XDAP-2: Onward! Defrosted Tuna Team vs Death by Dice

[Most Holy]

Order 227: no step backwards.

[Canuck12]

Well, if you can’t beat them: join them. There’s no order against that is there?

We would graciously accept a Russian offer of an Alliance with the Axis powers against the EVIL forces of Democracy!

[ghr2]

we don’t ally with facists pigs!  especially when they betray our last alliance!

[Canuck12]

Oh come on. We just wanted to play. We knew you guys would never join in unless we started it for you!

Now if we could only get the states to join in…

[Noll]

I’m back.

I need scramble orders from Japan in seazone 6

Japan Scramble.tsvg

[666]

Missed the fgt on Guam and I can’t see where the OTHER fgt will land anyways, yes scramble. that is why they are there.

[Noll]

I have different legal positions where I can move my carriers in order to make those fighter lands, if they survive.

[Noll]

you won’t believe it. I lost a 88% battle and I didn’t do any damage. Just 3hits in total.

I lost 4fighters, 1tac.bomber and 3bombers.

Japan lost 1dd and 1tac.bomber.

Well fcuk if scrambling works that well lets do it again!

I thought you might have learned your lesson Noll…

I’m thinking full scramble and I have a feeling Mussolini is thinking the same.

You may go ahead if you like.

[ghr2]

ya well, I had good odds on baltic, except i did a fair bit better than average, sz6 was purely damn bad american dice and was a slaughter since america had 90% ish.

[ghr2]

so it went from 60-40 pro allied dice, to 60-40 pro axis dice at least.

[Canuck12]

Hahaha! Well that’s the thing about dice isn’t it. Sometimes they go Axis, sometimes they go Allies. I still haven’t been able to figure out why!

I quit counting ratios long ago. We’re gonna roll a lot of dice in this one. Good luck keeping track. In the end, we all face the exact same probability. But while you’re at it, remember that the Axis had some pretty weak dice against the French as well. The ghosts of 3 mech infantry and 4 artilleries can attest to that….

[ghr2]

thats true.  but u did spread ur forces a bit thin round 1
