Didn’t think you would do a 55/45 on Java. I decided to attack sz6 because of that haha.

I got hosed on Java. It is all fair.

To be honest I did try to hose him round 1 with the full scramble so I guess I am evil.

You are a gnat.

It was 52-55% You had 2 inf 2 arty 2 fighter 2 tactical 2 bomber 2 bombardments vs 2 inf 2 tacticals 6 fighter.

10 units vs 10 units, my rolls were bigger, but you had bombardments. If you run the calc it is about even.

You had slightly better than pocket pair vs big slick odds.

You are talking about germany right?

Yeah that is the right buy to make. I would do the same thing. At least threaten Russia to force the air units in or attack it the next turn.
