Well, I don’t know how the likelihood of the Yunnan-battle is, but this is close to game over in the Pacific combined with the flawless G1. This could become a short game. First time in my life I did not get Yunnan back Chi1.

[JDOW]

According to the calculator it is 97% when ticking the “retreat when air only left” button. Now I need to think if that 3% is worth it to save a Chinese inf or if I in the future always take Jap+2 Inf there :-/

I gonna roll sz110 and sz106 in the forum in order to let me shoot first before you subs shoot.

[wheatbeer]

If you want to reroll (low or pure luck) in exchange for granting the Axis a future reroll (low or pure luck as I prefer), I’d do that.

[JDOW]

Thanks for the offer but this would be inconsistent with my beliefs :-)

I took the 3% risk and I have to take the consequences.
