13P G40 MagicQ (Axis) vs JDOW (Allies +12) dice nt

mhh…discussions about dice usually lead to disagreements:)

I scored 3 hits in 110 which was nice. However Germans had lost 4 Inf in France (which is top10% for sure), 1 inf Yugo, 1 Inf Greece --> I never face that few ground losses in the early clearances, followed by ZERO hits 97 AND and this was not topped by the Japanese:

Battle in Szechwan
                Japanese attack with 2 bombers, 4 fighters and 4 tactical_bombers
                Chinese defend with 3 infantry
                Japanese win with 2 bombers, 4 fighters and 4 tactical_bombers remaining. Battle score for attacker is 9
                Casualties for Chinese: 3 infantry

which makes allies miss 10 consecutive shots on air in a row.

I consider the dice as significantly advantageous for the Axis from here.

But dice belong to the game so Ill remain calm about the dice from here.

@JDOW:

But dice belong to the game so Ill remain calm about the dice from here.

unless I get good dice any time. I think I have to acknowledge that as I started to complain about dice in the first time:D

Sir, just to let you know. I am moving tomorrow and packing all day and all night today and moving into a new town. There will be significant delays, sorry again but nothing I can do about it. Looking forward to my US2 and to continue our game as soon as possible!

Hey Sir,

I am more or less settled down. Everything still very messy in the new flat and I have trouble with my new internet connection. I am writing from work right now.
However, I am very confident that I can continue this weekend - I need avoid complaints from my wife as we have to do lots of stuff in the flat^^.

Ill set myself a deadline by Sunday to post the US2. Otherwise I would give myself a bump.

Sorry again for the slow play, things should get better next week hopefully!

I studied the map already, on it now.

Requesting orders for your sub in sz93.

To be clear, sub fights first round, right?

Furthermore. I am not sure if tripleA does it right here.

Assuming my sub hits, do you have to make casualty choice before your sub shoots?
or do both subs shoot and then casualty choice? I think in this case I have to roll in the forum?

I asked boldfresh, he said:
Attacking sub fires, if hit casualty choice immediately, then defending sub shoots regardless if taken as casualty choice,
then bomber then cruiser.

@MagicQ:

yes. my sub will join the fight 1st round.

Triplea can do it correctly.

both subs get chance to open fire cos no destroyer presents.

if your sub hits, take my sub as casualty.

okay, indeed my sub did hit.
