XDAP - 02 Final Draft (Axis) vs Dairy Qryn (Allies)

Usually people look at dice stats for the entire game. Also when you shove 15 units against 1 and only roll 1 hit… usually stuff like that you would omit, because you only needed 1 hit.

also the dd off london doesn’t matter as a hit, your stuff repairs. :)

you lost 3 inf for 3 inf, that is breaking even, you can say you got diced if you lost the battle and even then it would only be a little skirmish, you do 100 of them you going to lose a few. It is bound to happen.

What are the 15 units though? 15 unsupported infantry getting only one hit on offense is not statistically overly improbable. Even with an average roll of 1.933, 15 unsupported infantry could score only 1 hit and roll 14 2’s. That’s why I am saying that it is the context of the rolls, not luck, that is most affecting games of this nature. Luck is just a “false positive.”

I lost 4 inf and a fighter in korea to 6 russian inf attacking once on russia round 1. It was hilarious.

That’s a hell of a way to start off a game. lol

yeah, I still won that game in the pacific, japan owns in this game, even with slightly bad dice.

I only now realized germany lost a bomber to take nov, how curious.

@Gargantua:

What are you talking about satin!
100% of the American rolls are 2!  100% man!
:P

LOL

Garg, if you look at the Standard Deviation for both Germans and Russians, you will see both are very close to “1”. 
Anything less than about “2.5” for standard deviation means you are not yet outside of the realm of the highly probable dice roll results.

nice, very nice, grind on sight :)

me and my 12 inf and 2 aa guns are going all the way to manchuria and korea bro

May all your aa gun rolls be 1s! Mine missed so far in Asia. @_@

We doing dice reports for each turn now? Usually people look at it at the end of the game. I think the worst I ever rolled was 90% 5s and 6s. That was a hilarious game.

hmm, that is just combat summary and hit stuff, I don’t see dice averages…

i feel that the “extra” stuff only needs to be posted if there is something of note

otherwise we are just increasing djensen’s server fees

if you look at the dice from my battles, there is nothing totally wacky, its all pretty average.

if i have a crazy good or crazy bad turn, i’ll post that extra stuff.

its the same reason i’m not include the “territory summary” on france’s turn….

Cow and Veq,

I will be unable to post a turn this round, so Garg will be playing the turn for me. On top of starting classes, I have had a family emergency. This is not me quitting, by any means. I will be back, able to post, for the next Japanese move.
