@cwglee51

I want to clarify a few things before we start:

1. Are we using battle calculators?
2. Are we sending the files to each other here or over email?
3. The play by email function is broken (technical issues) on my end, so we can’t use that (we’ll just have to use the local game function and I’ll track dice to ensure neither of us are cheating). I hope this is okay.
4. Are we using research and development/tech rules?

Belarus: -0.21 swing
Smolensk: -1.98 swing

Net Allies dice swing: -4.73 swing

@FranceNeedsMorePower

I’m afraid not. Maybe on the weekend, I’m a bit busy. I think game’s norms/rules are all worked out.

@FranceNeedsMorePower

I’m up for it! Should we use battle calculators?

@j_stroyer

Good game. Your Pacific moves were intriguing and your China-India play kept me honest as Japan.

Germany Turn 3 Complete Global 1940 Game 37.tsvg

No, you should keep using it. I use it a lot. I just wanted to make sure this game was fair.

Round 3:

Germany:

Sea zone 91: +0.12 swing
Sea zone 125: +0.14 swing

Total for round 3: -0.26 swing against the Allies

Net Axis dice swing: +1.59 swing
Net Allies dice swing: -1.59 swing

US:
Sea zone 16: -0.62 swing

UK:
Yunnan: +0.26 swing
Anglo-Egyptian Sudan: +0.4 swing
Kenya: -1.25 swing

Italy:
Morrocco: +0.77 swing

Total for round 2: -3.56 against the Allies
Net Axis dice swing: +1.2 swing
Net Allies dice swing: -1.2 swing

I calculate strategic bombing raids seperately. The US raid on Paris is +0.17 swing in favor of the Allies since the AA missed, but the bomber slightly did less damage than on average.

By the way, are you using battle calculators for this game?
