Classic 2nd edition, Avin (Allies) vs AcesWild (Axis), no bid

Avin

Sure that’s fine.

As a side note, I was curious if you would go after the transports with your bomber, and I’m not surprised you did given a comment you made in one of your videos that I recently saw. I find it interesting that you seem to be very conservative about larger battles that you engage in, but when one or two units are involved you are willing to play much riskier. I’m the opposite way; I’d almost never got after 2 transports with a lone bomber (because you have >50% odds to lose the bomber) but will more readily try a larger battle that is likely to go on for multiple rounds, because if the first round isn’t in my favor I can easily retreat and cut my losses.

I think the first turn should be played conservative if you are the axis. After that, I believe it is case by case.

Also, greater than 50%? That’s not what I got with my math. How did you come up with that?

@AcesWild5049

Consider first a bomber versus 1 transport. 1/6 chance the transport gets a hit regardless of whether the bomber does or not. If the transport does not get a hit (5/6), then the bomber gets a hit with 2/3 odds, so the conditional probability there would be 10/18ths chance that the battle ends immediately with the bomber surviving. Rather than summing the infinite series for each subsequent round you can just add the probabilities for the battle ending (1/6 + 10/18 = 13/18) and divide both of the above by the total: so in other words, 10/13ths chance for the bomber to win, and 3/13ths chance for the bomber to die (whether the transport wins or not; it’s of course 2/13ths for the transport to die and 1/13ths for the transport to survive). So there’s a slightly lower than 1/4 chance for the bomber to die against a transport.

Then back to the two transport s, on the first round there’s a (5/6)^2 =25/36 chance of both missing, so there’s then an 11/36 (or 33/108) chance of either hitting, which would end the battle regardless of whether the bomber hits or not. If the transports miss and the bomber hits (25/36*2/3=50/108) then that reduces to the previous scenario. And then the remainder would be the case where both misses, so like above let’s skip summing the series: so 33/83 chance for the transports to hit, 50/83 chance for the bomber to hit. In the latter case, given the previous result we know that there’s still a bit less than 1/4 chance for the bomber to die, so let’s say 12/83. That gives the total probability for the bomber to die as 43/83, which is slightly greater than 1/2.

This math seems to check out if you use the TripleA battle calculator: if you enter 1 bomber versus 2 transports, it says the average attacker units left is 0.45 or so (varying depending on random results).

which ship do you prefer to take the hit on?

@AcesWild5049 Sub please. I’ll take the chance to get a hit on the bomber again on this theater too. ;)

can you edit off two inf from Germany and add to S Europe. please thanks and srry bout that

Avin

Will do. I always feel like I have to triple check what I’m doing with every action for these, because I’m paranoid that I’ll send out the save before remembering one unit off on the opposite end of the map as the rest of my troops. Particularly with the UK!

If you for some reason decide to attack Karelia with all five German fighters, take the UK bomber as a casualty first, then the American bomber, then the Russian troops. If you attack it with less than five fighters, ask me for casualties then but I doubt you would do that.

I don’t know why I landed that lone British fighter in Russia instead of Karelia given that I knew I would be evacuating most of the troops from Karelia into EEU when I took UK’s last turn but it’s been almost a whole cycle so I don’t mind letting it stand and not asking for a move there.

Avin

Ignore that; I forgot that not all your fighters can even reach it without hitting AA fire, so it’s probably not even an issue.
