X-DAP-05 TeamBoldDutch vs. DairyQryn

[Cow]

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.

[boldfresh]

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…  :?

[dutchmand]

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.  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.

[dutchmand]

Oops, looks like i will have to add that to the UK map….

[dutchmand]

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.

[Cow]

you can retreat transports from an amphibious assault?

[boldfresh]

Uh… yes  :roll:

[boldfresh]

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.

[boldfresh]

Cow stop stalling…

[dutchmand]

@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.

[boldfresh]

Cow for being so “good” u know surprisingly little about the game…  :roll:

[Gargantua]

Infantry can’t retreat from Amphibous assaults.

But infantry aren’t part of a NAVAL battle.

That’s the reality. The retreat is completely legal.

[Cow]

OK that makes sense.

I am thinking of waiting for veqryn to be able to play. Is that OK?

[Cow]

I mean the whole point of this tournament was one experienced player teams up with a less experienced player. Veqryn only played global in these tournaments, before that he only had one or two pacific games. I have not told him exact buys to make etc I just pm him things he could do.  So far I been playing to keep options open.

This is the point where we kind of have to pick one and go with it. If I commit to something then that is it, the next 3-5 rounds gets decided.

[Cow]

Plus I think you guys need a break from all the crazy stuff I do. Maybe something
