No problem at all - you didn’t change your buy after rolling consequential combat dice.  No explanation needed - thanks.

@Boldfresh:

i feel for ya gamer.  i can somewhat relate.   :-P

Thanks, it’s quite a cursed streak, but it’ll probably all be good in the end.

I think I’ve got the Europe win.  But this is actually my first time I’ve got to play Germany for 6 rounds, so this is pretty much a maiden voyage at this point :)

It’s gonna be great to take over Moscow…. Caucasus… the Middle east… I’m gonna be rich!

Unless Snake has some serious tactics up his sleeve that I’m not seeing

[gamerman01]

Aw, dang, Germany doesn’t get the NO if she feeds Moscow to the Italians……

[gamerman01]

@Boldfresh:

i feel for ya gamer.  i can somewhat relate.   :-P

Well, I still believe in doing the same things that I would do anyway (or I wouldn’t have tried an SBR, that’s for sure), but if this keeps up much longer I’ll probably get paranoid and more conservative.

But no amount of horrible luck will ever make me consider playing “low luck”.  What a ridiculous bastardization of the game (credit to Bold for coming up with that appropriate label first)
