Gamer (allies +11) vs. Bold - game 2 of 2

[boldfresh]

right on the heels of your excellent defense in kwangsi.  the story never changes - you simply have my number where the dice are concerned.  :|

[boldfresh]

this was two big battles where i needed to do a little better than average to hang in for awhile but as usual, they both go poorly.  incredible.  at this point, it’s pretty much game over since there is little to no chance of overcoming these two beatings.

[gamerman01]

I lose 2 carriers and a sub

[gamerman01]

Kwangsi was 60th percentile.  That’s not “excellent”

Round 2
2 subs, destroyer, cruiser, 6 fighters, 3 bombers
and
2 transports, destroyer, cruiser, 2 G fighters, 3 I fighters

Rolls: 2@2 1@2 7@3 3@4; Total Hits: 92@2: (2, 6)1@2: (6)7@3: (2, 3, 2, 5, 1, 3, 1)3@4: (3, 6, 4)

2 extra hits just to rub it in I guess

@Gamerman01:

you speak out of both sides of your mouth as usual.  it was excellent.

[boldfresh]

why don’t you at least admit the fact that after your early dice complaining, you have once again ended up with the better luck overall.

[gamerman01]

I don’t agree that I had better luck overall.  I have a couple extra units surviving in 95.  I think your luck for the first 8 rounds made it a game.  I wouldn’t say this if you hadn’t made that last post.  It needs to be a long time until we play again.

@Boldfresh:

you speak out of both sides of your mouth as usual.  it was excellent.

I resent that.  Why don’t you consider that it may be a misunderstanding?

I said I considered myself lucky that you did not get upper 10-20% or better.
Then you said I had “excellent luck in Kwangsi”.  I disagreed.  This is not “talking out of both sides of my mouth.”
