I’m afraid I have a new one.
J2, attack on India.
I tried a new strat of ignoring China (at least for first turn or two) and trying to go through Russia and UK territories. After all, you’re taking money away from other powers that way…
So I just got LRA for 10 bucks (yeeha) and then attacked India with 3 infantry, 4 fighters, and 1 bomber. It’s a good thing I didn’t send in more (I had more air than that).
India defended by 4 infantry, 1 fighter, and the all-important AA.
Yep - I killed one UK infantry unit.
AA killed 3 out of 4 fighters, AND the bomber.
I lost 2 infantry, 3 fighters, 1 bomber to 1 infantry (48 to 3)
Fortunately I decided against an IC in neighboring Burma, because the UK could easily take it over.
My only consolation - I still have LRA, 5 fighters and a bomber.
I think the RNG on this site is very random and reliable (I mean, it simulates dice well). I have never seen a roll like this until now, on this site (4 out of 5 ones).
48 to 3! My battle calculator had me at 85% of victory, and that includes taking over the territory (worth 8!).
That’s probably the worst luck I’ve had in trying to take a territory.
