:
@crockett36 Not sure your policy, but rolling the dice is the cut off for me.
I’m a bit more lenient. If dice rolled wouldn’t affect the decision, I don’t mind.

Hmm I had the typing for the noncombat move all done for not taking a hit from either sub. Once I took the hit in Z50 I had to start adjusting to a different plan!

So I’m still taking it in the teeth on Russian/German fronts…… great… :-)

I need everything I can get. :-). Billy and Zhukov have been kicking my skull in on that same front. :|

Makes it hard! Sometimes I call it “the only front that matters”, although I realize that’s an overgeneralization…. Still… often it is.

seems to be true in all the games I’ve played!

I had to be careful with my wording because it seems I might be able to break through on that front and yet still lose… Only time will tell us for sure what will happen in this game! I will have to review my first 3 rounds to see how Japan got in such hot water so fast in 1941. All I remember now is the debacle at Z50 on J1.

yeah you did lose a cruiser in Z50 and 2 fighters I think. That’s not a good J1 but not terrible. I just had one against TDJ where I lost 3 fighters but at least I killed everything, as did you. The real murder is when you lose a bunch and fail to clear Z35, Z53, or Z56!

Been there. Sent 2 fighters to 35, and 2 fighters to 56. Lost 3 fighters, clearing 56, and destroying nothing in 35. The “destroyer of death” came back to bite me in round 2 or 3, downing yet another plane. Can’t remember which game this was, or the result. But the only game I lost this year was against JWW in league play…… Failed to destroy anything in Z2, but forget a lot of the other results… Anyway, yeah I’ve had my share of bad luck in 35 and 56 before. I still think they’re good attacks - I always do them.
TDJ is charmed in our game. My J2 was bad as well, he hit 5/8 on defensive twos (really 5/9 but there was one round when everyone missed but then his infantry hit the next round so really 5/8) and downed another fighter with his Brit destroyer. Pretty bad UNlucky streak I’m taking right now. Maybe you better take a little more time before making your next move here :wink:
Hehe, I guess I’d better make a point to go tonight, then.
