15L G40 Boldfresh (Allies+16) vs JuanSpain (Axis) REMATCH

[boldfresh]

i’m not using my LL reroll there, but maybe you will allow that battle in novo (91%) to succeed with an artillery remaining and give me the chance to modify my noncom.

[boldfresh]

remember when i said i should have asked for several low luck rerolls in exchange for letting you change your german noncom and save berlin?

[boldfresh]

you know what, just leave it as is. you still have a bit of an uphill battle so let’s see how it turns out.

[boldfresh]

ok well you rolled way up in persia so i’m using my LL reroll.

here we go

attacker - 15 inf, 3 art, 2 ftr, tac, 2 bom (punch of 42 so that is exactly 7 hits)

Rolls: 1@4; Total Hits: 11@4: (3)

[boldfresh]

i lose 9 inf, you lose 7 inf

round 2 attack - 6 inf, 3 art, 2 ftr, tac, 2 bom (punch of 33 so 5 hits with a remainder of 3)
rolling for the additional 3 punch to see if i score a 6th hit

[boldfresh]

so far it’s as bad as possible

defense - 2 mech, 6 tac, 4 ftr (punch of 38 so 6 hits with a remainder of 2)
rolling for the extra 2 punch to see if you score a 7th hit
Rolls: 1@2; Total Hits: 01@2: (4)
