15L G40 Me1945 (Axis) vs. hobo (Allies +16)


  • just to let you know in advance, the US transports got the carrying units mixed up - there should have been 1 unit on each transport in sz42 but both units got grouped to 1 transport.  so the transport going to borneo is actually carrying an artillery and the one going to paulau is carrying 1 infantry and 1 tank.

    I am sorry, Hobo. As far as I remember Russians rolled above average in the important Bry battles - would that lessen the anger?

  • not angry at you, just pissed at marti’s non-random rolls which I have noted forever now. I’m sure if you played enough games you’ve noticed marti rolls strings of numbers instead of random, so you will see a lot of lows or a lot of highs, or even strings of the same number way too often.  for example just this round, the first round in sz125 I rolled 6 6 6.  in the last round you rolled for your last 6 dice, 3 4 3 3 2 3 3.  so far this game wasn’t really too horrible but you should see my other games.  I’ve seen 6-7 of the same dice rolled far too often for probability to justify.  that’s why I prefer playing low luck using marti.

    also that bryansk battle you came out 1 unit down on average, well within the mean for the amount of dice rolled in that battle.  in the prior round when I attacked belarus, I got totally hozed in the first round so the bryansk battle following should have been more of a toss up, but I actually wanted you to attack so I could wipe out whatever land units were left.
