14L G40 Zigg (allies+11) vs A&Aplayer

axisandalliesplayer

hmm, thought I posted the map and apparently not. :|

axisandalliesplayer

I’m going to redo my turn and edit the combats to reflect. In the original I did 6 damage on the SBR, UKR was twol, and I lost the 2 strats . . .

I’m not sure which would be sadder, losing 2 bombers on the 2nd SBR or not losing any and doing max damage. Check timestamps for the real battles.

Against a weak opponent, I think I could sustain losing that much air this early and still have a good shot to win. Against a strong opponent like you, well that’s a handicap you really don’t need at all. The frustrating thing is outside of sz110 and perhaps the recent Moscow SBR failure you haven’t really gotten that outstanding of dice. It’s just an extra unit dead outside of the expected norm. But when it’s expensive units like air or tanks, well that’s just painful. :x

Come to think of it sz91 would never have happened had sz110 not gone so disastrous for me. Which would’ve meant the sz97 would’ve been stronger and potentially could’ve wiped you out sooner and not given you another round of air killing. :cry:

You pretty much summed up what I was thinking. That one round of failure in 110 had a lot of repercussions. And that SBR was… special. If it makes you feel any better, you’re stealing luck from my other games for this one :). And a good opponent would’ve split some forces into Tambov last round to prevent that stack in Rostov… was kicking myself as soon as I did it. Still have a long ways to go. Never played against a J4 before, it really sucks as the US :P.

I posted the CM because I realized I wanted to change my buy; dice have yet to be rolled.

arm -> mech +2IPC
lose ss & dd +14IPC
add cv -16IPC

Also I want to edit a cruiser out of sz20 to go to sz6 and 1 bb less in sz35 to go to sz6. If in either terr their support shot is the deciding shot in killing you in 1 rd, I will continue rolling the battle on the forum and edit any different results accordingly.

Cruisers both missed, so that’s a non issue. One of the bbs got a hit (should’ve specified which bb shot wouldn’t count) but I got 3 hits from the ground/air units involved. So that too was not an issue.

A J4 does crimp USA’s options, but it really hurts Japan as well. My thought was the Japanese would really help Germany cut Russia down to size. But I’m not sure how that’ll end up working out with the losses the Luftwaffe’s sustained. You hereby have my permission to use all your luck elsewhere and henceforth get bad luck! Lord knows I can use it.

And I found the game that my luck seems to have found itself, check out my game against hobo. Eerily similar in the 1st round. I won sz111 vs your sz110. But similarities include parts of the RN surviving, German air losses, and a Japanese invasion of Russia. I went a different route than you because of differences in bids and which part of the RN/RAF survived (had to give up hitting sz97).

I know I’ve complained about the dice. But that’s my coping mechanism and I can also recognize when my opponent suffers. (Iraq here and sz111 vs hobo) :wink:

@axisandalliesplayer:

Cruisers both missed, so that’s a non issue. One of the bbs got a hit (should’ve specified which bb shot wouldn’t count) but I got 3 hits from the ground/air units involved. So that too was not an issue.

A J4 does crimp USA’s options, but it really hurts Japan as well. My thought was the Japanese would really help Germany cut Russia down to size. But I’m not sure how that’ll end up working out with the losses the Luftwaffe’s sustained. You hereby have my permission to use all your luck elsewhere and henceforth get bad luck! Lord knows I can use it.

And I found the game that my luck seems to have found itself, check out my game against hobo. Eerily similar in the 1st round. I won sz111 vs your sz110. But similarities include parts of the RN surviving, German air losses, and a Japanese invasion of Russia. I went a different route than you because of differences in bids and which part of the RN/RAF survived (had to give up hitting sz97).

I know I’ve complained about the dice. But that’s my coping mechanism and I can also recognize when my opponent suffers. (Iraq here and sz111 vs hobo) :wink:

Complain all you like :). I do the same thing and you’ve been completely justified this game :P.
