Thanks for politely not assuming it’s ok, but yes I’m totally fine with that
You did come away with a couple planes more than according to the Triple A battle calc, but I think it was time you got slightly favorable dice. The Germans hardly fought back on the Russian turn
You caught me on a rare mistake, I think I missed the 2 yellow bombers! Again, well played. Now for the USA to try to build back from the rubble
Hm, looking at the history instead of dice e-mails, it looks like it was very fair dice, with a very slight edge to you.
I consider myself lucky because I exposed myself to dice and didn’t get hit hard by them. That is, I gave the dice a chance to punish me and didn’t get hit much harder than average.
Well, game on!
Yes the battle was normal.
I have to play well because I see in the game that you are a very good player.

Well that makes up for the R6 luck - I won’t feel bad about it any more :+1:
Thanks for doing the ranking very fast.
You feel bad because of the landing in N/B ?
Only at first. But I’m really glad you built nothing on Germany. Just at a glance, I will probably use 2 USA ground units to take S. France for 8 IPC’s, probably take Holland with ANZAC, but before that I will see what the trade will be if I stack Normandy as much as possible. It would be great for me if you send mech from Germany to Normandy.
Yes, at a glance I may be loading everything I have onto Normandy and maybe not even taking S France, just blitzing Holland will give US + 8, but of course I will run the numbers on USA turn.
Thanks for asking, I enjoy answering questions
OK so now I ran the numbers (of course)
I don’t have to put many planes there and you have 0% on Normandy this turn. So no, no regrets for landing and loading ANZ and US transports… :smirk:
And you are so welcome for ranking updates -
I actually enjoy adjusting them for every finished game that gets reported.
I also like trying to decide how accurate I think they are.
I am very pleased that in the playoffs the higher seed almost always wins, so I think the ranking system is quite accurate.
Looks like 1944 for Germany. DDay was successfull, Volgograd is far away, Armygroup Middle is destroyed and Red Army will attack german Mainland. I need Wunderwaffen (Miracle weapons) or help from Japan.

:) I enjoy all comments, and not just when I’m winning.
I’d like to share a tip with you that I almost never share because I think some people would think it’s weird or stupid.
A long time ago I discovered a very good indicator of whether you are winning or not. Every round I play, for several years, I track what the total unit value (in the players tab) is at the end of the UK turn.
No matter what round it is, this measurement seems to be quite accurate. Compare the total unit value (TUV) of the Axis to the Allies at the end of the UK turn. In all my experience, if the Allies are ahead by more than 500, they are winning. If the TUV difference is less than 400, the Axis are probably winning. Between 400 and 500, you have a tight and competitive game. Of course, if one side makes better moves and/or has better dice for a round, it can be turned around. And of course this is not a fail-proof metric, but I’ve rarely seen it fail.
If you take a look at some games, maybe even some of your past games, it would be interesting what you might see.
I continue to wonder if the China garrison rule is too harsh on the Axis.
You’re right, it does look like 1944. Except for that rocking German fleet and pretty big Luftwaffe :hushed:
And in the Pacific theater, it’s closer to mid-December 1941 I think…
You are right. I like statistics too. I did it with football rankings as child, need it for exchange trades and sometimes for work.
I wont look for TUV in my bad games only in the good ones.
And Martin and I are happy to find people like playing A&A.
We thought we are crazy to like this game because nobody knows and plays it in Germany.
In the Pacific you should buy one more ac to have correct number for the battle of Midway. I hope for an unhistorical victory.
