@FlyingBadger I realize the sub in 110 can slow down the G1 combat resolution, but… I still choose it

i am so tired of getting hosed by dice. :?
-
i just dare you to go and look at my last ten games and the
dice i have faced. you will be shocked. -
actually, i doubt i would surprise me. but who knows…
we all play this game knowing it’s a dice game. i’ve played a lot of games where i’ve tracked the dice, and in about 95% of them the dice stay fairly even most of the time. of course, as you are well aware, the dice can be dead-on even, and one turn of fracked dice totally turns the game - an often does. i’ve played a few games where the dice were just awful for one side or the other the entire game, but my experience has been that over time the dice tend to run 1-2% under average - which is statistically insignificant. of course, that’s the TOTAL dice rolls, and doesn’t take into consideration how wildly a game can swing on a single roll that is way over or way under average, usually in a battle that doesn’t appear that important, but because of the swing in luck, ends up determining the outcome.
anyway, as for running the japanese planes at india, i know it won’t make you feel any better, but that was the plan all along. i was counting on losing at least 3, maybe 4. and that was acceptable for what i wanted to do, as long as i could hit at least 10 of those infantry. now, unless you get fabulously lucky against the japanese, it’s just a matter of time.
surrender offer on the table…
we can swap sides and start again at any time. or keep going if you want. i really think you had a slight lead until the oversight in england. that really turned the tables… it was a $60+ swap, and russia really couldn’t afford that to happen in europe.
-
i have no doubt the game was mine before giving you london. the dice haven’t been off much this game, it was london that is the big difference. but as i said, i knew your plan was always to run those fighters into india and i was glad - IF i could get the 3 or 4 fighters. getting only 1 is a realy kick in the nuts when i need it the least.
-
not that anyone really needs a kick in the nuts, but we all hope that when it comes, it is one we can afford. losing london gave me a very slim margin and the ballsack was especially fragile. :lol:

aaaaaaaaaand the moment you mention that i was running slightly above odds, you come up with a 1 in 20 roll on offense. and now i’m BELOW odds… :lol:
-
it’s just freaking stunning. would have been really nice to have the italians lay an egg to make up for the aa debacle. and now i’m guessing this battle came out on odds or in your favor.
-
6 for 7 in the final round. what a joke.
-
just about at average… i was under for the first two rounds, that round put me at average. you ended up 2 over average, but you needed to land a haymaker. i didn’t want to tempt fate with the aa fire, so i left the fighters at home. now i’m glad…
