Boldfresh (Allies +6) vs. Nerquen (Axis), G40, no tech

nerq i just noticed the french destroyer didn’t make it to the sea zone intended.  was supposed to go to 79 but went to 80…  i will edit it was simply a misclick and germany was not related.

ah well, just forget it leave it as is actually.  maybe i did it subconsciously.

UK_6 edit.tsvg

all game long - this is just stupid.  you killed 4 more units than you
should have AND survived a tank.  absolutely ridiculous.

F6.  you have played very poorly and you will still win this game.  had i known you were such a bad player i would not have made some of the riskier attacks i made earlier in the game.  and yet your incredible luck just keeps happening over and over and over.  now you have a coin flip to win the game, thanks to miracle after miracle after miracle in your favor.

i’m sorry bro, but you have absolutely no business winning with the way you’ve played.  you haven’t just been lucky, you have been RIDICULOUSLY lucky.  :roll:

honestly, i am mostly frustrated with the dice, and with the fact that you will think you played well because you will win.  thats fine, you will see the light in our second game where you will be demolished in very short order.  :evil:

i have made tricky and elegant attacks against sydney against top opponents that have FAILED miserably due to me getting diced.  now you make one of the clumsiest attempts at the island i have ever seen and I GET DICED AGAIN and your attack will actually succeed.  it is just beyond ridiculous. pure dumb luck.

just so you know, this attempt at sydney should have essentially ended your chances of victory in this game.  with remotely reasonable dice there you are wiped out in west aus and unable to even MAKE AN ATTEMPT on sydney for the rest of the game.  instead you will actually win, which i will try hard not to take personally since the dice have literally kicked my butt all game long.

i hope you get sydney actually.  the last straw in a string of unbelievable dicings that will result in your victory.  :roll:  reminds me of the game cow won in the tournament against us.  the thing is, a good player must realize when the opponent they are playing is not solid and i didn’t realize that until you made this attempt on sydney.  arguably i should have just turtled but it’s almost impossible to pass up such a beautiful chance to wipe out so many japanese ground troops from a fleet stranded out in the ocean with a high percentage attack.
