    but you sacrifice more than 13 to get it. Â

    What I mean is that I don’t cry bad luck for all the things that happened to me in this game, so it always sounds like I’m the only one getting lucky rolls.

    I’m not crying here, I’m just trying to confirm that I can trust the odds calculators or not.

    also, what’s the chance of 4dd in 4different seazones all hitting me back?

    Making me lose 1anzac fighter, 1american fighter, 1submarine, 1dd?

    although it is a shame, because it would have been awesome to play out the game with the expected result.

    I think we agree that this is a game of dice, and the dice can be crazy.

    anyway, at the end of the day, I’m not ready to comment on balance after 1 game, but I do believe that it played out like WW II.

    @corriganbp:

    1.) UK fleet in 91, 98, 110, 112 move to 111 (includes tac bomb on cv)
    2.) Naval base in Scotland
    3.) airbase on Gibraltar
    4.) fighter on Malta and gib removed, moved to Scotland
    5.) interceptors shoot at 2
    6.) USSR Dow rights delayed to Round 6
    7.) USA DOW rights delayed “end of” Round 8
    8.) One consolidated income for UK, to be used as they see fit

    France and Italy switch sides = no! It’s too complicated, also, if Italy switches side I think it will help the Axis more xD

    since the expected number of hits is 6, probably greater than you believe, certainly greater than 5%,

  • NollN

    Something like 45% instead of 33% in the attacker favor?  :-D

  • NollN

    Anyway I had something in mind but it might need a lot of tweak.

    Removing Anzac to play, making Australia part of UK, making UK a very big power, giving it also the Anzac NOs.

    Removing 10 to 20 NOs from USA.

    less than 5hits = 2/10
    6+ hits = 7/10

    5%?  :-D

    I said certainly greater than 5%.

  • corriganbpC

    try 121 shots at 2, 10 times or even a hundred times.  Then try 12 shots at 2, you’ll see there’s a lot more variability as a percentage of the expected in the smaller number of dice.

    of course.

    Things get “standard” on bigger numbers actually. Something like 1000dices.

    For example the 120 dices

    The best roll had 47 hits, 7more than expected is nothing in a 120dice count.

    Indeed you had bad dices on your side, still this can be expected unfortunately. And I think it’s part of the fun of the game. If you can predict the outcome of a battle 100% of the times, the game become boring.

    You had 86% chances of winning that battle. I guess the 14% striked you back.

    14% is not that hard to achieve, it happens around 1/6 of the times.
