@Boldfresh:

i feel your pain.  it’s especially infuriating when almost all of the infantry rolls are 4 or less and the bomber is whiffing away.

@Botider:

shall we go for the perfect sweep? (now there’s a jinx…)

man, you sure called it!

[Botider]

naval battles are notorious for zany results… i expect that. it’s the little bitty ones that drive me nuts. makes me wonder how often during the actual war that something really unexpected happened, and ike went, “what the… ? how did that happen?” like in Great Escape:
hilts: “hold on to your shorts, bartlett. you’re 20 feet short.”
bartlett: “what? how’d that…”
hilts: “you’re 20 feet short!”

he rolled 12 6’s in a row with his tunneling tech! it happens…

i’ve got good news for you, you did not collect your 5 NO for italy on I1.  i will add it to your account and flag the NO on the board.

[boldfresh]
