After a big miss by AA, a poor attack roll…. I need a horrible one for the defense. Otherwise, game could be over soon. :-)

Needing a little break, I score in the bottom 19% with my roll, and take an upper 35% result on yours. Ow again. (Don’t remember details of this game, but I remember the first attack on India going horribly wrong)
Was going to retreat, but if I do, Italy’s screwed, and then Germany is too. Needing a lucky result for round 2. If I get one more bad round I’ll probably be giving up.

Need another casualty choice
Nice makeup roll, but it just gets me almost back up to average damage inflicted after 2 rounds, if you include the AA….
A lot rides on the 2nd defensive roll…
Yeah, you had a bad first rd roll there.
no secrets with the OOL

OK! Finally finding the time to get back and finish this Germany turn!
Allies defending the Balkans, round 2 :S
Could be a knock-out punch?

Wheeeew!
According to my calculator, after 2 rounds I end up with a top 33% result by surviving with 1 artillery and all 3 fighters
Allies surviving with 6 armor is almost exactly as expected after 2 rounds….
Intense…
Sorry if I’m irritating you with all the analysis! I love numbers!

What an ugly roll. To not cut into your armor after that first rd is pathetic.
Stalin blames the Allied air, but their were reports of Russian troops trying to flee before the second wave of the German attack.
Hehe - true, it was some of both
