@Karl7

Here is the dispute:

I as Japan moved to attack Queensland in important battle to take Sydney.
There was a scram option of 1 ftr to block bombard of 2 bbs
I assumed scram option was futile, and that holding on to ftr improved defenders odds
the battle calc supports No. 3. Without scram my chance of victory was around 40-45% give or take. With scram option my chances increased to around 50%+.
I did the battle without scram and got a substantially above odds result.
Allies object and want reroll of entire battle based on their right to scram, even if it hurt their defense.
I contend this is opportunism to overturn favorable battle and instead they should get 3 rolls at 4 representing the extra fighter they would have had if they scrambled (i.e. they have 2 extra units not hit by my 2bb bombard minus one for scram – battle lasted 3 rounds).
League rules say:

8 - Allowed Assumptions during gameplay - The purpose of assumptions is to reduce the number of game stoppages for opponent decisions (scrambling, casualty choice, intercepting, submerging, kamikazes). Because you are assuming a decision for your opponent, the opponent must always be given the benefit of the doubt, and moderators will always decide in this manner.

8a - Scrambling/intercept/submerge/kamikaze assumptions - When you make an assumption, you are accepting the risk that your opponent will disagree after seeing your turn. If your opponent takes issue with an assumption, you should come to an agreement about how to handle it. If you don’t agree, then the defender can require that the entire combat phase be re-rolled from the beginning. Or, you may seek a moderator ruling.

So I am seeking a moderator ruling.

10 Ruling is do I reroll or do they get 3 rolls at 4.

My strongest argument is that the scram hurt their chances so I could reasonably assume they wouldn’t scram and we should try to preserve existing rolls.
Their strongest argument is they intended to scram anyway (I guess not knowing it hurt them) and have an absolute right to, even if it requires overturning existing dice.

Canuck12

Our argument is really simple:

8a - Scrambling/intercept/submerge/kamikaze assumptions - When you make an assumption, you are accepting the risk that your opponent will disagree after seeing your turn. If your opponent takes issue with an assumption, you should come to an agreement about how to handle it. If you don’t agree, then the defender can require that the entire combat phase be re-rolled from the beginning. Or, you may seek a moderator ruling.

It would have been very easy for Karl7 to ask for scramble orders. He chose not to and assumed the risk as written above.

All we ask for is direct application of the rules. The defender has the right to scramble. If the attacker ignores this right, the defender has the right to require a re-roll of the combat phase. Karl knew this full-well when he chose to ignore our scramble option.

Karl7

@Canuck12

in rebuttal I note 8a allows for an appeal to a moderator over the absolute right of a defender to unwind an attack to give a scram order

Gargantua

@Canuck12

There are a few other quite critical components that have been glossed over here

#1. We are all in a specific whatsapp chat dedicated to this game and it’s very easy to ask for scramble orders or clarifications, we do it all the time, and responses usually coming within a matter of minutes if not immediately.

Karl points out he knows this is an important battle. Why then are the allied options skipped over?

#2. We provided evidence of our private discussions last night (Txt msgs) that we intended to scramble 1 fgt if he went all in at Queensland, Our quick calculator reviews led us to believe this was the better choice.

#3. This game became edgy quite early on, and became a “no mistakes” death match. The allies backed off this poor gamesmanship because it takes away from the fun of the game, and we made multiple concessions to support the axis, several of which we still suffer from and have led to this latest battle.

We were also given an “I owe you one” a few turns ago. And in good faith asked for this battle to be redone based on our wishes, Our good faith has been met with presumptious discontent.

#4. Karl rerolled the battle and still won. And we accept that outcome. Yet he is still trying to wheel his way to a greedier and frankly unreasonable outcome.

#5. If the roles were reversed we would be treated with the same stiff response or worse.

#6. Throughout the game many “assumptions” have been made, several of which “post dice” have put the defending party at a disadvantage.

A prime case being an Italian attack on a british fleet, to which we planned to scramble, and would have resulted in an Italian rout, but we were again denied this choice, and the parties were forced to agree to an amicable withdrawl of the fight.

#7. These tense moments let us clarify that we need to have agreement before critical battles. And again we were denied.

That is why only a reroll will suffice in this matter. And it has happend, and the axis still achieve their objective, and we are happy to proceed, except for the indignance of the axis who refuse to allow us

@Karl7

Also… I feel it’s important again to say, there would be no legal battle, no pages long posts, no need for moderation or comment, if Karl has just texted or posted.

“Battle of Sydney! Do you guys scram or take the bombard/?”

Simple

And I again reiterate and believe this was a deliberately played hand, to give a hopeless game one last chance.

Joel is correct, I deliberately did not scram them or ask because it was the obvious worse option.

For the record, the only dispute here is if the moderator finds good reason to override the defending players redo option. Here the good reason is that it was the worse option and made no sense.

@Karl7 !

Agree or disagree with our decision, if was ours, and attached is the proof of our intent and plan!

Adam514

I have been asked by Karl to take a look at the situation and I’ll give my thoughts.

Obviously a lot of your chat was on whatsapp, so my question is why did Karl reroll the battle if he didn’t want to use the reroll outcome?
As the rules say, assumptions leave the defender with the option to ask for rerolls, as it should be. However in this case, both parties seem to agree that not scrambling was the right move, so the attacker made the best choice for the defenders (despite the defenders’ intentions). In other words, with the same amount of luck in that battle, if the defenders had scrambled it could only have gone worse for the defenders.

Conclusion: only looking at this situation and not the rest of the game for favors and sportsmanship, the defenders have the right to call for a reroll, but it would be unsportsmanlike to ask for the reroll given that the battle was already fought to the best of the defenders’ ability in terms of scramble decisions. I wouldn’t rematch someone who would ask for a reroll for worse odds in a battle. The defenders should imagine that had they scrambled, it could only have gone worse.

Gargantua

@Adam514

With respect did you even look at my text message images or comments?

At no time did I agree or believe my odds were better with no scramble and allowing bombards… so I’m not sure why that’s part of the conclusion?

I have battle calc results showing the opposite… but likely because it was such a swingy battle.

I’m not sure how to take this conclusion.

Canuck12

Why don’t the rules just say that the scramble is not the defender’s choice and is only based on what the attacker thinks is best based on the battle calc?

That’s what happened here. Shall we run all games like that moving forward?

This ruling sets an unworkable precedent.

Gargantua

Thanks for trying Adam lol…

Adam514

Read what I said, I ruled in the defenders’ favor. If you truly think scrambling is the best move for the defenders, you don’t have to consider it unsportsmanlike either.

Another question I have is why didn’t the cruisers bombard as well? If everything were to bombard then scrambling would have been the better move, that may be wehre the differing calc results come from.
