The ways of the Dice Goddess are not for we mere mortals to understand.
I once had a 99.9+% chance of taking Moscow with a combined Japanese bomber + German land force attack. AA gun fire shot down more than half of the dozen Japanese strafers; the remaining ones all missed. I still had a 98% chance of winning, but the dice goddess was still against me. Nothing that you can do when you have a perfect plan but failed dice rolls!

Is it time to call this a game, and flip sides? That bad dice rolls for two rounds near Moscow was a killer for the Axis. With Italy gone and Japan off the mainland, I don’t see a way to withstand the US economy backed up with Russian infantry.
I had been considering that. Sure! Let’s go ahead and flip sides.
I’ll post your win. Congratulations - I think after this game I’ve learned a lot about how to sealion well, and what to avoid in the future. Well played!
