@JWW:
I think the avg D s/b 11 hits. maybe 10. That was FAR less than avg….not good
The 2’s and the AA fire will be included in my statistics…. Notice which stats you refer to when determining luck. Not the offense, but the defense. So you’re agreeing with me about defending AA fire and 2’s being a key indicator of luck. :-)
I referred, to all the dice my side threw that turn, 1’s,2’s & 3’s and the outcome being below avg. I would disagree with you about defensive two’s and aa fire being a key indicator to calculating luck. A Key indicator imo would be O & D 2’s and 3". probably the most often dice thrown. but it is an argument we can discuss later… need to carve the bird soon. speak later. have a good day!

Over the past hour or so that I’ve been working on my Russian turn, I again realized that this is a very good game. I am NOT “coasting”, because one is not coasting who spends an hour on a turn. While I am supremely confident of the result, it will not be without many hours of intense thinking (I love this game - the strategy and the puzzles and the guessing and the dice and the little green army men……)
I want to be clear - you’re playing a good game, and if I make it to round 4 I will have really earned it, going through Axis_roll, Dutchman, and yourself (and I have never defeated any of these players before this tourney - you’re the only one I’ve even played 1v1, and that only once). There were no easy games for me in this tournament. And the winner of this game gets to face the #1 seed, Yoshi, who has handled me twice before.
A happy Thanksgiving to you, too.
I look forward to seeing your super-power move and to responding with the 3 mid-sized allies…
And for the record - a UK with 6 fighter planes and a bomber, 5 transports, a large army on the European mainland, and an income of 32 is not weak, no matter how many territories Japan has picked off. :-)Also, until this turn Russia has not been fighting a “two-front war” as you said, for many rounds now, as measured by the number of new units purchased and sent West. I have been turning 90% of the attention toward Japan for several rounds now, as evidenced by the taking of StC, Far, and 5 Chinese territories as of R16. :-) It looks like you are threatening one last pincer on the Bear with Germany and Japan, so you are now turning it into a 2-front war for them, but it hasn’t been a 2-front war for Russia for quite a few rounds now.

@JWW:
If you wouldn’t keep posting about how you beat me once in league play, you wouldn’t have to listen to the excuses. :roll:
???
Seriously? :lol:
JWW, you have posted about your win over me in league play on at least 3 different threads, and now you’re bringing it up again during our tournament game. That’s exercising your bragging rights quite a bit for one game! And hasn’t anyone ever told you that “just making factual observations” is often bragging? Depends on which facts you’re observing!The Pittsburgh Steelers have won more Super Bowls than any other team in the NFL.
The St. Louis Cardinals are the World Series Champs, and defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, the Milwaukee Brewers, and the Texas Rangers in the 2011 post-season.Etc.
Most people would call this bragging, considering that I am a life-long Steelers and Cardinals fan. But all I have done is to state some indisputable facts.
Also, the frequency with which you make “factual observations” may constitute “bragging”. If I state these facts about my favorite teams to you often, that would be bragging.
Oh, JWW, you are quite a trip. :-) -

No fair! You can edit posts in-game! If I say something I want to take back, or make a typo, I can’t change it without begging a mod… :-P -
Forgot about the Red October way down there.
Move it to Z45 -

No fair! You can edit posts in-game! If I say something I want to take back, or make a typo, I can’t change it without begging a mod… :-PI just hit enter, sent an empty/blank response to your post, had a bit too much wine beofre responding and then went back in to type a response. In retrospect, I should have left it as a blank/empty message. :-D
I am sick to death of the steelers. The Ariz cards were robbed in that superbowl.
W/respect to the factual statements vs. bragging etc, I would argue it is the way you take it, hear it, feel it. I think I mentioned it twice (I could of course be wrong) you should relax my friend, have a drink, loosen up, breath…… :-D :lol: :-D

Just saw that Darth took you down. Not a good way to start the 2012 league. Hope that sends you into TILT mode. :-D :-D

Really, god damn, I guess I should stop playing drunk!

You’re such an antagonizer
-
A little confusing -
Egypt stack to Libya does not include planes
But then Man stack to Kia does include the plane…You have 4 fighters in 34 but said 4 going to Yun and one going to 38. Oh - got it now - you only moved 3 to Yun…

46% odds on Berlin, with a great chance for the Americans to finish the job if it fails? Tempting, but I can wait.
