G40 Romm (X) vs Icha (A) 16 Bid

[miamiumike]

Actually, I was thinking of India until I realized it was Germany’s turn…I was fortunate in Persia (very). Expected to lose at least 1, maybe even 2 planes.

[Ichabod]

You don’t have to go for India…but if you do and the dice fails you (it’s a close battle slightly in your favor), are you going to play on?

GG

93% chance to win and it wasn’t even close….I hit 8 times in the first round, when I should have hit twice that. So much for that game - completely killed by the dice.

[miamiumike]

What a completely frustrating way to lose a game. I will not be playing for a bit - this kinda ruined it for me. Sorry.

[Ichabod]

I understand.
