Oh I am wondering if I am doomed in this game already.
Certainly anything can happen with the dice, but the odds are looking a bit long.
@andrewaagamer oops, that is what I meant
you got 5 hits. I am down to crusier, 3 fighters, tipped BB.
2 more hits.
DD and fighter
ouch, I whiffed on my last turn. Jap fighter land in Malaya or siam?
Malaya please
2 or 3 hits less than average. Might spell trouble for the Allies
Oh my, major ouchie with UK!! That SUCKS!
yeah, likely cost me the match. I had to take the risk at that point. now I have to yolo Anzac and hope for a 25% outcome.

@arthur-bomber-harris said in 2022 2nd Ed OOB Playoffs R2 - AndrewAAGamer (X) vs ArthurBomberHarris (A+60):
The risk-benefit calculus for attacking Malay was slightly positive so had to take the chance on the attack. Paid off.
Yeah, gotta admit. I figured at 23% it was not an attack you would make. As you say the dice giveth and the dice taketh.
