Perhaps you should give consideration to toughness of DICE as well as OPPONENTS in you rating system  :-o

Hehe - yeah really

I’m developing methods for measuring luck in a game - but it’s very difficult.

Cruiser defends on a 3, not a 2, but you rolled 2 4’s so I’ll let it go

duh ??

[Battlingmaxo]

Like I said before those dice really screwed me. I saw that move coming. In my disgust I overlooked the possibility of moving the Alg inf to Lib which

may have made it a littl more difficult to take both.

And so I might have been better off not taking Algeria anyway.  If you had moved to Libya those 2 units would still be alive - alas…

still worth the 9 pt IPC swing.  I thought about taking 2 to egypt but I wanted to save aas many units as possible. I figured a trade would be almost as good but never expected to whiff so badly.  Almost all of last years allied losses came from bad dice in Africa.

0.4289% chance you repel me in Finland like that (1 time in 233)
Maybe your luck will start to turn?
