I already stated we weren’t playing with anymore edits and I let one edit slide afterwards involving your Aussies. But I mean no more edits.

[hobo]

No, that’s fine I’ll just go with it taken back.  It’s no big deal and I guess I’ll just have to spend more time reviewing the powerful french.  But you do see the difference from changing ncm vs taking back dice already rolled… right?

I didn’t really have a reason to go on in that battle. I didn’t need to clear it so something could blitz through or to prevent something from happening. Germany was already low on air due to some aa hits and the channel scrambles.

[boldfresh]

@seththenewb:

Sorry, accidently hit the space bar one too many times against W. Ukr. Remove the inf and a tac if you aren’t kosher with that edit.

seth, i would agree with hobo regarding a noncom edit vs. changing what was lost in combat if more dice are rolled after the casualty choice was made.  if it were the last casualty choice on the last battle rolled, then a person would be nuts to object to a change in what was lost in the final round.

play on boys!  :-)

[seth4god]

I don’t know if you saw the battle or not. But I had infantry supported by tac/ftr combo against 2 inf. I lost both the inf and he lost one of his. I didn’t want to continue that battle but hit the space bar which rolled the battle. And my fix was to give him back the inf I hit in that last round and the air I lost. I let him know what happened and what I’d done. He wasn’t cool with it which is his prerogative.

But in my mind at that point it ceased to be a friendly game and I let him know that no more edits of any kind would be accepted. I’ve let people reroll battles or give them back a unit or two depending on the circumstances. And I could probably dig through and find half a dozen examples of that in my games, that’s a friendly game. This is no longer a friendly game and the chips will lie where they fall.

oh i see, i thought the issue was that you wanted to lose something different in that battle, not that you wanted to cancel the last round of combat.  hmmmm.  well i don’t think league games esp between tier 1’s will often fall into the friendly game category….  and when they do, it can be bad.  when i play karl, i’m TOO friendly and it almost always results in me losing.  :lol:

[boldfresh]

i think going to the extent of saying no combat edits is going a little too far…  why not just no
edits in noncom if the other player has rolled dice?

i mean, i kinda side with hobo on this one - it could be that it’s not that he doesn’t believe you
but rather that he made a choice that dice rolled are dice rolled and that way you don’t even
have to consider whether you have to believe a person or not.  i do understand what you are saying as well.

but the equalizer would be “well hobo, don’t even think of asking me for an edit on dice you have rolled” - right?

[boldfresh]

i mean, it could be an “unfriendly” game but still reasonable, ya know?  :wink:

course, if you’re a guy who plays better with some firey motivation, then i understand that as well.  :wink:

[seth4god]

Well, I try to be at least cordial and not be a dick about things. I just offered to let Wheatbeer reroll a battle in LL which he accepted and then he returned the graciously returned the favor by offering me a LL reroll. So the game wasn’t ruined by horribly one sided dice, it’s still a competitive game that neither of us wants to lose, and yeah we’re being gentlemanly about it. I’ve given players units back, including air; I’ve let them walkin to terr; I’ve let them kill undefended subs; or manually roll a battle that they forgot about (ie I forgot to kill that sub). Some things are a ‘no’ and others I’m ok with. It just depends on the player, the game, and the circumstance.

But we’re playing this one strict, I given hobo fair warning about it so neither of us can complain in the future about something. There are no edits. It doesn’t matter if dice were rolled, if it’s combat, or if it’s noncombat. It’s just no edits period end of story. You can side with whoever you want, but that’s my decision and it’s final.

no problem that’s totally cool seth - sorry if i was out of place - i just like to see reason prevail and i’ve only ever had one guy tell me there would be no edits of any kind and that’s cow in our GRUDGE MATCH, in which i DESTROYED him handily.  :-D

looking forward to pasting you in our game…. i think i know what direction i’m going.  :-)

[hobo]

bump

[seth4god]

I finally started working again. So moves will be a little slower now and I’m sorry for any delay. I should get in a move at least every other day now, although I’ll try for a faster move if possible.

[hobo]

no problem and no rush either
