Got it, I didn’t see that I also had a FAQ, was thinking I only had the CLASSIFIED clarification
Now I see my specific question is answered, the carriers could not even split up during a combat move that ends in the same place

I don’t see any validity to your complaint Cow,
50% of your aa’s hit on london, and I believe you also scored a number of AA hits in Eastern Poland, a poorly designed defense, which still managed to secure the allies a decent showing. Italy got diced hard in the med early, and with it’s landings / attacks.
The only reason Germany and Italy face the challenges they face currently, is because they are minus that -extra- unit or two. A good player accepts that that’s reality, and moves forward - without complaint (observation is ok, but must consider the two way street). It’s Axis and Allies man, it happens.
Belarus was awesome, but our dice weren’t much better than yours, 4 rounds at 10 attack power to kill 4 units… that’s almost HALF the amount of hits we should have recieved? Granted, you didn’t hit anything in return, so we can safely consider BOTH our dice bad.
If you lose this game, at no stage can you call it -bad luck-. The luck is a piddalance when compared to the MOUNTAIN of strategic choices both sides have made, some good, some in error.
At BEST for you, you could argue the dice even, some observers would say though, that the rolls have 60/40 the allies way over the course of the game. Look at the history and decide for yourself - and observe. But don’t complain like a moo bag. ;)
I look forward to seeing Veqryn’s post!

to say that games are not won and lost on luck is false,
playing dice, of course games are won or lost on good and bad luck with important rolls
which is why i prefer low luck for most of my games
that said, i think this game is relatively even overall, and that while the luck has been worse for the allies, it has only been slightly worse, and not enough to override the choices of the players at this point

Luck has it’s place on the battlefield as well. In a game such as this, luck can also been seen as the infernal accountant for intangibles. Troops don’t get tired, miss their families, disobey orders, or any of the other crap that goes on in a war.

Luck is when preparation meets oppurtunity.

well you wanted your luck cow, and you got it. I don’t want to hear anymore bitchn
50% defensive hits at 2 or less is a VERY good result to be pleased with ;). And now russia should get their biggest -boon- turn of the game, let’s see what they do with it!
-
stfu i didn’t bitch at all. i can’t even make light of something without it being misinterpreted.
-
Heh heh. Sounds like you’re getting under his hide Garg.
-
lol you call that luck? are you kidding me? belarus was luck. the only thing that hit that turn were the 3 inf in karelia, gtfo. lol.
-
Yep MH, definetly under the hide.
COW Your side had 6 rolls that turn, ALL at 2 or less. You hit on 50% of those rolls instead of 33%. A near 20% better showing than anticipated is considered -lucky- yet you still complain?
Pfftp.
STRATEGY has had a hell of alot more to do with this game, than raw dice. So don’t poor sport out, fake injury, and reach for the dice welp. It’s weak.
Lean meat weak…
-
;)
-
so what you are saying is we got 12% lucky on Germany’s turn? Well, we got 99% unlucky on italy’s turn, you took belarus without losing anything. So I can’t see how you can say we are lucky lol.
maybe if my destroyer hit, I’d be happy.
-
The question is… how unhappy are you going to be, when MY destroyer hits? :P
-
well it’d just be a sub at least.
-
I think I pulled a hammy on J5.
-
what is a hammy?

A hamstring
