trulpen (X) vs Shin-Ji (A), BM3, bid 7 for A


  • @Shin-Ji said in trulpen (X) vs Shin-Ji (A), BM3, bid 7 for A:

    Ya know, I seriously considered retreating after that first round. Good thing I didn’t!

    But reallly, you’ve had extreme luck with all these big battles. Bryansk, Ukraine, Normandie and now FIC. It’s weird.

    Glad you didn’t attack my stack! Odds were against me there.


  • Eh, I’ve had atleast +80-90 % battles against you that I’ve lost. Sorry, but I just didn’t dare this time. If I fail I’m totally screwed. And what’s with the Russian 0.33 - Japanese -3.17 again?..


  • *atleast 2


  • You had like a 30-70 battle in Kazakhstan and I lost!?


  • I’m honestly getting fed up about the dice. Your play is good, but I don’t play this bad, I think.

  • '15

    It was a 50/50 by my reckoning. Did you factor in the extra Inf?

  • '15

    I did roll really well that battle, tho! I thought I’d end up having to retreat, but figured it was worth the risk.

  • '15

    Also, the only one that could be said to be playing badly in this game is me, with that total pants down screw up of leaving the Allied Navy to be destroyed like that. Your play has been fine, it just hasn’t worked out so far.


  • Perhaps I missed the inf. 50/50, it’s an ok battle for you. But you have had great luck throughout this whole game, I hope you can agree on that. Like FIC was a 30-70, I think, maybe 40-60, which you won.

  • '15

    Yea, FIC was a big risk. My plan hinged on ANZAC cleaning up the leftover fighters for me.


  • I confident that I shouldn’t stand this bad had rolls been more even. The key battle I think was Bryansk, which I had a very clear advantage in initially, but had to retreat.

  • '15

    THe dice roller is a harsh mistress! She’ll come for me soon enough, I have no doubt. She always does.


  • Aaaaaaaaarghhhhh!!! It happened again! I have 80-90 % win. One hit. You hit 3/3 when you should hit 1!

    !!!


  • Somehow I start to understand people who go for low luck games. I mean, I’m fine with luck. Don’t like it much, but think that it adds some spice to this game. But usually it swings a bit. When it’s one sided it’s just frustrating. Awful game for me.
