-
the key is the 100 ipc spread in damages, you’ve been able to turn several battles that looked like they had massacre potential into almost even exchanges, an even exchange will not carry the game for me, now i need the dice to be kind.
-
and you did the same, many times, but I never pointed it out.
-
If the calculator is right, you should survive with around
7arm 2fig 3tac 2bmb (if AA doesnt hit) -
I get 416 ipcs of damage, that will look like
1 ftr = 10
109 inf = 327
20 arts = 80that leaves me with 9 armor and 13 arts to hold the territory.
-
sorry, 20 combination of arts and mechs hit.
-
Germany – Winter 1943-44
With 49 ipcs,
12 mechs = 48
Save 1 ipcGermans assassinate hitler, renounce fascism, this is a war to end communism – all Jews and concentration camps are emptied, please God bless our efforts and allow us to liberate Ukraine!

40% of your shots at 2 hit that time.

and so a battle where I had 90% odds and should have come out 100 ipcs ahead,
by the third round has me down to 30% odds and 72 ipcs more in damage than expected.I’m pretty sure that’s a 1 in 100 type of victory for you.
At this point, if we play it out it’s just to see how long it takes you to capture the capitals.
