    @Ragnell804

    The risk did not pay off… in fact it backfired and I had to eat two fighter deaths because of Russian infantry fire… 😣

    To be fair, the dice gods gave you a chance to call off the attacks when it was just your ftrs left.


  • @Ragnell804

    Heh heh yeah, but I was too greedy as I wanted to kill of your remaining Russian infantry too. 😅 Still, we can learn from this game because we have the numbers that give us a sense how far this game is from what an average game would be.


  • TUV Differential / Net TUV Round 3
    After G3
    Eastern Front: -39.4 / -26
    Atlantic/WA: -8.77/ +27
    Africa/Med: -4.63 / -8
    Total: -52.80 / -7

    After Allied3
    Eastern Front: -39.48 / -35
    Atlantic/WA: -15.33 / +15
    Africa/Med: -4.63 / -8
    Total: -59.44 / -28

    This is now even worse than my current game against TGC on the TripleA Forum, which I thought would be the worst game.

    I really dont know why i keep doing this moving to Leningrad and giving you the inside track to Moscow. I feel like I should’ve learned from my first 4 times doing this.

    By this I mean stupid mistake lol


  • @Ragnell804

    I had to laugh out loud when I noticed that, and even more so after reading your comment 🤣 Sixth times the charm!

    We can go again after this. Right now I am mostly interested in a game where the TUV differential is as close to 0 as possible - and then look what the odds for a German win are. However I must say, now that the main move of my German opener - attacking Ukraine - is not viable anymore, I kinda have to go back to the drawing board and test some new G1 strategies. I feel like at this point withdrawing from the EF combats is better to avoid painful Russian counter-attacks. In any case, I think we need at least 5 more games to see if Europe is balanced now.
