L22 Pejon_88 (X) vs. Gamerman01 (A+15), BM4, game #2


  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Oh wow! No hits of 9 dice rolled in Ukraine :O

  • 2023 '22

    @pejon_88 And I rolled 4/5 1’s :O
    Sometimes you wonder if MARTI is rigged!


  • I don’t mind too much - when I roll real dice (which is rare) they are super crazy too.

    But I realized it’s worse than 1% -

    There was 1% chance that the Germans would lose nothing through 2 rounds

    AND
    only a 2.36% chance the Russians would lose 3 or more units through 2 rounds

    Very bad time, very bad place. I can’t be upset at all when the dice handed me game 1 so fast


  • Having a good-natured, friendly opponent is far more important than getting the dice you want

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Oh wow!

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Haha, yeah there should be a 25-50-25% for good/average/bad dice right, while is should definitely be 100-0% for nice/bad opponents :D

    @gamerman01 scramble SZ39?

    J4.tsvg


  • No.
    I’ll probably need them all to try and defend Russia

  • 2023 '22

    @gamerman01 Makes sense. Also tried to make it into a bad scramble opportunity for you of that.

    @pejon_88 *on top of that.

    Another great J round. Great defense in SZ6 though. Didn’t want to gamble damaging an AC on the des hit :O


  • OK, shaking off the demoralization and putting together a US4. I don’t think it’s time to make desperate attacks yet, but it may be soon.


  • C4 edit.tsvg

    NCM infantry from Kangsu to Tsi instead of to Sui
    infantry at Sui stays home


  • Japanese infantry hitting 4/7 on the mainland makes it hard!



  • I’m not sure if this game is magical, or just plain weird. Time will tell.
