      This might be late, but I feel like I could contribute.

      If you don’t want to reroll the question is simple. The question is: “Which result was rolled by which unit?”. There are several ways of doing this I will first describe the simple and then the longer (Which will give the same result).

      Simple: Since most of the result where misses, they are not interesting, the only question is where to assing the 3. There is 1 in 4 units that could have been the unit rolling a 3, terefore it is 1 in 4 chance that unit was the artillery.

      Longer:
      In basic uniform probability, we first start with the assumption that every result is equally likely. Every string of lottery numbers have the same odds. all we have to do then is to count the number of outcomes we like, and compare that to the number of possible outcomes when assigning the results. I will call your units I1, I2, I3 and A. There will be 24 ways of assinging the dies, and 6 of them will assign the 3 to the art. The ways of assigning them are:

      A: 3 I1: 6 I2:8 I3:9  = 1 Hit
      A: 3 I1: 6 I2:9 I3:8  = 1 Hit
      A: 3 I1: 8 I2:6 I3:9  = 1 Hit
      A: 3 I1: 8 I2:9 I3:6  = 1 Hit
      A: 3 I1: 9 I2:6 I3:8  = 1 Hit
      A: 3 I1: 9 I2:8 I3:6  = 1 Hit

      A: 6 I1: 3 I2:8 I3:9  = 0 Hit
      A: 6 I1: 3 I2:9 I3:8  = 0 Hit
      A: 6 I1: 8 I2:3 I3:9  = 0 Hit
      A: 6 I1: 8 I2:9 I3:3  = 0 Hit
      A: 6 I1: 9 I2:3 I3:8  = 0 Hit
      A: 6 I1: 9 I2:8 I3:3  = 0 Hit

      A: 8 I1: 3 I2:6 I3:9  = 0 Hit
      A: 8 I1: 3 I2:9 I3:6  = 0 Hit
      A: 8 I1: 6 I2:3 I3:9  = 0 Hit
      A: 8 I1: 6 I2:9 I3:3  = 0 Hit
      A: 8 I1: 9 I2:3 I3:6  = 0 Hit
      A: 8 I1: 9 I2:6 I3:3  = 0 Hit

      A: 9 I1: 3 I2:6 I3:8  = 0 Hit
      A: 9 I1: 3 I2:8 I3:6  = 0 Hit
      A: 9 I1: 6 I2:8 I3:9  = 0 Hit
      A: 9 I1: 6 I2:9 I3:8  = 0 Hit
      A: 9 I1: 8 I2:6 I3:3  = 0 Hit
      A: 9 I1: 8 I2:3 I3:6  = 0 Hit

      In total. That is 6 possible hits, of 24 possible scenarios. Which is 1 in 4.

      It’s because the BJs didn’t win, the Rangers gave up the game.  Stupid Andrus.

      j/k  Rangers had no right to be where they were considering last season and spring training.  I’m looking forward to next year when they make Bautista eat his bat.

      @wheatbeer:

      @Linkon:

      I would not like to tell these future grandchildren that my generation allowed a bunch of communist to chaotically divide yet another country as they took over.  That would be a sorry excuse for them not growing up here in the USA.

      Can you explain what these comments have to do with the Confederate flag?

      The division of the USA is a grave matter. 
      Painful for the citizens in the 1860’s.

      Painful for the free world in the 2010’s.

      The former confederate flag is but one aspect of how the harmony of our union, is getting disrupted.  A house divided, can soon crumble.

      I would disagree. They are probably second best, if we are talking strictly from-the-movies uniforms. Snow or Scout troopers may top them.

      aequitas-et-veritasA

      My answer is NO!
      It was not neccessary, but the people want it!
      All the problems could have been solved, but the people stirred it up so that another war was uninevitable.
      The Germans never had a need for more Lebensraum, that was A.H’s dream.
      The russians never had a need of spreading communism, but Stalin felt the need for it.
      The americans never wanted a war but Rosewelt thought it would be better for America to expand the outerim territorys.
      Everybody else was just soaked in in this filthy war and joined a side as nation they thought would win.
      Are you really hot for war?
      Do you think a war today like ww2 would solve all the issues?
      Is a war neccessary?

      No…

      @Gargantua:

      So if it doesn’t use a first strike ability… it can’t be hit?  wtf.

      Pretty Much, it makes sense for game balance, but not so much for realism.

      Planes never need to travel over Pripet to save movement points, so that rule is not needed.

      Did anyone else experience this?

      From cell phones, to landline-internet, half of the internet was down for about an hour for me and others in BC.  Didn’t matter if you were telus or Shaw or whatever - it was bizarre.

      Google.ca - worked perfect , Google.com nothing… link dead

      cbc.ca - working fast,  Cnn.com - not working,

      A&A.org - up and running, NHL.com - no chance

      The list goes on and on.

      Wondering if anyone else was effected?  Around 6:30pm to 7:30pm PST.
