• @colt45554 You forgot to roll for victory bonds. I may have to start charging a finders fee for reminding you. :blush:
    Austria can roll for you if you want, since it’s random dice.


  • It’s hopeless taking Paris later in the game. HG with tech defends at 5 and costs 4 1/2 with working women. So max 8 HG has 40 defense and only costs 36 PU. That’s 111 % defense to cost ratio. An attacking FG with barrage and inf pair have offense of 5 and cost 7. That’s a 71% attack to cost ratio. 77% with working women. Add 3 trenches that provide 6 hit points for only 9 PU.

    Cannot be worse than Colts Triple 1s for Tech


  • Doing Austria.

    So I need to roll VBs for France and add the result to their income?

    Also Austria just got VBs which I believe I will pick up this turn so also need to roll for those?

    So rolling for France and Austria in that order:

    [dice 2d6]

    [dice 2d6]


  • 2d6: 4, 6
    2d6: 3, 6


  • Attacked Tuscany. I think the OOL against my Gas was fairly obvious, but please tell me how you want to allocate the 28 hits with my non-Gas units in round 1. Also subsequent rounds. See attached.

    On the road to Rome!.tsvg


  • @private-panic Its standard that everyone takes the trenches first. 13 trenches x 2 = 26, that just leaves 2 hits to allocate against infantry.


  • @fmerwinrommel I agree, I think PP can safely resume rolling.


  • Are the Entente happy with that?


  • @private-panic They are, I asked Witt via messenger and he agreed with Rommels logic


  • I didn’t want to assume trenches first because that affected the strafe possibility.

    Isn’t Milan lovely at this time of year!.tsvg
