Rolled way up huh?  Stunning.

[JuanSpain]

Yeah, 6 vs 6 hits, instead of 4 vs 6, not relevant in this case given the Japanese power coming for second round, the relevant was what your defense would do in this case I think. I applied max defense, of course change your selection if you prefer a different one.

Beyond ridiculous.  And to say it’s not relevant that you killed a ftr?  And that there isn’t a boat that can fire at your japs?

Whatever.  These dice are so ridiculous.  I know I’m the one that’s been talking about them but I’m do e talking about them until this one is over.  Let’s just play no more talk about the dice it only annoys me to see responses like this.

[JuanSpain]

15 Japan planes can hit 100, 2 more defenders is not relevant is what I mean, because I sacrified the German airforce to make that fleet clearly inferior to the Japanese and I would make it in any case (average hits, more, less).

Other combats provoked very important differences, like what happened in your 2 disasters, one at the sea in South France and another with russia, but not this, that is all I meant.

As I said, after those 2 dice disasters and your mistake in Pearl, war has changed significantly, those were absolutely relevant events for the course of this war, but nor this, it is all I meant. I am not saying dice have not been very relevant in the game, but after the last Japan move, things are complicated for Allies.

Of course you have the right to complaint on what you consider relevant dice, none, or just all.

I am sorry if my answer annoyed you, but I also have the right to say what I think.

[boldfresh]

I’m requesting no more dice talk going forward.  Just war.

thanks
