Better tell me “final answer” - I don’t want to start too soon
-
Aw, man, Australia blew up on you bad
-
bruv, i got diced to hell in both those 95%+ battles. :( that was critical for japan. Is unfortunate too, cuz I was really looking forward to seeing how u respond,assuming semi-average battle results on this critical move.
here’s an idea: what if I give u the win on this one, and then we re-roll Japan’s battles, playing on with the new dice results and treating it as a second game. kinda like double or nothing. wuddya say?
-
That’s too generous of you - I’m afraid I have you where I want you even if those battles go well for you. I’m willing to play another round or 2 to prove it. If you resign now, I will keep playing at least a round or 2 - I think that’s all I’ll need….
I’m eager for a rematch though too, so take your pick
-
If you opt for the rematch instead of continuation right now, I want the Allies again and I suggest you add a bid for the Axis
-
Oh, forgot to specify,
If you resign now and would like to continue with better J3 results, that’s fine, I’ll continue for at least several powers’ turns. Add back whatever units you want
But don’t go double or nothing -
haha. If you’re prospects are that good, even if the battles go well, why not take the proposal of double or nothing. I’ll concede now, and we play on it assuming LL battle results for those battles. It should be instructive for me and would be a lot of fun, especially if ur right about having me beat already.
Otherwise, we can just plow forward with this game as is. Hey, maybe the dice will swing wildly against you in a future engagement, evening things out. And if not–well then-- “I lost cuz of dice.” haha
Shall we continue?
-
Oh, the double or nothing proposal is definitely great for me - I was trying to protect you, honestly
I would accept it, but I think it goes against the spirit of league rules in that it would be 2 game results for one game, and I am in control of the league, so I have to decline.
However, I will prove my statement by continuing with your low luck results, but there will unfortunately be no league stake in it.
-
But I think you need a clean slate, and I would welcome a rematch
Either way is fine - you’re fun to play with
-
hey, so the proposal (just makin sure i understand) is to continue playing with low luck results, and simply not count the game at all for league purposes? I’d be down for that, sure.
If its gonna count, i gotsta continue, either with double or nothing, or we just ploy forward and see what happens. Probably more fun to do it ur way.
-
meh. lets just play on. it is what it is.
-
Sorry, I confused you a little,
If you resign now, then you can take low luck results or whatever you want, and I promise to continue for at least a while
Or we can rematch
Otherwise, like you said, don’t resign and continue as is, and hope that I get diced somewhere -
thats gonna take a lot of dicing. lol. sure, lets continue. why not
-
OK! Not sure if I’ll get it in tonight or not - it’s the big US/UK move and it looks like I got a decision back in a playoff game
-
I won’t give you low luck (without a resignation) but I am interested in giving you a couple planes back or so - I need to look the dice over again first
-
OK, I think you should have two planes survive Queensland - that’s still in the bottom 10%
NSW was “only” 95% going in, and you were still able to take the capital and 20 IPC’sThat’s what I’m comfortable with - where do you want the 2 planes and which type?
-
my choice wouldn’t be to save 2 planes. it would be to take the territory. so rather than 2 planes, I’d like to save 1 artillery and 1 fighter. while its still a horrible dicing all around, that’s very sporting of you. i appreciate it.
Mind if i have a look at my noncombat move with this new battle result? Will post shortly.
-
OK, that’s fine
