Scramble?

[lexgreat]

Quite determined attack. Pls scramble one Italian fig, one German fig and the tac.

Unlucky in China you have been, lets see if it evens out a bit, now.

[miamiumike]

I am going to go ahead and concede here. You hit - LITERALLY - every single time on defense off Italy. 7 total hits. Combine that with all the other poor dice, and this game is over.

Sorry I could not make it more of a challenge for you - I probably should have just stopped when you offered.

Take care and maybe we will play again sometime!

Regards
MM

In case you missed earlier post - GG - I concede

Take care sir!!

MM

[lexgreat]

Dont do that. And if you insist to end the game, I dont accept the win and we nullify the game. Dont post it in game results, pls.

[lexgreat]

Mike, what I can offer with no debt involved is that we go by statistics: I have a defense value of 18, diveded by 6 is three hits that you can allocate the way you want. Add your attack value (dont know by heart right now), I apply losses. Surviving stuff does the same, for all values above multiples of 6 we roll. I would prefer that to total rerolls. Again, I wont accept the win otherwise.

[miamiumike]

Alex sir - you are truly a gentleman. Dice are a part of this game - and the more I play G40 (I have played mostly anniversary and 1942 - 2nd Edition FTF), I have determined that bad dice at the very beginning of this game - even with as big a game as it is - seem to almost spell doom faster than the other games that play smaller.

Maybe that isn’t true - maybe it just ‘feels’ that way. I also know that I am not a very good Allied player - 90% of the time I play Axis. You combine that with the fact that the dice have been what they have been and the fact that you are a great player - and what we have is the making of a game of futility for me. Yeah, you won’t win maybe in 3 turns - but you will win and, it just won’t be all that much fun for me - except maybe as a learning tool.

At any rate - again, you are very generous with your offer to both use odds on the dice and to null the game. Let me look the board over - actually placing the units I bought and see what we have. If I decide not to continue - I still want you to take the win - you still earned it.

MM

Alex - going to revisit this - it is the least I owe you….
