3 in 100 were 1 or 2 hits. about what i figured.  :|

[boldfresh]

@Stalingradski:

Reroll this one and I get a reroll of my choice, whenever, wherever… deal?

Is this cool within the rules of the league? If so, no problem. The dice are messing with you.

ok but not on a capital as i’m sure you would never have given me a second roll on sydney right?

[boldfresh]

before i agree to take you up on the reroll, let’s make sure you don’t get a blank in round 2 defense…  what’s your ool on round 2 so far?

[boldfresh]

i’ll just finish rolling it out giving you best defense.  if you kill all my stuff, then of course i will take you up on the reroll.

[boldfresh]

yeah, you crushed me.  that had to end up at about bottom 5% for me…  :lol:

[Stalingradski]

Ok, not on a capital fight, but anywhere else.

@Stalingradski:

Ok, not on a capital fight, but anywhere else.

ok.  that includes the amphibious assault portion of a capital fight.  appreciate the understanding - as you can understand, to lose the opportunity to take anzac out of the game for good, then lose the follow up fleet battle badly is a 0.1 PERCENT result that would completely crush japan.  1 time in 1000 at best is my guess.

maybe i can still make somewhat of a game of it now.  i appreciate the gesture, it’s akin to an all in poker pot where the players agree to run it two times.  i have never played low luck but i think it would be pretty boring.  i like the variability of the dice, it adds so much stategy to the game actually, but when you have an occurrence like this where a 1 in 10 even is followed up with a 1 in 100 event, and both battles were huge, it’s just going too far and i think this is a great way to handle it.  and out of the deal, you get a reroll of your choice, it doesn’t have to come after TWO bad events occur in a row.

cool - i like your style.

just noticed i forgot to delete the japanese infantry that died in the anhwe attack.  tried initially but it wouldn’t allow because i was still in noncom, so please delete him.

thanks

[boldfresh]

just noticed, 10 of the 100 rolls were 8-10 hits.  man i get some humdinger rolls, i really cannot imagine how i do it - seems like no one ever rolls those 1 in 100 baddies against me…  or maybe they do every 100 rolls, but i do the 1 in 100 roll about 1 in 10!!  :-P

i’m still gonna give you a heck of a fight in this game, even though i have japan’s hands tied.  i will do my best, so don’t let up!  :wink:

[Stalingradski]

My man, no worries. Even though this is a league, and standings count blah blah blah, you got utterly hosed with dice. I think it’s a fair trade, and you can feel like you at least have a shot.

You’ve set yourself up nicely to get India  :-)

And I’ve set myself up to take it back, but you’ll have 19 IPCs if you want it, + 8 for owning it.

And the fight goes on -

[Stalingradski]

I won’t let up a bit - it’s not in me.

As to LL - Infrastructure and I play a nice variant face to face (we’re playing again April 4th and 5th)… first six pips in every battle is a hot, the rest are dice. It means you can be sure to get a hit, and it takes a bunch of dice out of it… but the bigger the battle, the more dice.

I don’t like straight LL at all…

well, thank goodness, i ended up a couple units above average there, need a lot more of those!  :-o

i guess we didn’t specify exactly - does your whatever whenever reroll apply to when i’m rolling dice as well, or is it only for use on your turn?  if so, you can ask me to reroll?  :wink:

cheers
