ok the bomber survived aa fire in egypt.  i will roll it separately in each round and remove the damage to the harbor.

16 hits with ground units in round 1, and here is the bomber roll:

Rolls: 1@4; Total Hits: 11@4: (2)

[boldfresh]

17 hits in round 1.  what will you lose?

[boldfresh]

also, if you don’t mind, after the first round defense roll, i will roll the rest of the battle using the aa.org dicey so everything will be right.

[boldfresh]

here is the map.  egypt battle is all that remains!

[Karl7]

lose aa and go right up combat value, all non british units of same combat value first

[boldfresh]

[Karl7]

this is rediculous…

[boldfresh]

man, that just ain’t right.  this just goes to show you how important it is to be the attacker and thus have the option to pull out of the battle or continue if it is a rout.

[Karl7]

you hit 9 out of 13 and I get 5 out of 15?  really?  what a joke

[Karl7]

If this was a one off thing, I might have resigned in disgust but since this is the overwhelming trend for me this league, i.e. getting routed by dice even when I was supposed to win, I now kinda don’t care…  :-(

[boldfresh]

the panzers meant serious business…

retreat 2 mech, 13 arm, bom to trj.  egypt holds with 2 tac, 5 ftr.

[boldfresh]

oh and 2 art also retreated.

[Karl7]

Why retreat?

[Karl7]

so Japan has a base?

[boldfresh]

yeah, i want japan to be able to build in the med.

[boldfresh]

plus you were due for a big round and i’d rather lose infantry than mech/art/arm
