BM3 Colt(Axis) vs Rommel

[FMErwinRommel]

While the amazing dice favored the Allies across the board on Ger turn, it didn’t affect the situation on Rus counterattack on Mos.  A low luck dice on Mos would have saved Ger just 1 inf in the attack on Mos.  It was the size of the Ger move on Cau that gave Rus a slight advantage.  W/o Ger planes being able to land with the army, even that large army was vulnerable.  Slightly favorable dice on round 1, and Rus losing attackers with power of 1 and Ger losing defenders at power of 2, snowballed the odds in Rus favor on each successive die round.  But despite the battle gain of +134 PU and the other favorable battles, Ger is still in a strong position and has a big cash base.  The allies are not in position to help Rus much and Jpn is positioned to hinder.  Jpn is also in a strong position.

[Colt45554]

@FMErwinRommel:

Why did Ger build airbase in Yugo?  I know you want figs to scramble for Ita sea, but N Italy is better, as it covers 2 sz and flex for shuttling between Ger and Ita.  If your figs couldn’t reach Italy this past turn, that was an expensive build for a one-time situation.

With what Italian money could i afford that??

Umm, no. In LL that you referenced, you have an average of 5.00 units remaining and a +52 TUV swing. I would retake russia two turns later after killing brit blocker. Don’t understate the dice on this round when it’s this massive of a difference.

UK Pac beat the odds in Yun, but chose to retreat from battle with 2 tanks and 2 planes vs only 1 Jpn tank left.  Probably should have taken Yun, to prevent Jpn mech and planes from reaching and destroying Burma or bombing India.  USA gained 2 big N.O.'s and terr.

Yes, but once again the bulk of US Atlantic fleet will be sunk. I will be needing scramble and OOL for that battle.

Bri replaced the 2 figs that went to Gib, plus added another and a sub.  The U.S. added 2 dd and a sub.  Not enough to guarantee survival, but I didn’t want to use up a dd every turn to block the Ger navy.  I could have not moved Bri figs to Gib and then could have bought more ships instead of replacement figs.  Maybe Ger will find a better use for the bombers in St Pete.

[FMErwinRommel]

Oops, I just realized that 2 figs from St Pete can join the battle by landing on the cv.  If you use every available plane from St Pete, you will definitely win.
