@Adam514:

Haha yeah I would prefer LL if it didn’t make the Axis advantage even bigger…

How so?

It’s not common knowledge? By my estimates you need to almost double the bid in LL compared to dice to get a decent game… I haven’t had much difficulty winning as Axis against Allies with up to 32 bid.

Oh… Well I didn’t know. Can u say more about why this is so? I mean LL is LL for both sides… Maybe because they have so much aircraft? Or Germany can make better openings?

[Adam514]

Dice in initial rounds matter the most and the attacker is better off in LL than dice, so apart from UK1 and China it’s mostly the Axis that are attacking and so they make the greatest use of LL. Also, since luck is a lot less volatile, it favors the Axis since they have 2 big nations compared to the many small and scattered Allied ones, and so they can choose exactly how much air they are willing to lose and it makes it very hard for the Allies to trade and weaken the Axis.

Will you allow an edit here? It was indeed my plan/hope to retreat to Sikang if the battle went well but Ill accept your decision
