Combat
Probability of 1 dd holding off 3 subs, 1 in 140.Please no lectures on how after you hit two subs in a row without me getting a hit in return that the odds were 50-50, I had to attack because the sub would be sunk if it retreated.
Also please please don’t point to a battle with 50-70% odds and say that’s somehow equivalent to losing a battle with 99+% odds.
1 transport remains in 109
Normandy cleared but held
S france taken with loss of 1 mech
Paris taken with 1 mech, 3 arts, 6 tanks
Yugo taken with loss of 1 inf
Oh my God Corrigan calm down, can’t we just have fun? I never say 1 in 140 after a battle lost. Luck is part of the game, and it’s annoying I agree.
-
I am laughing, I just hate it when people get great luck and they start telling you it was based on skill or I didn’t think about my retreat options or it all balances out, hey just own up to the fact that once in awhile the dice bless you.

Although Italy+Germany will be quite strong vs Russia and/or UK together with US being delayed so much! Let’s see!

I have another concern:
What if Italy/Germany pushes everything against Calcutta and/or Sydney while keeping the US at peace? (With Japan getting in position to conquer the last 2 VCs (HK and Manila) and doing so just after the German turn?
-
You have 50+ ipcs a turn and a major factory in india.
I can’t see the Italians making it to conquer Sydney before Russia and the USA are in the war.
