15L Playoff Rd2: [4] JDOW (Axis) vs. [8] Gamerman01 (Allies +25)


  • That’s what it felt like, but actually he hit exactly 1/3

    This time

  • '12

    @JWW:

    @Boldfresh:

    Nice defensive hit rate!

    there is a bold fresh sighting! Good to see you BF

    thanks JWW - I’ve been a busy little bee.


  • '15 '14

    Jap 12 combat attached.

    Big battle at Carolines. Japan scored 11 hits round 1, the sub missed, please assign casualties.
    I can’t promise to finish the move tonight, its bed time but I wanted to post before that.

    p.s.: Sorry I forgot to post combat moves before I rolled. However I guess this should be affect anything even in theory.

  • Well, crap.  I finally make a mistake and you roll up more than a hit, to boot
    And of course your infantry have no trouble winning with no losses, even on the heels of my Java disaster
    Well I didn’t mean to give Japan this attack, but it ought to hurt them pretty bad and help Asia anyway

    So take off the 3 subs, damage 3 carriers, and lose 5 destroyers
    Dang, this game just got longer
    Stinking carriers.  Man, you needed this badly.  Japan was getting squeezed
    Nice move

  • '15 '14

    Continuing now, I had to reload the map. I assume the dice will be the same if I click on the battle again. If not, I will roll in the forum.

  • '15 '14

    Okay, you got your reveng, you scored 11 hits total in defense, so this battle might be a shortcut to the end.

  • '15 '14

    Sir, I can’t explain that, I accidently took one plane too little off at Caro. Obviously only 6 planes could land and after the clearence at Caro, the casualty choice is not affected.
    So I hope you don’t mind if I leave the damaged battleship.
    However I don’t know how to add a damaged battle ship to the map. So I add an undamaged battleship. I assume you kill it anyway so you can roll that on the forum. ok?

    All together the Allied defense was I don’t know how many hits above average. So we might have found a shortcut now.

    And a double 3 as convoy roll after you scored 7 damage with 2 subs the round before. :)

    So you got the dice you were waiting for.
    After that turn now I believe Japan is the biggest loser dicewise in this game.
    The air strike went 1 above average for you in terms of planes, the Chinese gambit one below. However from there we had 5/9 AA, the Caro battle and an way above average convoy rolls always all the time.

    I think we are moving towards even dice-wise meanwhile.

  • '15 '14

    Oh, once second please, I might reconsider NCM, let me think please.

  • '15 '14

    mhh… no, go ahead please.


  • Wow, I was just hoping I wouldn’t roll way down
    Yes, looks like a big-time makeup, so you get a break from my complaining!
    Can’t even look now, was just going out the door and thought you might need another choice
    At a glance I think I agree with your analysis though

    Chalk it up to curse of the clever - you are the clever one  :|

  • Here’s some good news for you, 2 American air down already, and more bombers are vulnerable as I got a poor roll in Z46

    What do you take the 1 hit to?

    And check out the dice in North Italy  :wink:


  • Oh, and let me know if you want to intercept at Stalingrad, but it’s 4 against 2

    Alright,

    no intercept at Volgo.
    And take the sub off please at sz46.
