Uhhh, I think the battle calculator screwed me. It had me winning in Russia 83%. I got crushed…

That will be difficult, if not impossible, to overcome…

[wheatbeer]

I always use: http://www.dskelly.com/misc/aa/aasim.html

That calc gives the odds as only 22.9% … If you want to scrap the turn and do something different, that’s fine.

[wheatbeer]

If you knew the actual odds, I doubt you would have attempted the attack, so it’s no problem.

[Odonis]

That’s kind of you. I’ll take u up on that if you’re ok. I really was surprised that the results were so much in the Attacker’s favour and should have double-checked it…

This way, the game could go either way instead of me conceding in a turn or two…
