@Stucifer RE: bloodbath…wow!
Re: scramble for sub/transports. That’s what I thought the rule was, but the game asked for a scramble option so I thought maybe something had changed since I played last. It hadn’t come up in @mikawagunichi 's game.
@Karl7 a very good round for my Allies.

@Karl7 wahh… you didn’t blink to even retreat? woah
I marrinaded the whole night on my Russian turn on what to do, until I came up with a solid idea to drop your attack to below 80%.
My heart bleed when I realized that I couldn’t bring in my bmbrs to drop your attack even more and make it totally unattractive.
Those two AA hits made it almost perfect.
But yeah, rolling above average helped, too.
Germany rolled good , too!
Good Game Karl!
the odds were like 75, not bad but not great. The first roll sealed the deal. Even though Germany did ok Russia rolled awesome, unbelievably well.
+8 and then +7 above par rounds 1 and 2.
compare
+4 and +2
that’s how you lose a battle at 75+ %
