S03 Gamerman01 (allies +12) v JWW

@Gamerman01:

Your purchase adds up to 22, not 23….  Let me see what you actually placed…  Maybe you meant arm and not art?  Let’s see…

You placed artillery.  I’m adding 1 IPC, so you have 23 on hand for next turn, not 22.

I know I’m picky, but I don’t like that you rolled those 3 battles concurrently.  If one or two of them were to go sour, it could possibly affect your decision to press or retreat.  I know you do it for convenience, but it could possibly provide the attacker with an unfair advantage.  The rules require one battle at a time, before moving to the next.
I will roll more than one battle at a time, when I’m rolling like 10 dice for a 1 on 1, or when I have 99.99% odds to win (like my attack on Bulgaria this turn).  But you were attacking with 2 infantry and 2 or 3 fighters, and one or more of those battles could have gone wrong.  Thanks.

5/6 on defending 2’s - you continue to be charmed
And yes, defending 2 hit rate is a significant indicator of luck.  In many battles, they are the only ones that matter.
At least there are no non-AA targets for the Luftwaffe  :roll:
Oh, and I guess I have Americans to pick up the money…
