11L 41 Tyzoq (Axis) v Boldfresh (Allies+3) +Tech Game 1

[Tyzoq]

Ouch

[boldfresh]

absolutely freaking incredible

i get one hit in on your battleship and you sink two subs and down a bomber - that is one of the most phenomenally lucky rolls I have EVER seen…  the chances of that are…  hmmmm let’s see

0.67 * 0.67 * 0.9 * 0.1 * 0.1 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.67 = 0.067%

that means you had a roughly 1 in 1500 chance of that result…  that is pretty darn lucky.  well, the italian fleet lives to see another day, completely intact.  it’s a miracle!!!   :lol: sometimes all you can do is just scratch your head…

The odds are actually about 0.254% (there are 5 different units you can get your 1 hit with and you have to take the sum of all the probabilities).

Nonetheless that one will go into my memory as one of the worse rolls I’ve seen, not the worst, but I haven’t seen many that bad.  Lucky break for Italy.

[Tyzoq]

Did you mean to leave your 3 land units in the Congo?  If not you may move them any time before you do the US turn, Italy doesn’t have too much to do.

let the snowball effect begin…  :-P

[boldfresh]

obviously all my plans included that fleet being at the bottom of sea…  :lol: :lol:

[Tyzoq]

It was a bad time to get diced.  I’ve seen many games end on bad dice.  Including one 2nd edition game in which I never heard from the Axis player after Germany 1.  :-(
