BM3 oysteilo (axis) vs. Gamerman01 (allies)

Sorry, yes, let’s see if I do better.  If you attempt Sealion and it goes great it might be over in a couple rounds anyway

Infantry/Art on transport in 96 were supposed to be on Tobruk, of course.  I got bad dice, but need to add these two to the battle.

Round 1 infantry and artilleryRolls: 2@2; Total Hits: 12@2: (5, 1)

You would have one less “2” on defense in the 2nd round, but your extra “2” missed anyway (everything else hit)

I would have 2 more 2’s in the 2nd round:
Rolls: 2@2; Total Hits: 02@2: (4, 6)

You hit 3 times in round 2, which would have left me with tank, fighter, tac vs. art, mech, armor

I’ll continue to round 3:

Rolls: 2@3 1@4; Total Hits: 12@3: (5, 4)1@4: (3)Rolls: 2@2 1@3; Total Hits: 22@2: (3, 1)1@3: (1)

It’s still a bad result for me.  I still limp off with one plane, and Tobruk holds with armor and mech (or artillery if you want)

Looks like I’m another step closer to resigning.  Couldn’t even kill 2 subs in 110.

Agreed - no problem at all

Another Norwegian on here? Awesome.

Where from? I am originally from Kristiansand, but moved to the U.S. 6 years ago.

Alex, seems like you have found your opponent for your league comeback. Oysteilo is a great guy and stromg player.

Am here to move - looking forward to seeing this G2

Took a lot of time to record all those game results - wow
Need to eat, then planning to move

But my back went out pretty bad today and that wrecked my plans.  Such a quick easy move, I’ll do it right now.

I totally agree, my friend.
No, you feel free to play whatever you want - if Sealion is optimal at this point, DO IT!!!  :-)

I’m glad you haven’t moved yet - my back went out Friday morning and I’m still recovering.  This is the first I’ve checked the boards since then.

This game is one of those 10 or 20%'ers that might have got decided for us by dice, and that’s OK.  Forget about the challenge at this point - the unusual G1 kind of threw that out on us, and that’s OK.  I also don’t blame you if you don’t rematch me - I have fallen in love with my Playstation more than ever, so play A&A pretty slow as you know  :-(

However, if you build for Sealion (I mean what are the chances - you build all fleet on G1 and then lose only 2 planes even though I scrambled) G2, who knows what the dice will do to you on the invasion.  I will play at least until G3 no matter what (unless I check odds and see it is really unlikely you will even lose much, in which case I am prepared to resign after G2)

So at least you are likely to get a win in only 2-3 rounds, which makes me feel a little better about being slow for you.

Thank you for your kindness and patience as always
