EM (Axis) vs. Jen (Allies) G40A+3 +NO +Tech Game 1

@FranceNeedsMorePower

Here’s my dice tracker:

Larry Harris 1942 dice tracker.pdf

It was originally a Word document but was converted so I could share it on the forum.

This dice tracking system was first thought of by @The_Good_Captain .

Basically, what you do depends on the battle.

If the attacker has a strong chance of winning (80% and higher), you simply battle calculate the results and find the average number of attacking units left when the attacker won. If the attacker won with more units left than the average, the difference is registered as positive dice swing for the attacker (and a negative for the defender). If the attack won with fewer units left than the average, then the difference is registered as a negative dice swing. I would assume vice versa applies to battles where a defender has a strong chance of winning.

When you lose a battle or an upset occurs, the difference from both the average attacker units left and the average defender units left are used.

The Good Captain explained all of this in more detail in these videos:

Keep in mind these are just prototype/test videos. A much cleaner version will come out soon.

@crockett36 @Panzerstahl-Helm

Soviets get 1 hit

Germans 7 hits

Oberst is killed

All soviet units die a glorious death for the Motherland.

All German Air survives, which is what battlecalc predicted.

@Panzerstahl-Helm may have decided to keep his PG alive and kill a Ftr instead, idk. We can adjust on JPN turn if needed.

@crockett36 I will play out the save and edit accordingly and then save again in dice mode so you can finish your turn.

Will post at the other site directly
