12L - Botider (allies +11) vs EB (axis) game 2

  • '12

    all you can do now is hit back with everything and hope to get just as lucky back.  :|

    funny thing is, he pulls off a 1% win like that and then says nothing.  when pressed he might say, “yeah that worked out better than i was expecting”  :wink:

    right EB?  :-P

    oh, i don’t blame him a bit. it was an aggressive, gutsy move. really, after his lousy dice on G1, i was pretty much expecting this, and figured on 3-4 tanks in caucasus, best case. i never dreamed there’d be 7 of them. but that’s to his credit… he took a chance. no fear, no favor.

    nice move, EB. dice luck or not, it worked and now you’re the driver’s seat. tip of the hat.

    i don’t blame him either - if it keeps working, why stop?

    exactly. although this strat has been around for a while, and is usually fairly easy to defend against, if you get the dice and can hold it, it sure tips the game dramatically. i just felt like he really had no choice after his G1 - he had to do something, or the game could have gotten away from him quickly. the italian result was very positive and gave him a serious chance to take caucasus (about 70%), but my poor defense really has him sitting pretty right now. sometimes you gotta gamble…
