Ok. I was feeling pretty good about how I was going this game. USSR aren’t supposed to reach Norway without the other allies helping.
If you change your mind, we can probably continue.

it ain’t the dice so much (aa fire is lucky to hit most times anyway)… i can’t figure out whether i’m really playing that badly, or you’re just that much better than me. i haven’t had a butt-whipping like this in a while. there’ve been a couple of “what-was-i-thinking” moments, but for the most part it’s been a lightning fast assault against europe. i thought the italian straffe attempt on turn 1 was risky, but i’m beginning to think it wouldn’t have mattered. japan is becoming its usual monster self, but germany is going to be dead in about 3 turns… the assault on france was a great move. i really didn’t see that coming. you got some good dice, but they weren’t just absurd… it was a good aggressive move that wiped out half the luftwaffe… i couldn’t really afford that.
of course, if the dice had been kinder i don’t think the delimma would be as grave right now, but i’d have had to have spectacular dice to be winning this game, and that just usually doesn’t happen very much - to anyone, not just me.

$30 + $3 saved = $33dice-wise, overall, i’m ahead by about +5 to average, but most of your bad dice came on G1 and J1… you’re slightly above average since then. where it’s costing me is 0-for-15 on aa fire. that’s not terribly unexpected, but it hurts nonetheless.

There are some good Allies players on here I have learned from since I began last year…mostly due to getting my butt kicked…Bold, JWW, Darth, Rising Dragon, Soul, Lucky Lindy…to name a few.
