  • Was on a pretty miserable sub defense streak in my games, so that one is a surprise. A lot of plinking until Anhwe and Korea, yes, stiff

    Today I completely whiffed on UK1 Zone 97, first round attack
    Good thing he didn’t scramble.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Almost like in this game. Well not whiffed, but I could save my BB.


  • My brain is in a different place right now -

    Which battle was that?

    I’m working on what looks like a huge error in the Triple A calculator. I think I might have found it years ago but forgot.


  • Oh man.
    Triple A calculator isn’t rolling for the AAAs at all.

    120 bombers vs 40 AAA and 1 infantry

    Calculator has the attacker only losing 1/3 of 1 bomber.

    I get wrong results on small, normal battles too. Time to alert everyone I think.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 When you attacked in SZ97 and I scrambled. Maybe UK2 or UK3.

  • 2023 '22

    @pejon_88 Hmm I get 60 bombers versus 10 AA (should be 6 hits) an average of 55.01 attackers left on run count 20k

  • 2023 '22

    @pejon_88 Adding one inf in def gives attackers left 54.67.

    Doesn’t sound wrong to me?

  • 2023 '22

    @pejon_88 My bad forgot the AAA shoots at maximum 3 air. If I’m not mistaken 60 bombers versus 20AAA should result in 30 attackers left, but calculator says 50? Adding an inf -> 49.71.

    Am I thinking this entirely wrong?

  • 2023 '22

    @pejon_88 1/6 + 1/6 +1/6 = 3/6, i.e 50% chance that 1AAA hits 1 air. Damn that means that there should be 40 attackers left, not 30 right?!


  • Survived with 2 planes and a battleship on a 59/35
    That was even worse for me than I was thinking


  • No, I think you’re pretty confused.

    1 AA vs 3 bombers should on average take down 1/2 a bomber

    2 AA vs 6 bombers should on average take down 1 bomber

    Now let me know what you’re seeing after trying a few more things.

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Yes looked now. +4TUV -> -50TUV :O


  • @pejon_88 said in L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2:

    Yeah, 20 AA against 60 bombers, so 60 rolls @ 1 or 10 hits. Sounds like your calculator is right. Is it Triple A?

    @gamerman01 Screenshots:

    Looks correct?

  • Yes it looks correct, thank you. Mine isn’t doing that. Good thing I didn’t start posting publicly


  • Now mine’s working. I’ll go back to the game I was playing when I noticed the error. Something’s strange…


  • It’s something in that game. I tried it with different countries, so it’s not like a UK Pacific bug or anything.

    Wait, in that game it’s working for Germany vs. UK, but not vs. ANZAC

    I had been doing a calculation on Japan vs. UK/ANZAC and realized the error, now it also doesn’t work Japan vs ANZAC

    Germany vs. ANZAC works…
    Japan’s not working against anyone. Can you replicate that? Japan on offense against AA?


  • US v anyone doesn’t work
    Russia v anyone doesn’t work
    Japan v anyone doesn’t work
    Germany does work

    OK, some combinations work and some don’t. Seems to depend on the combination of which powers??
