veq, i’m sorry if you think there was no reason to send up a ftr that had even odds on your bomber and that could have prevented the loss of 2 russian infantry due to the bombing raid. if i were you i would just be happy about the luck, but if this is some attempt to taunt then at least own it.
-
for the record, you guys are now operating with the equivalent of at least a 100 ipc bid.
-
actually this is why I play low luck
both for me, and my opponent’s sakes
-
low luck would have made NO DIFFERENCE in this case.
-
but you are correct, with low luck, japan would be down at least 4 more fighters and that’s just for starters (we lose only 1 ftr in z6 early with USA and he loses his ftr). and i china he loses at least 2 more aircraft when he hits the china stack.
whatever.

it’s like if you go over to your buddy’s place for poker night and he’s all time dealer. just so happens he wins 90% of the tournaments, but surely he wouldn’t be stacking the deck right??? :lol:
-
it’s all cool with me, i love to pursue the badge of honor of winning a game despite the dice thwarting our every move… and it could not be more true than it is now. :-D. you guys are the only ones with something to lose in this one. if we lose, it’s obvious we were simply run over by dice (can anyone say atlanta axis??) but if we win, cow will probably be laughed off the site for losing with the best dice imaginable. i LOVE IT.

wow Japan might not even matter this game.

i was not attempting a taunt. sorry if taken the wrong way.

correct, but low luck players also try to avoid battles where the low luck plays no part.
in a game where you take lots of little but very profound risks, it is very very easy to have a single die come up the wrong way, effectively destroying your plans.
i would not have risked the fighter because while the upside is possibly stopping the effective bombing away of 2 russian infantry, the downside is possibly losing moscow completely. not a risk i would be willing to take.

I have no problem winning or losing a game on luck. It tends to happen, especially when the axis are putting out a high volume of attacks every round.
Veqryn has traditionally had bad luck in our games. I actually thought his bomber would get shot down on his first bombing run attempt. It got two bombing runs for good damage and a fighter, this is great!
~Major showdowns await.

Go forth Veqryn! Conquer!
You got used to global fast.

i didn’t think dice could possibly be this good. :lol:
-
We shall take advantage of our ridiculous luck by pushing all the extra pieces to attack!
Moo!
-
as everyone who knows anything about this game knows, the early luck is magnified so much more and i’ve never seen so much EVER! so boy is it going to be embarrassing when you lose. :-D

cow, if you are cheating, you are only hurting yourself. :lol:

you are on a truly epic string of luck, regardless of what veq seems to be trying to justify to himself. if you win this, i highly recommend investing your winnings into some lottery tickets, since you have a better chance of winning the lottery than you did to win this game. :wink:
-
how bad would you strategy have to be to lose when you have a 100 bid with the axis?
-
I had better and worse luck early on in a game.
So far in this tournament most my luck came late in the game rather than early. If I have to be lucky to win, so be it. I am playing the game the way Larry Harris designed the game to be played. He wanted people to attack, roll some dice, and have fun.
Plus I am used to playing live games. No save game. Cannot wait and think too long about every turn or the game ends before a conclusion. My strategy guides are designed to set the axis up for attacks and to aggressively expand… I do not have long games, my games end before that can occur.

these posts should really be in the thread about how and why you lost the game :|

You should have given us the allies @ 11 especially if you wanted to play a longer and more conservative game.
