@dawgoneit I forgot if it’s allowed for me to put the ANZAC fighters on Java since I just went in, the game allows it but if it is not allowed by rules then I would put them in Queensland

Top 25% result for defender results in basically his air surviving (maybe a tank or two)
And the British air force would get a crack at whatever’s left, so if it’s not too much, the Brits could clean it up…But I have enough defense to hunker down safely for at least another couple turns and make him keep sending most of his stuff east…
Will have to survey the world-wide situation again before deciding
-
i love a big battle, ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK…
er, i mean defend defend.
-
You’ve got a lot of high quality units sitting there….
-
german engineering is all about quality, not quantity.
too much talking not enough rolling.
-
I don’t think there will be much rolling…
But I need to do more meditating first…
And check the alignment of the stars… -
-
perfect clip.
soviets try to run their way out of the siege and run into defensive germans rolling lots of 2s forcing the soviets to retreat. -
The dice just destroyed me
Ridiculous

Ouch…
As I have told Bold, ErwinRommel, my brother and others; it is painfully unfair having to attack with 1s.

i just checked, you got screwed super bad. that was epic bad dice.
-
The bait was very juicy. It was the right thing to do, at least for round 1. Not sure about round 2, but I think there were merits to that too.
It’s a desperate move to put the entire airforce and almost all tanks for Russia to take a 50/50 shot on for the game, but it was a shrewd thing to do, and it worked out for Allweneedisrolls

arathorn - there is nothing unfair about it. it can go just as bad or worse in the other direction. just so happens that apparently tripleA skews against it - either that OR the last 5 battles of this nature that i am aware of have ALL PUNISHED THE ATTACKING RUSSIANS WICKEDLY.

It is not just triplea - in January, playing Europe, I forced the Russians (played by Rommel) to attack my German stack - and his 1s suffered greatly. I am a believer in odds and statistics, but there appears to be a bad omen over Russians attacking with 1s… I’ve never seen it work on a large scale… lol
-
You’ve never seen me play against Bold :lol:
-
i routinely was crushed by such attacks from gamerman. if only i had the dice shield that love does. i will keep on making that attack - it’s well worth it for the russians. course i don’t know where gamer attacked from - need to look at the map - but if he had a safe retreat then DEFINITELY.

the first round attack was not that bad for you, ussr scored 3 less hits than average, and germans scored 2 more than average. it was the 2nd round that went real bad for you.
you were doing way to good in europe, and i needed to take risks, on that side of the map.

That is very bad because the first round is so important as the effect is cumulative. That 5.5 unit differential was absolutely huge in preventing me from getting into tanks or aircraft by the 3rd or 4th rounds.
We’ll see what happens over the next round…
