went for Bryansk as I thought my odds were pretty good. But apparently I misunderstood it or that below average first round killed me. I took your British bomber as a casualty assuming you would go max defense. If you think you might have held onto it given the rolls feel free to change it for a Russian inf if you prefer.

[MarshmallowofWar]

Your odds were actually excellent by my calculation if you took everything that could get there. So either you didn’t do that or you rolled badly.

Marsh

[MarshmallowofWar]

You might be wondering why I stacked if your odds were excellent. Well, first I missed Italy clearing Belarus so that you could bring the Novgorod forces in. However, even after that I saw that I had a two-pronged counterattack that would all but annihilate your forces in Russia, and you had no follow-up forces coming – it would have taken you three or four turns to recover from that, and you never would have been able to kill Russia.

[farmboy]

I brought in everything I think and had about 85%. My first roll was 6 below and yours was 3 above and that made the difference I think.

I’ve had a fair bit of dice luck in this one so it was definitely your turn.

[farmboy]

I did figure that that was what you were going for but 85% odds are hard to ignore, especially since your air was there too. I was hoping that with Novgorod and Ukraine I would have been in a position to more quickly recover but definitely a risk.

[MarshmallowofWar]

Yep, the dice always swing. You made the right call in retreating.

I don’t think you made the right call in attacking though, for reasons that I already outlined – by my calculations I had about an 80% chance of clearing all but a few German units from Russia right there, which is well worth the gamble based on the strategic ramifications of the outcome.

[farmboy]

Definitely a good setup. Even with the retreat, I’m in trouble on the eastern front.

Apologies for the delay – I had plans for if you didn’t attack Bryansk and if you won Bryansk, but not for if you lost Bryansk. Had to figure out some stuff!

No worries at all.

[MarshmallowofWar]

Having a PC issue, fan dying quiet noisily. It’s like a mini auto crash every few minutes. Trying to get it repaired. Assume it’s going to be three days before I can post.

Sorry.

[farmboy]

no problem and sorry to hear you have to deal with that. Hope its an easy fix.

[MarshmallowofWar]

Had to replace two out of three fans. All three were dead, and it was the last one dying. Just got it back today, will play asap.
