@gamerman01 hello again.
I have several emails, including the local map dl
but no email with the forum link sigh
Well cow looks like your luck knows no bounds. I sure hope for your sake you win this one cuz I dont know how you could ever live it down with if you lost with the dice smiling on you so favorably early… :lol:
hey Dutch look at it this way now it’s like we gave cow a 30 or 40 bid with the axis. Which is probably about right to give him a chance to be competitive. :wink:
My mental math said 10% defense. Probability of going fighter for fighter above 50%. Payout of 33 ipc (more like 26 because the transport would die on J3).
So it seemed like a good move to make.
Yes, you need luck to win games. Always need luck, not many people will turn down a scramble in that spot, so it comes down to luck for both sides!
That is just how dice games go.

I dont begrudge it I am very glad. I dont want one of your quick flame outs… :lol:
let’s just say some need more luck than others and leave it at that
Probability of going fighter for fighter 70%+, which is 20% better than a 50/50. That is not something people turn down.
Odds of losing the fighter without killing a fighter compared to odds of winning and the payout… it is a good risk to make.
Yes I have had some real fast league games. Nothing wrong with a quick game.
I don’t want a quick game with you cow I want to grind you into the dirt slowly :evil:

ok cow, let’s hope your luck continues to hold up for a while… :?
All:
The game glitched on the retreat on the tnp. It sent it to zone 5 with 5 infantry loaded on it. I deleted it and tried to add it to z16, but of course, you cannot add a loaded tnp to the map. Â So, I added the two inf to Midway and the tnp to z25, but:
THE TRANSPORT AND 2 INFANTRY ARE IN Z16 WITH THE REST OF THE AMERICAN FLEET.
Oops, looks like i will have to add that to the UK map….
edited adding the tnp and 2 inf
Remember please, they are in zone 16. Hopefully I can move them to a zone that allows natural movement soon and this will not be a problem for the rest fo the game.
you can retreat transports from an amphibious assault?
Uh… yes :roll:
If u had 2 ftrs and both had hit in the second round (which they surely would have) then the second hit would have killed the transport before it had a chance to retreat.
Cow stop stalling…
@Cow:
you can retreat transports from an amphibious assault?
There was no amphibious assault… the naval/air battle had to fought first. A transport can retreat from a battle the same as any naval or air unit by an attacking power. As Veq’s TripleA constantly reminds us, attacking or defending units have to actually hit a transport in order to kill it. Thus the reason triple A asked me if I wanted to retreat the transport after the inexplicable occured and my 9 punch all missed and your 8 punch hit twice, but not thrice.
Cow for being so “good” u know surprisingly little about the game… :roll:
