L15 Radiant (Axis) vs Oysteilo (Allies+18)

@Radiant:

Bombing raid in Egypt rolls: 5,4,3,8 and causes: 6 damage to unit: factory_minor
                Bombing raid in Egypt causes 6 damage total.

How is that possible?  How does that add up to 6?

Because maximum damage is 6 to a minor complex. For a major it’s 20.

@Radiant:

I guess I got to quit, can’t compete against rolls like that.  Shame it was a good game until the luck ruined it.

Thanks for a great game. It is fun playing you. I have not looked in detail at the outcome of the battle but clearly your post shows some really poor dice. You did not ask for some feedback but I will give some comments anyhow. I think you hugely overcommit with Germany such as taking NW Persia with all those tanks. Then loosing them all on the counter. Very expensive for Germany. i also think it is very destructive for germany to leave all the tac bombers more or less unprotected in Archangelsk. In this battle Russia is lucky not loosing any air units. But at the end of the day this is a battle every Russian player will make in every game because the tacs are so important against Russia. Then with japan you are getting convoyed to death and you dont do anything about it. I think it is much more important to prevent that compared to making ground inland (china, russia and india). Looks like you lost 78 PU for Japan from convoying. Let me know if you like to start over again
