98% chance to win France my arse

[666]

have you ever gotten smoked like that in france as germany and still beaten a tier 1 player?

[boldfresh]

been there a few times.  won 1 of them.

i would prefer to keep the british artillery over the french - will that change your noncom at all?

[boldfresh]

not a tier 1 but i did beat trajan who was tier 1 at the time.

[boldfresh]

he ended the season tier 2 at 2.83 ppg.

[boldfresh]

quick, do japan and you’ll feel better.  the thing about axis is you can win on either side of the map.

[boldfresh]

oops forgot to do the edit in france on this map.

[boldfresh]

i do not do s france anymore because of this possibility.  course that’s no guarantee you would have won in france even with the extra units the way you were rolling.

@Boldfresh:

i didn’t used to either but I see an advantage to taking it and without those 3 G units you still have 98% to take france…it’s hard to argue against it w/the 98%.

and the problem w/winning as JPN now is that russia and america can pay a lot more attention to japan……
the real shame is we haven’t played a game that didn’t have whacked T1 dice yet….I think.

I don’t believe you have really beaten me yet…
