G40L Boldfresh (axis) vs. Stalingradski (allies +8) game 1

[boldfresh]

i guess it’s obviously to the acc and bat…?

[boldfresh]

this is just ridiculous.  you know what the chances are of me getting 2 hits in round 1???  this only ever happens to me.

[boldfresh]

i had a much better chance at 8 hits than i did at 2 hits.  :roll:

[boldfresh]

and i got all excited when my sub hit  :roll:

[boldfresh]

map

[boldfresh]

whatever, i see no reason you wouldn’t tip the acc and bat here.  i’ll continue this ridiculous dicing.

[boldfresh]

ok you crushed me in round 1.  you hit 4/4 with your fours where i hit 0/4 with mine.  RIDICULOUS

i got 4 hits in round 2 now that they are meaningless.  what will you lose?

[boldfresh]

maybe you will agree to let me run this battle again.  to lose a 90%er in sydney and immediately the next round get diced this hard AGAIN?  come on maaaaaaaaan.

[Stalingradski]

Reroll this one and I get a reroll of my choice, whenever, wherever… deal?

Is this cool within the rules of the league? If so, no problem. The dice are messing with you.

[boldfresh]

i’m going to run that round 1 50 times and let’s see how many times i get 2 hits…

[boldfresh]

3 in 100 were 1 or 2 hits. about what i figured.  :|

[boldfresh]

@Stalingradski:

Reroll this one and I get a reroll of my choice, whenever, wherever… deal?

Is this cool within the rules of the league? If so, no problem. The dice are messing with you.

ok but not on a capital as i’m sure you would never have given me a second roll on sydney right?

[boldfresh]

before i agree to take you up on the reroll, let’s make sure you don’t get a blank in round 2 defense…  what’s your ool on round 2 so far?

[boldfresh]

i’ll just finish rolling it out giving you best defense.  if you kill all my stuff, then of course i will take you up on the reroll.

[boldfresh]

yeah, you crushed me.  that had to end up at about bottom 5% for me…  :lol:

[Stalingradski]

Ok, not on a capital fight, but anywhere else.

@Stalingradski:

Ok, not on a capital fight, but anywhere else.

ok.  that includes the amphibious assault portion of a capital fight.  appreciate the understanding - as you can understand, to lose the opportunity to take anzac out of the game for good, then lose the follow up fleet battle badly is a 0.1 PERCENT result that would completely crush japan.  1 time in 1000 at best is my guess.

maybe i can still make somewhat of a game of it now.  i appreciate the gesture, it’s akin to an all in poker pot where the players agree to run it two times.  i have never played low luck but i think it would be pretty boring.  i like the variability of the dice, it adds so much stategy to the game actually, but when you have an occurrence like this where a 1 in 10 even is followed up with a 1 in 100 event, and both battles were huge, it’s just going too far and i think this is a great way to handle it.  and out of the deal, you get a reroll of your choice, it doesn’t have to come after TWO bad events occur in a row.

cool - i like your style.
