@Gamerman01:
I would roll my own defense, but I don’t know if you’re one of those players who goes ballistic.
No I wouldn’t care, have done it myself before.
@Gamerman01:
You keep talking Italian navy. I don’t care about the Italian navy. You don’t either - as the Allies you let mine go longer than this.
It depends on the situation of course but generally I leave it alone. You are correct.
@Gamerman01:
I didn’t land my bombers in a safe enough place
Agreed. Now the question is, will the dice gods make you pay for your mistake? I wrote a thread, a few years ago concerning 'risk v reward" and the ability of a player to understand when an error was made and to capitalize, to the utmost degree, on that mistake. This situation is similar, to that argument I made. If my moves are sound only the dice gods are in the way of me reaping my reward. I have been, we all have been I am sure, victims of “the curse of the clever”, but it is far better to be clever and take these high reward risks, than the opposite.
In hindsight, I probably risked to much sending the G bmb down in the hopes of securing EAF as I was, and still am, willing to sacrifice J fgt’s for allied bmb’s. And to that end, whatever fgt’s still live after this battle could have landed in SUD if my two inf failed to take eaf, perhaps that was a bit greedy, thinking my two g inf would be alive and well in eaf w/3-4 jpn fgt’s after this battle.
