@simon33 said in 2025 OOB Playoff round 1 Simon33(L+40) vs Booper:

Always depressing to evacuate Moscow. Thought about standing and fighting but not a winner - wouldn’t do enough damage on you.

Yeah, not sure what a good rule of thumb is, but my battle calc figured I’d lose ~1 plane from the AA, plus almost all the ground but not getting into the tanks - this is with max D using all planes in range. About a plus +70 TUV swing in my favor.

Hi Booper, could not get to it yesterday, but today.

@farmboy the attritiion is real on the eastern front for the germans, russians hitting insane.
I assumed no scramble on 109, if you want to try a roll of 4 for a fighter bomber swap pls roll it here…

@oysteilo Live play is definitely more “interesting” in that way to me, the lack of battle calcs lets you make more risky decisions (and sometimes miss things that are more of a “sure-shot” than your intuition would tell you)

One of our live Tournament games this past November with my teammate @mikawagunichi came down to a battle for Turkey or Spain, one was 70+% odds and the other was 55/45 for the attacker, the attackers picked the 55/45 without the benefit of a battle calculator

If I hadn’t rolled all misses round one, we might have won that one…haha

@crockett36 USA is up good sir
