OMG!!! I gotta say, I don’t think the TripleA dice roller is rolling things evenly! This is just getting ridiculous! This is going beyond you getting lucky! It is getting to be almost intolerable! First of all, you hit almost every time when you have 1 unit in a territory! I.e. SZ25… You hit w/your destroyer and you hit almost every time w/your 1 Inf, etc… I almost never get a hit when I have 1 unit in a territory! Sometimes I don’t even get 1 hit when I have 1 Inf, 2 Inf, or 3 Inf in a territory sometimes. Then, I attack Egypt at 99.9% chance of winning w/only 4.7 IPC’s of losses! So, I can accept you get really lucky dicing and get 2 hits. After it’s all said and done, w/my crappy dicing in the 1st round, you get 3 hits! Then, Yunnan, I attack at 97.6% chance of winning! I attack w/2 Inf, 1 Art & 1 FTR. I should win w/AT MOST 2 Inf of losses! Not only do I NOT win the battle but I don’t even get 1 hit in the first 2 rounds and you get 1 hit in the first round and 2 hits in the 2nd round! Total BS! This basically is making me retreat from Burma back into India. I brought an extra unit into each of the Yunnan and Shan State battles only to lose miserably in Yunnan! This is getting beyond insane!  :-(  :-o  :?  :x  :oops:  :cry:  :roll:  :|

I have come to expect below average luck in all my games. It is just my normal luck. I roll bad in face-to-face games also. I can live with below average luck. Like I said, it is my normal luck. But, when battles like Yunnan go that horribly bad, it gets beyond tolerable! I could have accepted only taking Yunnan w/1 Art. But, since I didn’t take it at all, it leaves SO many more options open to you…  :-(  :-o  :?  :x  :oops:  :cry:  :roll:  :|

In the future, can you make sure to upload the map w/everything(i.e. dice rolls, combat moves, non-coms, builds, placement, collect income, etc…). Thanks!

Can you send me the results of the dice rolls from the MARTI server via email? Also, how do I see the Non Coms and Placements?

Ok! Not going to play this game anymore! I just rolled for the battle in Iraq and it was absolutely RIDICULOUS!!! I had 99.7% chance to win w/only 2 Inf loss and you took out 3 Inf & 2 Mech! Retarded! I don’t care what anyone says, the dice roller on TripleA is NOT random! It doesn’t matter what anyone’s strategy is, if you keep getting beyond the worst luck, you can’t win! I didn’t even get 1 hit in the first round! Should have got 2 hits at least! 2nd round, I get 1 hit! Should have got at least 2 hits in the 2nd round, considering I whiffed in Round 1! But no, I get no hits! And of course, like clock work, you get 2 hits! Round 3, I get only 1 hit! And again, like a well oiled machine, you get another hit! Round 4, I get only 1 hit again! And wait for it! Wait for it! Yup! There it is again, with your last Inf, you get YET ANOTHER hit! STUPID! Like I said, I can handle a little below average luck! But this is beyond comprehending! I’m even bringing extra units, just to over compensate for my bad luck! But, even that doesn’t work! You attack W. Ukraine and Ukraine w/only 1 Inf and I don’t get any hits w/my Inf. I attack Iraq w/7 units to your 3 and you take out 5 units! INSANE! It seems to me the dice roller is rolling strings of numbers in a row. For instance, I got three 6’s in a row in Round 2. That is not normal random dicing. Something weird is going on! Sorry to be ranting but seems to me, no matter what my strategy is, bad luck seems to want to prevail in our games. After two games of extremely bad luck(i.e. Game 1, SZ97 was horrible! You get 5 hits(all your units hit in Round 1). I had 80% chance to win that battle and lost miserably! If the Brits don’t take out SZ97 in Round 1, it’s basically game over for the Allies! Then, Game 2 I get horrible dicing like in Iraq, Bessarabia and Yunnan! Too much to handle! Congrats on being the luckiest dude I’ve ever played and me getting the worse luck of my life!  :-(  :-o  :?  :lol:  :x  :oops:  :cry:  :roll:  :|

I can’t even get more than 3 IPC’s of convoy disruption w/my Subs!  :-o  :lol:  :roll:
