Glorious victory!  I mean Glorious dice!

[gamerman01]

That is not what I want to see when I check on a game

[gamerman01]

3 techs in 6 rounds?  That’s fortunate
Balanced out by lack of tech with Japan I suppose

[gamerman01]

That was sick.  A 50/50 battle boosted by heavy bombers and then to get completely dice-raped
At least you’re 3 spaces from Moscow

Great, I have only a 56/40 shot on your huge tank column which shouldn’t even be there…. Will probably lose

[gamerman01]

Correction - 26% now that you moved AA in.  I can’t even counter-attack.  That is sick.

[gamerman01]

Correction - about 10% - it’s radar

[gamerman01]

@Gamerman01:

and then to get completely dice-raped

And then YOU get dice-raped for a 2nd consecutive time by the Russians in China!  Craziness

No, I was in the middle of it

[Seador]

ah so.

as for this, which I think is directed at this game:

I rarely lose India, and have never lost Moscow a single time yet.  I have never lost New South Wales.  I have given away London on a silver platter and am VERY confident I will easily win that game without getting London back, maybe ever.

Here I thought it was the will to fight 50/50 battles against a better player!

[gamerman01]

Well, my battle scores add up to 59, which is approaching your unbelievable score of 79 in East Poland….

What was that you said about fair and uneven or whatever?  I think the dice have just plain been crazy and we’re both getting the good stuff on O

[gamerman01]

@PGMatt:

Yep, that’s directed at this game, you’re right.

Here I thought it was the will to fight 50/50 battles against a better player!

“the will to fight”? I don’t know how to interpret that - I’m not sure what you mean.

Yes you should and did take a 50/50 and it’s not your fault the dice went wildly in your favor.
And yes, you are still in very deep trouble.  You just lost 4 more German aircraft

[gamerman01]

I have been extremely close to losing Moscow at least twice.  Allweneed literally resigned the game on the German turn that he was going to take Moscow with overwhelming odds.  However, he correctly deduced that he would lose anyway and gave up right before wailing on Moscow.  So I STILL have never lost it  :roll:

The day is certainly coming though
