Welp at least Russia held out till G11. you can have a destroyer in the medit sea if you like, I might have retreated still, probably.

Ichabod

Am I going to have to fight for Cairo? :-D

Or is there a threshold for remaining tanks in Moscow that would convince you otherwise?

Ichabod

Yes, I would have kept the destroyer in the sea battle for max defense; especially in a live game. It appears you were successful in doing a strafing run to knock out a Italian ship off the board with zero losses.

Cow

Got to see what you got left. Also Russia has 1%. I recall you complaining about a G1 France attack fail, same odds. :P

Cow

You know man, I had 44% at Japan and 4%. I am for sure going to see this 1% chance at Russia through.

Ichabod

Very funny regarding my post about Paris fail! On a table top game…due to the time invested, I’d really hope that in a Paris fail situation for a friendly game something could be worked out. A good game would be more important to me.

My guess is that my odds for Moscow on G11 are in the mid-80s. If dice is close to LL, I think that will result in around 15 tanks left. If that amount or less (heck even 22 tanks), I’d understand your reasoning to fight on. It’s not guaranteed that Cairo could be captured. It’s a very long way to get there while the US is going near 100% at Germany. You could fight on! There is no time limit to a PBEM game!

Lastly, I was curious on Saturday and clicked through to a G11 Moscow as if all UK/Anzac fighters made it to Moscow (and they could have). In that scenario, the UK evacuated the med on round 9 to get carrier based fighters there…ect. Calcutta would have been re-captured (didn’t do that just clicked through to Moscow) with a good chance of defending against the UK if UK Pac forces evacuated.

When I rolled the practice Moscow round (I did 2x), Germany was left with only 7 tanks and 1 tank. Advantage to the allies would have been more time to slow Germany’s ground unit advances. Disadvantage of course would have Japan collecting India NO money and the UK fighting in the middle east without any starting fighters except for a 3 fighter build if you chose to do that.

Cow

I decided not to evac India as I am not interested in dealing with neutrals right now.

Cow

My calc had you at 99%. Yeah depending on how many tanks you got left determines if you can get a vc win in europe or not.

Looks like you got the average . Hmm maybe you win in four rounds

Ichabod

I’ll give it my best shot…even if I don’t make it to Cairo, I had a lot of fun this game.

Japan had some good dice earlier in China in this game and other areas which slowed you down. I was disappointed about Japan’s attack on Philippines in Round 8?..would have been nice for me to hold it long enough to make the US buy transports or require Anzac to get it back. I think at that moment the allies didn’t have many loaded transports around.

You and Arthur Bomber Harris are the two best I’ve played against. That first live game against you opened my eyes to a completely different Allies playing strategy.

Ichabod

The battle calc was 99%, yep you were right. I thought you were going to send up a few more fighters.

In either event, there was a chance that battle could have really swung in your favor. Both of our second rolls were not very good; especially mine because I mostly only lost my 1s and a small handful of artillery. But, at that moment, Russia could have rolled strong again which would have swung it where Germany may have won with just a few tanks or take plane hits.
