with moscow providing no resistance there is truly less than no hope.

[boldfresh]

J dau seems to be confused about my dice comments so in case you are as well here is my clarification. I am NOT saying that I am losing this game because I am getting diced. What I am saying is that the reason I continued is because there was plenty of dice to be rolled and if I happen to get a lucky outcome, such as what you got in game 1 which changed the entire course of the game, I could have still made it competitive.what I am saying is that the dice for the axis have not ever resulted in disaster. the reason I was continuing was in hopes of a dice disaster for the axis. Giving you 80 percent on Moscow when I didn’t need to do so was in hopes have you taking the battle and getting an unlucky roll. I thought all this stuff was pretty obvious but J dau doesn’t see it that way.

[JuanSpain]

I understand and I agree with you, dice disasters gave me second life in game 1, then the Japan strategy was nice I think. Here, you had less concentration, I was playing very long term and and with very rarelly opposed dice, so from a certain point in time, the only hope was luck in dice, however, I made a serious mistake that you authorised correcting in NCM and this proves once again that you are a gentleman.
If you don´t make the play-offs this year, I would be very happy to have your advice in strategy in my games.
