Your dice are nearly perfect Yoshi!  How do you do it?

I think you made a mistake actually.  You should have taken both infantry into FIC like I was afraid you would.  You may have TAKEN FIC outright and gained the NO!  :-P

[Yoshi]

whereas I thought that 18% of killing a fighter was better used than 33% to kill an infantry on defense,  I believe that the other infantry was more useful alive (specially in an area where uk cannot produce).

I’ve already been lucky enough, trying it too much and it could fire me back ;)

I give up.  i was >50% to sink your fleet here, which may have given me a chance.

[LuckyLindy]

I am sorry Yoshi, I am going to resign again for obvious reasons.  Nice start to your league season!

Cheers

[LuckyLindy]

Your fleet was vulnerable and I felt with the tough start again, it was possibly my best chance to get back some of the early losses.  Perhaps it was not the best move to make, but the odds told me that the chance to sink a battleship and 2 transports while risking the cruiser and submarine which were dead soon anyway was well worth it.  But to lose my entire airforce while killing nothing in Z7 is most certainly the end of the game.

Cheers
