@Witt You were lucky getting a tech with just 1 die, and getting gas. The extra hit you’ll get from rolling 5’s instead of 4’s gives you much better odds (because of the relatively small size of both armies). Taking Mecca on T3 will give you a big jump on taking Cairo.

Thank you both for understanding. Will try to remember to post before Combat next time .
And will look again at my last go when it is my turn again . I had simply had enough of trying and worrying about it . It just wasn’t worth the hassle and potential bad head . Sorry. -

While Irk had no chance, at least C rolled poorly and had fewer units left than predicted. In my game with Entek, R moved out of Irk to attack C with 98% chance and 10 units predicted surviving. But after 2 rounds, R rolled -4.5 and C +2 and I retreated.
After USA’s last turn, I looked at the C and US moves and saw the Zep build in Yak, and saw there was no way to save the US tt’s. Since US had used the tt’s in combat, he couldn’t change his move. The T and C investments in Zep have been very productive. 5 Allied tt’s sunk and Allies spending on AA’s and then zep moves to threaten somewhere else. Paris will have to build an AA, since there are no other immediate targets for the T Zep. -
@fmerwinrommel Fear the Zep!

@redrum I got my MBA from the Univ of Maryland and our sports teams were the Terrapins and their motto was Fear the Turtle.
-
@fmerwinrommel Sorry to hear that… as the only thing I know Maryland for is being traitors and leaving the ACC to go the the Big Ten.
-
@redrum I also was disappointed when UMD left the ACC. I loved college basketball and the great rivalries and famous teams and players at UMD, Duke, NC, etc. from years past. And I didn’t follow college football, which is why UMD left for the Big Ten, to get more football sports revenue. Maryland’s football team wasn’t very good at the time.

There’s a conspiracy theory that the US deliberately left the transports where they could be sunk so that it would create war fever against the Commies, like “Remember the Maine”. But somehow, the Sea of Okhotsk isn’t an inspirational or catchy phrase. The other rumor is that the Commies paid the mother or grandmother of Tokyo Rose to encourage the U.S. troops to invade Hok. So when their way of escape was sunk, Samurai would lead the local populace to rebel and annihilate the invaders.

@elrood wich i did.
Hope to your satisfaction. -
Okhotsk was an inside job! ;-)

From the photo I took last turn, I can see that I had 12 Art in my stack , after I did Combat Move . I have removed 4, therefore .
