@FlyingBadger I realize the sub in 110 can slow down the G1 combat resolution, but… I still choose it
12L - '41 - Bold (allies +3) vs. Botider, -tech, +NO

for reference to what i am talking about, see my game with tyzoq. i made a huge fleet attack this morning with odds to kill his fleet and end up with 5 planes on average. instead he killed everything of mine and survived 2 acc, 3 ftr. battles like THOSE are the ones i specialize in failing at dramatically.
-
did that just deny the NO? wow, that’s about a 4% chance… but again, a small battle wait until the big ones… :wink:
-
oh no you are doing germany. no NO denied after all :|

i feel your pain. it’s especially infuriating when almost all of the infantry rolls are 4 or less and the bomber is whiffing away.

naval battles are notorious for zany results… i expect that. it’s the little bitty ones that drive me nuts. makes me wonder how often during the actual war that something really unexpected happened, and ike went, “what the… ? how did that happen?” like in Great Escape:
hilts: “hold on to your shorts, bartlett. you’re 20 feet short.”
bartlett: “what? how’d that…”
hilts: “you’re 20 feet short!”he rolled 12 6’s in a row with his tunneling tech! it happens…

i’ve got good news for you, you did not collect your 5 NO for italy on I1. i will add it to your account and flag the NO on the board.
-
scratch that, got confused. you took lib on G2. ok i better take a close look here before doing anything rash.

oh, by all means, do something rash! 8-)
