Ruskies continue to out roll us on dice. He got tech and I missed. I attacked Lith with 5 units, power of 14 and got 2 hits, while all 3 of R’s units hit on first round, despite power of only 5. Rus +2.67 dice score from just 5 units in one round.

@colt45554 You forgot to roll for victory bonds. I may have to start charging a finders fee for reminding you. :blush:
Austria can roll for you if you want, since it’s random dice.

FMErwinRommel

It’s hopeless taking Paris later in the game. HG with tech defends at 5 and costs 4 1/2 with working women. So max 8 HG has 40 defense and only costs 36 PU. That’s 111 % defense to cost ratio. An attacking FG with barrage and inf pair have offense of 5 and cost 7. That’s a 71% attack to cost ratio. 77% with working women. Add 3 trenches that provide 6 hit points for only 9 PU.

Cannot be worse than Colts Triple 1s for Tech

Private-Panic

Doing Austria.

So I need to roll VBs for France and add the result to their income?

Also Austria just got VBs which I believe I will pick up this turn so also need to roll for those?

So rolling for France and Austria in that order:

[dice 2d6]

dicebot

2d6: 4, 6
2d6: 3, 6

Private-Panic

Attacked Tuscany. I think the OOL against my Gas was fairly obvious, but please tell me how you want to allocate the 28 hits with my non-Gas units in round 1. Also subsequent rounds. See attached.

On the road to Rome!.tsvg

FMErwinRommel

@private-panic Its standard that everyone takes the trenches first. 13 trenches x 2 = 26, that just leaves 2 hits to allocate against infantry.

Elrood

@fmerwinrommel I agree, I think PP can safely resume rolling.

Private-Panic

Are the Entente happy with that?

Elrood

@private-panic They are, I asked Witt via messenger and he agreed with Rommels logic

Private-Panic

I didn’t want to assume trenches first because that affected the strafe possibility.

Isn’t Milan lovely at this time of year!.tsvg
