13L Play-Off, QF, Cow (Allies +12) vs AlexGreat

[lexgreat]

Agree, the LL reroll is not such a good idea. Just wanted to confirm as many use this, right now.

[Cow]

It is exactly why I put an infantry in france. It could mean the difference between holding it. LOL.

[lexgreat]

Yes, quite malicious ;)
I have lost France before (as have others), never a battle I look forward to.

[Cow]

It is supposed to keep germany from hitting southern france and normandy! :X

[boldfresh]

Go get him alex.  I do agree the ll reroll is a bad bad idea, esp when you are playing someone better than you are.

[JDOW]

@alexgreat:

I have no pity for anybody who loses in France and attacked with anything less than 7 Inf, 3 Art, 6 Tanks and 4 mech. In case you lost in this setup, this is just insane. Anybody who dilutes that attack must live with the fact that he loses 2-4% of his games in G1 already :)

[lexgreat]

Quite so :)

[lexgreat]

Cow, I had to give you a French inf in France, not a UK one as the territory is French at game start. Only makes a difference if I fail to take it, but let me know any issues you might have, please.

[boldfresh]

that’s not fair - the british are much better fighters than the french.

@Boldfresh:

that’s not fair - the british are much better fighters than the french.

you can just use edit mode you know.

[Cow]

that is fine.

[Cow]

you should be able to take it anyway lol. it is meant to just die and deter you from doing southern france etc.

[lexgreat]

Scramble orders, pls.

[Cow]

I will post when I get home 4-5 hours from now. I am at a public pc right now.

[Cow]

Yeah I will scramble 1 fighter to sz 111, it will most likely get to roll twice.

[lexgreat]

Cant say I am hoping for that, too.
