[gamerman01]

Awesome - I lose TWO infantry in TrJ - a 0.27% chance.  But I shouldn’t complain because maybe you try to attack TrJ now and it goes bad for you - hard to say.

3 hits in Z99 - what do you lose?
Was too apathetic to roll it on the forum - my sub missed anyway

[gamerman01]

Also, let me know now if you have an issue with me choosing your sub as the loss to the Americans.  I’m pretty sure that was your best option, not knowing that you would hit 4/4 in return at the time

[bmnielsen]

Yeah, sub is fine. Take the destroyer and carrier.

@Gamerman01:

Really?  I’m not liking A&A lately

OK, I said this after taking 4/4 in 99 and losing the US bomber in the first round, but I complained too early…  The follow up with the UK went swimmingly, so it turned out fair enough altogether I think…

Beware attacking TrJ!  :wink:

[bmnielsen]

Well, it was a close one…

[gamerman01]

Scramble 1 fighter vs 2 bombers in West Germany?

[bmnielsen]

No thanks

[gamerman01]

Your AA is 4/14 on SBR’s so far, nearly double the average rate
To add to the injury, almost all of my damage rolls have been 1,2, or 3

Time for a double miss, and some double sixes to get me closer to average  :-P

[gamerman01]

Well I’m happy about the double miss, but not so happy about the 1 and 2 I rolled for damage

[gamerman01]

Now your AA is 4/16, which is “only” 25%  :x
