Hey everyone

Suppose 3 connected seazones, let’s name them A - B - C. The only way to go from A to C is through B. And inversely, the only way to go from C to A is through B.

Suppose the American has its navy in A and Japan has its navy in C. Japan blocked seazon B with a ship (not a destroyer, so it doesn’t block sub).

Are you allowed to move subs from A to attack C IN THE SAME TURN you are attacking B? I’m guessing no but needed confirmation

Drunk Soviet AA operators will take care of the defense of Moscow. No interception

@DoManMacgee Thank you for your reply!
I do remember Monte Carlo from one of my Programming-algorithm class (bad memories!)

I don’t see any 1940/global option. Does it matter?

We considered a safer normandy dropping but when the calculator gave us those odds for Western Germany, we thought it was our best possible move to damage Germany!

@Makalakalane : Since our first TripleA game, we’ve been using this calculator https://www.aatoolkit.com/conflict

Our background in stats/probability is rather limited (i took 1 class in University, not sure about @Basile_01 if his field demands knowledge in them) so we rely on external tools. Like @Basile_01 said, even with only 63% odds, I think we would have attempted it if we thought it was the best move (risks/rewards) considering other options. Us seeing 93% victory definitely made the attack a no-brainer.

It may sound like an excuse, but that’s really how we planned our turn. If the odds would have been unfavourable, maybe we would have done things differently.

Anyway, luck and back luck are part of the game!

Indeed, my latest british rolls were pretty frustrating.
We can keep the game going if everyone want to. Maybe the Axis will get diced later on, who knows!

Yeah, Allies surrender after British crushing defeat in West Germany!

Anyone with solid math/stats background can vouch for one of the calculator out there? Which one do you generally use?

I’ve tried these two :

Results show enormous difference for the same battle.
