Jeez - I’m finding new life
3% chance that I survive with a battleship,
6% chance that I destroy 6 fighters
Thought it would be lower chances than that, even
Wow, Darth, that was a heavy price to pay to prevent the Italians from transporting men they can’t afford to be transporting….
You can do whatever, post a win or draw. I have zero desire to continue.
Thank you, but I want to give you a day or two to re-consider. I would be discouraged too, but I hope you’ll look at it again on a different day. I don’t know if I can keep Europe alive or not, with Russia’s mammoth income.
If you still don’t want to continue at the end of the league year (early next week) then I’ll report it as a win in the 2011 year. But don’t you still have a great chance at winning?
Yeah I still have a great chance to win considering both UK and Russia have an equal or bigger army than Ger and Ita has like 50 ipc in units.
Just not sure how “fun” it will be. Just reminded of the appeal of Low Luck.
Well here the rest of UK.

Yep, but defense is cheaper than offense, and the Japs have 7 aircraft in Europe! I’m gonna make you “prove it”!
Tired, but should be able to get Italy out of the way, here…

That’s exactly what made the bad dice for rd 2 of Blk strafe and the stupid UK attack so frustrating. Winning or losing by getting the top or bottom 20% of any battle takes some of the fun out of it, at least for me. Just like it isn’t fun to win a game if on G1 they get diced in Sz 2 and Sz 12 and Russia hits everything in site. Or even to look in this game with you getting diced in India. It makes everything the US/UK did this game “suspect” since you can’t count on that happening very often. Obviously bad/good dice happen, just makes it harder to plan strategies.
Thanks again and I’ll have US up tonight.
