BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)

[gamerman01]

Bryansk deja vu

I got an exactly average roll -

What do you lose?

[farmboy]

@gamerman01 I htought you might. For round 1, I will lose inf and mechs. If you keep going, there is a chance I will lose art over mechs, but not yet.

[gamerman01]

Uh oh, you are 3.5 under,
And I am 2 1/3 over on the 2nd round. This is the opposite of last time so far.

R10 Bryansk 2.tsvg

[farmboy]

@gamerman01 all mechs this round

[gamerman01]

You roll up 5 1/6
This party might be over, but maybe not. Let’s see…

[gamerman01]

3rd round, this feels eerily similar.

1 1/3 under, 7 hits instead of 8 1/3, what do you lose?

R10 Bryansk 3.tsvg

[farmboy]

@gamerman01 6 mechs and an art (I believe I have one mech and am keeping it alive.)

[gamerman01]

That does leave 1 mech, yes
Surely the Germans won’t do it again… hard winter…

[gamerman01]

Creepy, another 3 rounder. Retreat, place, your turn

[farmboy]

@gamerman01 looked to me that i was a bit above average on that last round as well. Maybe 11 or 12? So a good start for you, but looks like the dice ultimately favoured me.

[gamerman01]

I dunno, felt like it was basically even because my first round was better - I’ll run the overall calc for 3 rounds and that will tell us
So glad there was no AA there this time.

R10.tsvg

[gamerman01]

Yeah, you only got 10, 1/2 hit under.

[gamerman01]

We’re lucky, the dice haven’t been breaking our game, just plinking you on the lone defenders quite a bit. That Russian hit on the Italian mech in Bryansk looms large, and before that, an ANZAC plane got away from Burma and we all saw what it just did :O

[gamerman01]

I ended up with a -7, that is definitely better than average.

[gamerman01]

Not much. -13 was expected after 3

[farmboy]

@gamerman01 pretty close. I was obviously pretty relieved with how it played out in round 2 and 3 given round 1.

[gamerman01]

It was looking real bad for you. I’m glad it evened out, but still a little in my favor :D

This is what I did tonight instead of playing my turn…
Now I can see the situation better… ;)

I did not bother to put on all the starting facilities.
Does your situation look better now?

[gamerman01]

I haven’t set up a game on my board for years. I’d say this is a good time to break it out
