We have ANZ/France both lined up,
Need an I1 player
I won’t wait long.
May open it up to others who’ve played once already, there’s nothing wrong with that, just not as preferred -
Game should keep hopping, it’s a hot seat and it’s getting cold!

Of course, I meant to say stomps me LIKE a grape… LOL
Better than stomping you ON your grapes… ;)
Fortress as Allies defeats MiamiUMike as Axis in round 2.
GG to Fortress - if you want to pkay a high quality opponent who is also a lot of fun to play, Fotress is your opponent :)

Will be taking a long break from the game - need to recapture the reason I played in the first place….
Thanks, Mike – but anybody looks like a good player when their opponent flies into a 1-in-7776 chance of 5-5 AA gun hits.
Mike,
Don’t forget it’s just a game and have fun with it. :-D

Wow. Yahtzee.
For those too lazy to go look and see what happened -
Miami did an SBR on the UK with 2 bombers and 3 tacs, and every single one of them got shot down by AA.
I’ve lost 4/5 air to AA on simultaneous raids (which was all 5 of my aircraft) but never 5/5. It’s devastating.
As Fortress said, it is a 1 in 7,776 chance.
Once in a while the dice will win or lose the game for you and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it.
Re-capture those reasons you started playing in the first place, Mike, and flush these memories from the ol’ memory banks! If you play enough A&A, things like this inevitably happen - it’s the law of averages
Maybe go read a thread about bad luck dice, or start a new one - those are always fun and maybe it will be therapeutic :-)
One of my early games on this site, years ago, I attacked 3 tanks with 13 of my own. In round 1, I missed with all 13 of my tanks, and he hit with all 3 of his. Now this wasn’t devastating to me, as order was restored in round 2, but freaky things can happen with dice. It’s actually the unpredictability and unreliability of the dice that is a big part of the beauty of this game….
By the way, the chance of 16 50/50’s all going the wrong way at once is
2^16 = 65,536
I swear the TrippeA “random” number generator will spit out 1’s any time its an AA gun or lone sub defending… subs always seem to hit on defense!
Sounds like it’s got in your head, Karl!
Paranoia will destroy ya! :wink:
