You’re one to talk about getting diced after ALL the battles that have gone your way in the European theater.
-
Oh Trans Jordan went our way?
Sea Zone 97 Defense went our way?
Anglo Egypt Went our way?
Please. It’s back and forth. And where we’ve built an edge in Europe with dice history, the axis have built an edge with dice history in the pacific.
Moot complaint.

Really? Hmm… well, this one would have been huge if we had done better.
We didn’t even get a hit with the bomber! Grrrrr… :lol:

Moot complaint.
If you’re going to pick battles to show how lucky I’ve gotten in Europe, at least try picking some better examples.
Go back and check the odds and average results on those battles por favor. On average I should’ve lost an extra air off the sz97 battle. Not a huge difference from the expected outcome. That was equaled out in the the TrJ battle when I lost an extra air unit above the average result. I brought a ton of air into both battles so I had numbers as well as punch in both battles. So it shouldn’t be too surprising that that overwhelming force was able to knock out the defenders in 1 round in both those battles.
As for Egy, I’m not sure if you’re talking this most recent battle or not. If you are, well that’s one battle that really skewed in my favor over the expected outcome and only my shortsighted choice of a bomber kept the losses about equal.
But sure, conveniently forget that UK took zero losses on UK1 against both German and Italian targets. Let’s forget about how Yugo got 3/3 hits against the Italians or that the French killed 2inf, aa attacking into Holland with just the inf, art and then killed 2 more mech defending against a German attack with air support. Or the battle in Epl which pitted about equal forces against each other somehow cost Germany 8inf, aa to Russia’s 4 inf. Oh both sz110 and sz111 as well as Paris and sz93.
The Gibraltar stand was nice but just a 50/50 battle. And Sudan was not expected to actually be taken either. That’s it, everything else has been a wash or in the allied favor.
Italy is being or will be reviewed by my partner and I expect to post shortly.

wow, way to go France!
I didn’t pick up on that.
Ah, it’s fun the complaint about the dice. In risky battles like Egypt, you hope sooo much,…. and then POW! The dice kill you… that’s why I said what I said. 8-)
Hoped for the best, got the worst… :cry: :cry:

Hey - Egypt could have gone worse :p

Alright Karl, we’re almost into Round 4.
Let’s show em how Cyber Commando’s get it done.
