Well, if you’re playing in local mode instead of play-by-forum mode, how am I supposed to know the true dice?

Nothing stops you from rolling a battle, until there is the desired outcome. For example 0/6 hits in South Africa was 2 hits below average. I’m not saying you intentionally cheated, but please understand that you have to use the MARTI dice server, so that these problems just do not occur.

I will accept the battle this time but expect you to use the MARTI dice server for future turns.

[variance]

Sorry.  I didn’t realize that it was using the internal dice thing instead of rolling with MARTI.  When I tried to post it I got a error that said “missing refresh header” or something like that.  I didn’t know the dice were missing from the email until I just saw your post.  You can see the rolls in the history and I swear I only did it the one time.

Anyway I did get pretty lucky with the battle of South Africa (you got no hits), so I will reroll that one at low luck as my freebie just so there is no doubt.

shore bombardment is 2@3 and 2@4, so 2 hits plus 1 roll at 2.
invasion is 1@1, 6@2, 4@3, 2@4, so 5 hits plus 1 roll at 3.
that would wipe you out so no point rolling them.

You would roll 5@2, so 1 hit plus 1 die @4
Rolls: 1@4; Total Hits: 11@4: (3)

The other battle in Syria went down pretty normally.  I attacked your bomber and 1 infantry with my 2 bombers - killed them both but lost 1 bomber so I think that’s ok.

[variance]

OK so I will edit off 2 japanese infantry in south africa.

Thank you for rerolling that battle, but you don’t need to waste your low luck reroll for that. Keep it :-)

I believe you, that you only did it once, it wasn’t an important battle anyway. I just wanted to point out to you, that you should always use the MARTI dice server by choosing “play-by-forum” instead of local game

[variance]

OK thanks.

I skimmed through Italy, since it has no impact at all.

Just edit every NCM you would have made.

You also had 3 IPC, so if you wish to purchase an INF, go ahead.
