I’m away from home, but I thought of yet another German edit:one of the AAs from N. Italy that moved to W. Germany boards an Italian transport instead. I’ll attach the file if I get home before you play.
-
Here it is. As I said, I hope you’re ok with the edits since they have nothing to do with the Russian turn. It’s all about the Western front, yesterday I didn’t have time to think about that properly.
-
sure, I’m ok with the edits (even though it irks me that you make my landing in Normandy more difficult; I’ll have to see if its still worth it)

I have to concede this game. I attacked Normandy with 5 inf, 1 art, 1 mec, 5 fig and 4 bombers. According to the calculator, I have an 86% chance of winning, with 6 units surviving on average. I already ran the fight 6 times, and the best I could get was winning with 1 bomber left.
This is ridiculous, but surely a sign that I’m not supposed to win this game. There’s no sense in continuing without the Luftwaffe, particularly because my buys assumed I would have some airforce left. It was a good game, but I can only take so much dicing.
-
Maybe something is wrong with your calculation. Did you include the French fighter that flew in after Italy’s turn? When I calculate the battle, the result is a 60% win for you, with 2.8 units remaining on average.
If I calculate with all your fighters (6 fighters in total) your odds go up to a 78% win and 4.4 units remaining on average (and still a negative TUV swing). If you want to take the territory, your odds are slightly worse (76%, 4.2 units). With worse odds for me, I wouldn’t have done the invasion. Indeed, it was the very idea that even though you’d have a pretty good chance of throwing my first wave back into the sea, doing so would cripple your airforce.
-
You’re right, I didn’t calculate properly. Let me rethink this then.
-
I was wondering why you’d risk so many forces… It’s true that with 60% and 3 surviving units I wouldn’t try to attack either. Lets take this as my ‘re-roll’ and I’ll post a new German turn.
-
(I’ll change some Italian NCM also)
-
all right. as I said, quite exciting a turn! :)
