15L G40 hobo (axis) vs procas (allies +13)

[hobo]

my infamous luck strikes again  :lol:

you hit pretty well there, this is why I always try to get people to play with LL

[JDOW]

The only thing striking is your ridiculous dice whining.

You attack at 74 and 73%.

74 ends up in a draw and the 73% battle ends up above average.

I am well aware that in your twisted world of probability and rigged MARTI-Dice engine winning 4 survivors when 3,2 is average is the standard outcome and not winning at 74% is a world wide conspiracy against your A&A play.

There was 46% that one of those battles would not end well.
And that is what you call ironically your infamous luck?

Man, this was a slightly below average outcome.

Why do I write here and crush with thread without being involved?
Because I did not give up the hope and still give a decent chance that one day your view will clear up if you get reminded to it often enough ;)

[JDOW]

combined with france, yugo and 106 outcome that g1 was even good!

sorry you can’t see how marti rolls sequences of highs or lows instead of truly random numbers. he only missed once in z111.

on ‘average’ I would have 3 extra german air.  on LL I would have 4 extra german air.  those are ipcs very critical for germany since the axis cannot afford to engage in negative attrition.  yes I did will all those 3:1+ battles but there were 100% with LL.

hey I’m still free so why don’t we play a game seeing how you have time to troll other threads.

No trolling, but curing;)

1. a random dice engine that would always create average results without having streaks would NOT be random. Extreme events belong to randomness. Random is NOT the same like low luck

2. I doubt you would have always have 4 more air with low luck. It seems you kind of calculated attrition rolls too much in your favor

3. 2 does not really matter. I now see that you be default take a low luck outcome (with rather better than worse attrition rolls) as the bar and that EVERYTHING below that bar is part of a rigged dice engine and your personal bad luck which only hits you.

Sorry, I take it back. There is no cure. You believe in your twisted (its wrong but I know you dont believe that) world of probability.

Good LUCK!;)
