@Boldfresh:

It is a very strong, though not unbreakable, curse

it’s amazing.

[boldfresh]

-25 overall in sui - ouch.

[boldfresh]

defender continues to remain charmed - except for burma…  :|

[gamerman01]

Burma was about 20 IPC’s better for defender than expected, so I don’t think should be excepted

[gamerman01]

I now ask that we stop talking dice, at least for awhile.  It is likely to quickly devolve into 2 different assessments of who is luckier

[boldfresh]

Oh I didn’t even realize I never ran the numbers.    :-)

I have perceived the defender to generally be coming out better though.

[boldfresh]

looking at map this morning i realize i undid the walkin to eastern persia in noncom…  i redid it several times.  eastern persia should have a mech.

[boldfresh]

@Gamerman01:

He will probably top it in his attack of poland…  :lol:  1 in 20000 immediately followed by 1 in 50000

OK, cool, thanks

[boldfresh]

Please let me know if you have any problem with the noncom edit.  There were convoy dice rolled so you can disallow.

[gamerman01]

Late noncom into East Persia is fine with me
