your luck is unfucking believable. you took such a gamble on that 1-2 combo, yet your tuv was way over. i will not be playing you again, no offense to you personally but i don’t like playing opponents who rely mostly on luck to win vs skill.
@axis-dominion That one went sideways against you, hard. It was worth it for me to attack to kill off Russian/US ground, but I expected to be retreating with US air largely intact - that’s what LL called for. Deadly.
@axis-dominion Ah, sorry to hear that. Just playing the game the best way I know how.
just make it a LL starting from italy and continue from there?
and play the game in LL going forward?
@axis-dominion Was planning on restarting that particular German battle on LL, then go back to dice for the rest of the game (unless there’s a particular, huge battle that we want to make sure doesn’t go sideways). I’m not willing to play LL normally, since it opens up the possibility of “strafing” without risking that your stack will win the battle and conquer the territory you’re strafing. That work for you?
Sure that works.
