Ottoman Empire Turn 8 Complete Game 35.tsvg

I finished caluclating the dice swings for land and air battles. When this game’s over, I’ll send you a Word document containing all of my notes on this subject so you can calculate these numbers for yourself.

So far, the numbers are:

Central Powers land total: +6.56 swing
Allies land total: -6.56 swing

So the Allies have 6.5 fewer units than they would on average. When you consider the hundreds of land units that get created and destroyed, this is close to nothing though. It’s certainly not enough to erase the huge imbalance this game provides in favor of the Allies.
