Since I’ve given rerolls to UK, China, and a turn redo to the US, I hope you don’t mind if I cash in Germany’s.

Germans hit low and the Allied combined fleet hit exceptionally high.

I hope that is an acceptable reroll.

round 1
Germany rolled most likely outcome, Allies rolled 1 under most likely outcome.

round 2
Both sides rolled 1 hit over their most likely outcome.

round 3
Both sides rolled most likely outcome.

I can’t give you the true odds for the battle outcome as a whole since aa calc calculates defending subs at 2, defending carriers at 3, attacking carriers at 1, and only gives carriers 1 hit point.

Sure. I needed just one more hit early to make it a good fight. Figured roughly 50/50… sure liked the first round rolls though!  :-D

Seriously starting to feel like there is nothing that can be done with the Allied cause. Am I just too pessimistic?  Reading in the forums it seems that everyone is starting to think it is now skewed toward the Axis. I tend to agree. Just nothing you can really do to stop the tide.

Regardless, will carry on to see as I am curious if I am still just playing too aggressively or if it really is difficult for the Allies.

As i see it, no way to stop Italy, no way to stop Japan, and no way to stop Germany… seems pretty obvious.

Anyway, I’ll get the ANZAC and Russian moves in tonight I think.
