@crockett36 said in L24 OOB AndrewAAGamer (X) vs crockett36 (L+60) Game 2:

@AndrewAAGamer you rolled a 2 therefore a hit and one less fig in Caroline, right?

No. Rolled a 6, a miss. Nothing changes.

@Arthur-Bomber-Harris said in What is your biggest comeback in Global 40?:

The Allies were doing great in the Pacific with India recaptured and the Money Islands liberated. Unfortunately Egypt had fallen and the dwindling forces in Moscow were surrounded by Germans.

The Japanese opened the attack on Moscow with a kamikaze air strike that should have strafed off enough soldiers to make it completely undefendable against Hitler’s ground forces. Snake eyes. Lots of snake eyes. A row of snake eyes from AA guns obliterated most of the Japanese attacks before they could even attack. The survivors mostly missed. About 12 Russian troops should have been lost, but instead only 2 were killed in this suicidal raid.

Still, Hitler had a 99% chance of conquering Moscow and winning the game the following round. Again, dice saved the Allies. The Axis forces had awful luck, and Moscow remained above with just one defender preventing capture.

Soon after, the Allies steamrolled into France, liberated Paris, and moved on into Berlin. Game over.

Oh, I just noticed you wanted to know about my biggest comeback, not defeat.

Funny how we remember the defeats better than the successes.

So, I always offer best two out of three. Would you like to play again?

So, I always offer best two out of three, would you like to go again?

Thank you for the game! I thought you played very well. As usual, you were a tough opponent. If it hadn’t been for that disastrous battle in Greece early on, I think you would’ve had a really good chance of knocking out Moscow before I could gain the overall advantage.

@surfer said in L24 OOB surfer (X) vs AndrewAAGamer (L+60) #1:

@AndrewAAGamer I forgot to attack the sub in Celebes. Assuming you’ll allow the rolls…

1 DD + 4 ftr + 2 tac vs 1 sub
2 tacs first
[dice 1d6<=4]

Yep, no worries. We are just playing a friendly game.

So, I stopped reading these posts but Marshmallow’s post has brought this back to my attention.

First, let me say, I honestly did not realize you were playing solo. The way you described the Germans actions I thought you were describing what someone else did. But, rereading this, I do see you did clearly say you were playing solo.

Based on that I do agree I was out of line. I have no issue criticizing a strategy that is being poorly executed but I never want to actually slam the player themselves.

Therefore, I do apologize for my out of line post.

Do you want me to go back and edit it to say “Well, if the Germans are going to execute such a poor attack on Russia then yes, you will have the money to buy those bombers?”

I only ask, instead of just editing it myself, because you have quoted the original post. I assume, when I edit the original post, it will not change any quoted posts. I do not want you to feel I am secretly editing or deleting something that I said that I should not have said; I totally believe in accountability.

Please let me know if you want me to edit the original post; and again I am sorry I was careless in not understanding what was going on and making an unintended personal attack on you.

SZ33 Battle: You did not ask for OOL even though there was an attacking SS and a defending DD. Common policy is to ask if you want the lose the DD or the CA. You automatically took the DD which is not what I would have done.

Since on Round 2 the attackers had two hits it would not effect the Japanese losses any. All three units would still be dead. However, with a DD and hit BA available on Round 2 versus a CA and hit BA the DD would have fired back whereas the CA was unable to do that due to the SS hit.

I propose we roll in the Forum a single dice @2 to represent the DD firing and see if it hits. If it does the US loses another fighter. A miss and nothing changes.

Thoughts?
