Wheatbeer (axis) vs Fortress (allies) g40.2

[Fortress]

No thanks! I’m the last person to complain about dice. I just finished a game that I got hosed in the Channel as UK; the rest of the game the dice derver was trying to apologize to me. These things have a way of evening out. And if not, oh well  :-) We’re playing with dice and weird things happen! Turn 1 stuff is what makes each game different. Game on!

[wheatbeer]

Okay … I’ll try not to whine about dice in the future … though I have to admit, I’m not always good at that  :lol:

US inf + art in “SE Mexico” are on the tranny in z28. Something was up when I moved them, and I thought I could edit them. TripleA won’t let me edit land units into a sea zone. So we have to do pretend-sies on that one for right now…  :-)

[wheatbeer]

No problem … you’re sure you’re happy with your fleet off Hawaii?

[Fortress]

yep  :-) Go ahead. Poke the animal. Lol. 1 turn of extra IPCs and 2 extra combat moves plus whatever material I take with me to the bottom of the Pacific seems like a fair tradeoff  :-D And dice have really been screwing my opponents lately, too… Fair warning  :wink:

6/6  :-o

[Fortress]

^ and THAT’S why I don’t complain about the dice! At least that was still a 75% battle with the 3 scramblers and not a total suck-out.

The worst: I felt badly when one of my opponents attacked a small Italian stack in Belarus (that I put there hoping he’d attack it and I could kill 3-4 infantry on the attack plus another 2-3 on the counter). Hit triple friggin 1’s on the AA and took out the entire Russian airforce. Minus their air support, the attacking infantry were slaughtered. Moscow fell three turns later.

[wheatbeer]

heheheh, that would really piss me off  :lol:

Italy attacked SZ97 with everything it could, my sub hit so that had to be taken on your carrier.  My other units scored 2 hits, so I need OOL.

[Fortress]

Might as well splash the 2 fighters. If I sink the carrier, you can just retreat and splash the second fighter anyway. As long as we’re going down, might as well get another roll @2 in the next round…

[Fortress]

The flipside, of course, is that if you don’t want to risk your air, then don’t attack aa guns with them. Attack that stack with something that will make itself vulnerable to a counter-attack… It’s all give and take - measuring what is likely and what is an acceptable loss.

In another game, I tried to strafe an Italian artillery pile with 5 Anzac fighters so I wouldn’t have to commit as many Soviet troops to retake the Ukraine IC. Missed all 5. And got 3 shot down for my trouble. As soon as I saw a 5 and four 6’s come up, I was like “yeah, this is way better than throwing an extra 6 IPC of infantry at the problem, dummy.” And I got what I deserved…  :-D I was ok with a loss of 1 or 2 taking out 2 or 3 artillery; I was not ok with losing 3 as a lesson, but I should have known that was a possibility.
