You can place the carriers in Quebec or S Africa.
Yes, but it doesn’t help with protecting London.
Still, 24% is imo way too high odds which should not have been offered, unless you believe your opponent is better than you.
You can look at it the other way too, if you outmatch a player, you don’t want to give th a 25% chance of turning the game.
If you are outmatched, offering 25% hail Marie’s make sense.
My thought behind my decision was simple.
Either him or me!
It was just the right mix between opportunity, luck and the guts to do it.
I was fully aware, if I, my UK Ftr’s fail, UK would have been dished with cream and Cherry on Top.
But: if only one single ftr goes through, only one, the World could be saved and a tiny smile would be on my Face.
It was a One out of hundred Buck Shots, bullseye.
That is the Way i see it.
Thank you Gentlemen for reading. :-) -

Thank you Gentlemen for reading. :-)If AV didn’t do it and/or lost the battle, the Axis would have probably won the game, IMO.
But he pulled it off…. :cry:

Karl,
That’s entirely accurate, he would have been toast if that attack didn’t work. It would have been an easy walk into London with very little ground or air opposition. You basically offered an opponent that you have beaten many times a 25% chance of winning a game. He took it and got lucky, as frustrating as it can be but you can’t blame him for trying and 25% is far from a remote outcome.
I would have taken that chance if I thought my chances of winning otherwise were say 15% or less.
-
Guys, I would think that would be a game worth looking over (Adam vs. Me1945).
Not many non-playoff games between top players, but here you have one that went over 14 rounds!
Looks like they’re going to start a tie-breaker, too.
Been watching all of them, ME1945 always puts in a good show!

Yeah, no question I gave him the chance.
To be brutally honest, if you play as many games as I do, it can get a little rote so taking chances like that keeps it fresh.
Sure, I hated that AV got so lucky, but simultaneously I am proud that it happened!!!
It was awesome! If bad for me….

Definitely!

Gargantua (Allies) over Desert Admiral (Axis)
This was a bloodbath of a game played face to face into the twilight of last night in the bowels of a construction site in Vancouver.
We even had private security! Lol. (Security guards are mandated by law for wood frame projects)
Desert Admiral played excellent, and had a comprehensive all-in Russia first strategy. Going heavy dark skies with Japan. If his German dice had held, he had a decent chance of pulling it off!
-
You were face to face and who was nearly pulled off?
Silliness aside, if you gave Garg a good game, I commend you Desert Admiral.

Wheatbeer over Karl7 Axis
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=40741.new#new
Axis probably lost the game R1 with Germany and Italy getting trounced hard. But Germany rallied to take UK, if but for a time. Japan ran wild in the PAC after USA dedicated to retake UK, but Japan disastrously lost most of its planes in dice-disaster in taking NSW. By then China was too big to defeat on land before USA redirected to Pacific.
