For the game (to see if we continue as I will surrender if USA/UK/Anzac do not seize Japan)
Battle for Japan, Phase 1-USA, Combat round 1
I assume no scramble, so that the fighters will defend Japan, if that changes, subtract the last 3 rolls from the corresponding 3’s and 4’s in your defense dice.
aa gun rolls: 5 x 3=15 at 1 (2.5 is the average hits)
Rolls: 15@1; Total Hits: 315@1: (4, 5, 3, 3, 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 5, 1, 1, 5, 4, 5)
Never mind, you win again.
I cannot hit twice with 5 fighters and a bomber in Ura, but the defender can with 2 2’s. Trading a bomber that defends at 1 for 2 attacking 2’s is worth it, losing a fighter and a bomber for 1 attacking 1 is not worth it. I can’t catch an average outcome in a small battle, so why bother with Japan.
Thank you for playing, I’m frustrated by this game, I’m failing simple objectives when I send overwhelming forces to complete tasks.
If you want to start another game, I have an idea for the allies. I’m done with a3, if you want an a2 let me know.
You are a good opponent and I appreciate our games together.
Why I was counting on URA to be cleared in one combat round:
Ura and then Novo-(by UK) were to be strafed with allied air units, eliminating 2 potential 1’s, 6 potential 2’s (3artillery grant that) and 2 potential 3’s for the battle for RUS for a cost of 2 tactical bombers-UK and 1 US bomber. Both were to be one round battles, and the loss of 1 additional air may still have justified the expense. In addition, these units would not be able to deploy East to prevent the Anzac mechs from liberating USSR IPCs. Only Japan and its bomber and mech in CMO would be able to eliminate one mech. UK was to land in Sfe, Sib, and Aleutian islands. USSR would collect 9, by clearing Volo and Sam(assumes one of the 2 defenders misses permitting 9 IPCs) under that plan, keeping USSR going a bit longer.
Anyway, you probably had this game all wrapped up even if I took Japan.
Let me know if you would like a rematch.
Must be really frustrating to be hated by the dice to this extent. I mean you can only put off the inevitable disaster by moving in force and doing some minor battles with overwelming airsupport before your oponnent by far outearns you. Perhaps it works against oponnents that don’t at least think of the probable outcomes of soe major or medium battles. If you want to do a rematch as Allies with me as Axis I could try a strategy that worked frightingly well against me in a face to face game. Or I could play Allies with which I got by far less experience and totally blundered said face to face game.
I have a good allies plan I want to test, feel free to start as the axis.
