(I’ll change some Italian NCM also)

I was wondering why you’d risk so many forces… It’s true that with 60% and 3 surviving units I wouldn’t try to attack either. Lets take this as my ‘re-roll’ and I’ll post a new German turn.

You’re right, I didn’t calculate properly. Let me rethink this then.

I have to concede this game. I attacked Normandy with 5 inf, 1 art, 1 mec, 5 fig and 4 bombers. According to the calculator, I have an 86% chance of winning, with 6 units surviving on average. I already ran the fight 6 times, and the best I could get was winning with 1 bomber left.

This is ridiculous, but surely a sign that I’m not supposed to win this game. There’s no sense in continuing without the Luftwaffe, particularly because my buys assumed I would have some airforce left. It was a good game, but I can only take so much dicing.

Here it is. As I said, I hope you’re ok with the edits since they have nothing to do with the Russian turn. It’s all about the Western front, yesterday I didn’t have time to think about that properly.

I’m away from home, but I thought of yet another German edit:one of the AAs from N. Italy that moved to W. Germany boards an Italian transport instead. I’ll attach the file if I get home before you play.

:-) If ever there was a time for Russian optimism, it’s now…

If it’s ok with you I’m going to change some German NCM on the Western front, had to leave yesterday in a hurry a did it slapdash: 2 AA and 2 inf go to France instead of W. Germany, 1 inf stays in France instead of going to W. Germany, 1 fig in S. Italy stays there and another goes to W. Germany instead of Egypt, and I swap the builds of 1 art and 1 mec between W. Germany and Germany. You’ll see the edits in Japan’s move.

One edit: can you please move the Rostov inf back to Ukraine? Thanks.

Actually I’m being a bit rash, you can always sacrifice some Uk airforce to plug the Samara hole. I better roll on then.

I guess that’s game for me: Japan bombers and Italian tank and bomber hit Samara, then German panzer and air hit Moscow for the win.  :evil:

If you concede we can continue the game, but you’ll have to re-do the whole Russian turn - although you only lost one below average it was still lucky on your part, and now that my tactic has been uncovered I’ll only continue on fresh rolls, maybe I’ll be the lucky one ;-) You can change anything you want of course.
