14L G40 JuanSpain (+18) vs Gamerman01 (x) game 2

[JuanSpain]

@Gamerman01:

You can take Russian infantry off instead of Chinese if you want - your prerogative

All of my Japan turns except #4 had poor dice  :-P

J1 You hit 4/4 in Yunnan round 1
J2 Sze airstrike was a little poorer than average, but not terrible
J3 You double hit with inf in Malaya to down a tac, and then AGAIN you double hit with inf in Hong Kong to down another tac
J5 After 2 rounds in Kansu, you have upper 10% result of 8 men left, and also got upper 10% of results on your defense, the chance of wiping all my ground units in 2 rounds

I’m not intending to make a case, just stating an interesting fact.  To be fair, your Russian dice haven’t been too good - dice overall have been reasonable I think for the game

Looking forward to seeing your next move - this has been a fun game

At this point in time, my only chance to get closed to challenging you, is with better dice than you. I am happy it is fun for you! For me it is fun and an opportunity to learn. I also see you are moving fast these days, that is great. My move goes next.

[gamerman01]

Moving fast against you, and not at all on my other one  :-P
I need 8 games completed to qualify for the league playoff

I’ll be watching if you need a 91 scramble decision

Awaiting new scramble order Sir

[gamerman01]

I’m back - I messed up the timing for your 4 hour window.  Give me a minute and I’ll have your decision.

[JuanSpain]

No problem, we should not need much to decide a winner.

[gamerman01]

@JuanSpain:

I see… yes, the dice swing hard back the other way immediately after Kansu… but this one was much more important for both of us…

Yes, I’ll scramble them all again, with gratefulness that I have all these bonus units in 91 and Gibraltar  :-P

[gamerman01]

And thank you again, for your excellent sportsmanship in all of this.

[gamerman01]

No change to my order of loss, thanks
