L13 G40 Snake11eyes(Allies+10) v Gamerman01, no tech, game 2

[gamerman01]

109 is the last battle

I lucked out, scoring 4 hits

What do you lose?

G1 snake casualty choice 109.tsvg

[Guest]

1 destroyer 1 french fighter 2 british

[gamerman01]

OK, and I assume you will want to land survivors in London - edit if no

Hopefully we get a reasonable defense roll that’s not too slanted either way…. this could set the tone of the game right here…

[gamerman01]

Got my wish - 3 hits
Slightly in my favor - nothing ridiculous

Now, what to do, what to do

[Guest]

Nice, I won’t be able to get to my turn tonight but will post in the morning.

[gamerman01]

No problem, I just really appreciate the scramble and casualty choices coming in such a timely manner
Thanks for the FYI

[gamerman01]

Well, I failed miserably with 2 subs against the cruiser.  So the Italians are threatened by these 2 fighters

Dang tough call, but my instincts say to press.
I’ve been burned by my instincts many times, though….

[gamerman01]

Whew

Again, a pretty fair result, although overall I got somewhat lucky in 109….

I lucked out getting 2 hits, and then you luckily got 2 hits

Transport survives

Fair enough!

[gamerman01]

Freaking Italians had better appreciate it  :x

[gamerman01]

Yep, I acknowledge I was fortunate to take out 5 fighters and a destroyer when I had completely overlooked 2 fighters that could defend  :oops:
In my experience that happens pretty often.  Dice bail out the player who overlooks something, and punish the player who cleverly makes a shrewd move.  I call it “the curse of the clever”

Well you shot down a bomber, 2 tacs, and 2 fighters and your cruiser sunk 2 subs in Z91, so it could definitely be a lot worse for either one of us.

Good start!

(Sorry - it’s just the volatility of G1 makes me anxious - don’t want the game to be wrecked for either player right out of the gate, you understand)

Game with you tomorrow, then!  :-)

when I saw your z109 attack I assumed you had a trick up your sleeve but I guess not lol, I was definitely expecting to crush your airforce there. Next one the dice will be mine!!

@snake11eyes:

You’re probably right.

Recently in my game with PGMatt he completely diced me hard in Z109 and London on a G3 Sealion, but then I turned around and pasted 8 of his Japanese infantry in Manchuria with 13 infantry alone, losing only ONE infantry.

You roll enough dice, it tends to even out, usually  :-)

Off to church now…. gaming this afternoon

Sorry, man, I am on some kind of lucky roll
