@Adam514:

Always indecisive on the position of the 115 sub  :wink:.

Yep, German Marine is getting a bid mad being caught in the Baltic sea:)

I was curious about my perception about defending rolls and made an analysis.

• I ignored G1 (Just too lazy, France was bad even on the ground, Yugo was good)
• I counted all defending 2s. Ignored 3s and 1s for simplification
• I did not consider the effects on poor attack rolls, so I just counted how well Axis and Allied units defended when they could roll.

The result is:

• Axis scored 29 hits and missed 66 times which equals 30.5% accuracy.
• Allies scored 49 hits and missed 76 times which equals 39.2% accuracy.

This comes with a 6/16 AA for Allies and 0/3 AA for Axis.

I did of course ignore the 1s and 3s at this point. I scored some nice sub hits at the beginning and your cruiser whiffed against the air strike in 96
We both had our moments in terms of more or less bad disasters.
I got very lucky at Celebs and Iraq. Recent 95 went well for me
I had disasters in 55 J4 and 46 J9.

In a nutshell I would say that if dice would have been average, there would be a difference of 10 ground units on the map, plus Germans had +1 bomber + 1 fig and Italians would have +1 bomber.

On the given map those units matter of course less compared to the changed dynamics those units would have caused if being on the board earlier.

So in a nutshell I am still not happy how the dice went in this game overall. I don’t claim the dice blew me up or so but I think the overall position would have been more in favor to the Axis if the dice would have gone average to this point.

p.s.: I forgot the German bomber at Tokyo, I hope you don’t mind if I relocate to Phil prior to Japans turn.

[Adam514]

Yeah you can edit the German bomber.

Being lucky isn’t only about dice, it’s about dice at the right moments. For example, I knew Celebes was a very important battle that if won would have changed the dynamic in the Pacific which is why I sent a lot against it, but it failed. Same thing with Iraq. I’ve certainly had the better dice this game, but that’s not the only thing that matters and it may not even be the most important thing when measuring luck difference.
