When you play, you can just do all the rolls you need for any battle. Unless your a good hacker and have cracked the dicey, it won’t make a difference ! :lol:
Ok, it is just that sometimes in FTF games I have seen people be selective on their losses based on how many hits they receive. You know, they hit back very well and therefore can afford to keep the bomber and lose a tank vs not knowing how they would hit they may choose to lose the bomber first on most instances.
Anyways, I will listen to you roll all the dice at once from now on.
Don’t ! what you’re doing is perfect. It’s the way it’s suposed to be !
I don’t know if we are saying exactly the same thing. The rules actually state that the Attacker rolls first and the defender immediately chooses their casualties. Then the Defender rolls and the attacker gets to choose his casualties. Here, the attacker and defender roll at once and then both choose casualties. This deviates from the rules and gives an advantage to the defender. Granted, most of the time this doesn’t matter, but in naval battles and land battles with strategic bombers, mechs, art, I often find what I think their OOL is different then what they give me.
Anyways, if you say it is normal to roll all attacking and all defending dice at once, even for some of these complicated battles, I will go with what is customary.
You are perfectly right. I never said anything else. You roll, i chose, you roll, you chose your losses, then again…
I was just giving an example of bad habits some players have from play by forum.Keep doin’ what you’re doin’
That’s exactly how battles are suposed to be conducted. I must not know what i’m going to roll before i chose my casualties. -
Also, note that English is not my 1st language, so sometimes things may not come out exactly how i’d like them to.

I think your English is fine. It is just that sometimes I come across people in FTF games who swear all dice in a round of battle are rolled first and then casualties are chosen. I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page……and we are.

-
lol you forgot to roll your attack 1st and then let me chose my casualties before i get to see those really hideous rolls for my defense. Just after what we just said it’s hilarious !! :lol: :lol: :wink:
I will lose the dd and a CA
If i keep shooting way below odds like that, it’s gonna be a short game i’m afraid.

Yeah, I know we just had that conversation, BUT I was pretty sure that were going to choose to lose your ships and keep the planes for defense of London. Of course, that was an assumption I made and in this game, I often find my assumptions of what my enemy will do is wrong!!! :-)

hehe, don’t worry, you were right on this one !
