Hmmm… really?  You bitched all of last game due to bad dice rolling.  It still would have been an easy victory due to your incredibly bad game play.  You left London unguarded and did little to reinforce Moscow.  It would have been easily overrun even with average dice rolling. I tried to be polite since it appears that you are obviously a relative novice and more experience would will help you improve.  Leaving capitols weakly defended is a common rookie mistake.

Now you had great dice rolls and still lost due to incredibly bad game play.  There were three major battles that all got hugely favorable results for you (5% outcomes).  Still you managed to lose because you insisted on guarding Paris, a capitol that I had absolutely no interest in attacking since my European stronghold would turn into French ownership.  You left both Germany and Italy’s capitols unguarded, making the same rookie mistakes as last game.  Instead of graciously conceding defeat at the hands of a superior opponent, you want to call me a cry baby?

I have been beaten many times by superior opponents and when I got crushed I admitted defeat and complimented them on their skill.  Do you do this in every match?

scramble?

yeah game is over, I’ll post

OK…that took more than I thought it would to take.  There’s no way I hold against the Italians, and you can reinforce with more than I can get there this next round.

Hate the VC thing where one entire side doesn’t matter, but it is what it is.

I’ll post in results.

Your 100% right :wink:

Thank you for the game. I find your conclusion of the game to be a bad reflection of actual events. If you look back at the game you often left yourself in positions where a 50/50 battle could take place, as the allies I decided to risk it in several of these cases and in a few cases it went well for me. The same can be said for risks you took like hen you sunk the allied fleet off London the odds were actually very against you and that went great for you. To say that it was 100% dice and no skill is offensive to me as a player. So again thank you for the game but I am not interested in a rematch.

Congratulations, you won! Didnt even wanted to finish the battle and post map. I tried it several times, needed to be lucky to win, guess today wasnt my day.

I’m gonna concede this. Sry, way too much to do

And that’s game…

Thank you for the game

I was supposed to win it with a clear margin. But yes. That was just crazy!

Really close game, I think we both made mistakes and I think we will both get better cause of this game.  If you want a re-match send me a PM.

Cool no problem.  See ya next season!

game up and scrambles awaited
