[Amon-Sul]

[trulpen]

I said it before. Not to be derrogative, but I fucking hate your dice! I’ll lose this game mainly because of that. So many key situations to your advantage.

I think so. Will check the rules in a while when I’m less pissed off.

Of course, I should’ve lost already if I hadn’t been lucky in sz91. I acknowledge that.

I think if it happens its not because of dice, but because axis play was better. the dice were with me in some small battles, but i had a big loose in a key battle in sz 91. the dice are then just an add to the play that marked its path to victory.

what really hurt for u was sz 110 in first round, other things are bunch of small battles later in the game which i dont think if went on average would secure allied win.

axis are dominant on all fronts.

we dont have to agree, but i know the feeling when U are behind in a game , trying to even, and u expect slightly more then average dice, and u get the opposite. it hurts

That’s not true. I expect even less than average dice and still fail. I didn’t do anything fancy neither in FCA nor NW Persia. Secure battles. Atleast in NW Persia, and main point in FCA was to atleast kill the fucking dude.

[trulpen]

I don’t care so much about FCA, but NW Persia is really wretched. That’s why I went in with a fig there instead of using both in Afghanistan.

thats dice
cant change it

thats why i dont have big expectations from small battles

[trulpen]

And three land units. That’s pretty secure.

But you hit 2/2 first round (which made the huge difference, of course), 0/2 second round and 1/1 third round. That’s 3/5 with 33 % probability per dice.

I hit 0/4, 1/2, 0/2 with much higher probabilities.

It’s a more or less sure battle. Unless it’s me against you, of course…
