I will check periodically tonight in case you need decisions during G9 so that you will not have to wait long and can finish your turn tonight (assuming you are playing)
-
well I’m going to attack russia with everything, so you going with best def here? I have almost an 80% chance which I never thought I’d see in this game :lol:
as I always say, between two good players it’s all about the dice :evil:
-
I want to see first round dice
Still respecting you
I have you at 73%
-
I did not expect you could send all 5 fighters east and buy 4 bombers, and as it happened all my Allied fighters were out of range. That coupled with your swingback from Caucasus, and suddenly you have 73% which also surprised me. But, with all due respect, I don’t think there’s any way you can win, even with amazing dice in Moscow

it’s about 77-78% when I do it… here goes
-
Are you using AACalc on the A&A site? Because I noticed earlier today when doing the calc on Moscow that it takes infantry off before bombers. That makes a big difference.
Well it is what it is now…. :-)
-
not good so far, aaa shot down 3, plus I lost the denmark battle which was a 90%… of course I lost 90% all the time for some reason :lol:
going with best def or what, 21 hits
-
Yeah, I saw the AA and Denmark dice
Sure, I guess it makes sense to go with best defense, go ahead and take off the bombers
-
ok you win, I knew that was coming after all the dice, save MAYBE a couple turns that went my way :lol:
-
that was pretty horrific… you won with 14 units remaining… that’s probably a 1-2% probability outcome :?
-
OK, Hobo,
Congratulations on a fantastic year once you got the rust off, an amazing 21-4 record plus 2 big wins in the playoffs, and an extremely crafty and scrappy champ game
Wish you well
-
yeah thanks for the game and congrats to you… if I had won that on the good side, this might have became an epic game :lol:
-
I was hoping that you would win Moscow
-
uhhh using low luck I would have won with 6 tanks and 8 air left. had I been slightly lucky there might have been 10+ ground units there, making a fairly dicey counter attack. even if you won the counter attack I would have taken it back for good with 7 mech and 8 air… not sure what you are saying when you wish I had won :-P
put it this way, you won with +13 units over average on that pretty disastrous attack. had I won with just half that outcome which was still about a 20-30% probability, you would not have been able to take back moscow…
-
I don’t think I needed to hold Moscow, and yes on the counterattack if it failed I would probably destroy almost all of the tanks
You said it would have been an epic game if it continued, and yes I half hoped you wouldn’t lose Moscow
But I am also glad I won and that the game is over. It’s called mixed feelings.
-
You won’t agree with me, but from my perspective you dodged a lot of bullets to get this far.
You are as dangerous and cunning as I remember from 5 years ago, and played like your record. Well done, and let’s refrain from arguing about the game. We see it differently, and I don’t expect that will be reconciled.
