Sorry for my recent slow pace. Still trying to recover from the unbelievable dice. Have been super busy irl and have only been moving in my game with adam… where the dice don’t hate me quite as much. :lol:

No problem man, come on, it is the weekend, let´s rock&roll

No problem man, come on, it is the weekend, let´s rock&roll
I’m not sure you would believe it but my weekends are even more busy than my weekdays but maybe you don’t have kids
-
Yes I believe you, I don´t have kids but even in that case many weekends are very busy for me too, but not this one, jeje.
Take the time you need.
Cheers

i’ve been doing some thinking about my move - but boy, this is a tough one - it’s the first one i intend to make other than my moves against adam, who is also catching some wicked dice against me… :-o
-
Yes, Japan has moved fast after destroying Pearl, now it is obvious what the chance I was reffering to was. I think it was an unnecessary mistake allowing that +93 (which was average I think), it is hard to build a navy from scratch and that gives a lot of time in Europe for Japan before starting loosing money.
Then the 2 dice disasters compensated your better initial strategy + my initial below average attacks in med vs UK that you utilized amazingly well. I was 99,99% dead, now still loosing but some real chances to win this one.
And I also like the way I played Spain… :-D
-
I will admit I didn’t want the game to end and the dice complied. I love a challenge and now I have one.
-
we do have a problem - it appears the mongolians cannot ever become pro axis unless the soviet union directly attacks them. see page 39 of the pacific rulebook.
Quoting - it says “Due to their mutual border conflict with Japan in 1939, the Soviet Union and Mongolia have a sspecial relationship. The Mongolian territories (Olgiy, Dzavhan, Tsagaan-Olom, Central Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar, and Buyant-Uhaa) will never become pro-Axis unless one or more of them is attacked by the Soviet Union.”
i guess that probably changed a few things. also you did another illegal move when you blitzed through dzavhan in your edit on Round 8 with germany. even if you could activate the mongolian territories, it would not be legal to blitz through one and activate another in one turn. overall it’s not a huge deal but you need to give back some infantry and put mongolia back to its original state. since i’m so busy at the moment, this is good so now you have something to do rather than wait for my turn! once you have decided how you want to handle let me know - i’m getting about ready to resume this game (as you can tell since i’m pulling out the rules to check this now that i’m in trouble).
-
Ok, I think you are right, I will correct it, getting those infantry back to Mongolia and moving alternatively the troops that conquered those territories instead of conquering them.

i don’t even know what to say about these dice anymore. didn’t kill a single unit in either normandy or burma and lost both units in both places. didn’t kill a single unit in saudi while losing two inf (at least the bomber didn’t get shot down).
RIDICULOUS - these dice gotta STOP
-
I am very sorry you are loosing because of dice Bold, it happened to me sometimes last year when I played so many games, and I know it is very very annoying. Don´t permit this situation making you upset, this game is for fun!! and you will have revenge if you wish when we finish.
My partner and I have had very consistent bad luck in XDAP in Europe during all the game, 4 bombers killed in example by 2 AA in the last round, with a total of 6 bombers killed instead of 1 (average) in that round, so +60 for them in just one round, but all of them mean at least +10/+20 because of dice, fortunatelly our opponents are not playing Smart and we are still winning.
XDAP round 1 is the only game this year in which I am having very bad luck, and yours is the only one in which I am having very good luck, the rest have been more or less on average. Which is also good luck… because you are the strongest opponent, and XDAP ones are the weakest so far.
