Sorry guys, I do have a life. 

I don’t really have time to play on here as often as I’ve done in the past. Having said that, expect Italy tonight.

@Gargantua:

I plan to hit that sea zone.

You could confirm it now and save both parties time.

It’s fairly obvious you will scramble.  And your ool is basically selected for you, whether the bomber or the sub hits.

The OOL is not quite black and white, if my dd dies the trn is dead if you choose to lose the bmb instead. Scramble if you send both the ss/bmb, but ask for OOL.

Ask for scramble/ool if you hit my transport/dd.

@Karl7:

JAPAN?

@DutchmanD:

Gents, I am traveling with my family, so getting some quality minutes to look over the map is rough, and obviously I need more than a few minutes given the situation as it is.  So, I asked Seth to hold off for a bit so we can get on the same page.

Sooo . . . . just a reminder to those impatient. He’s still busy and still traveling.  :roll:@Karl7:

JAPAN?

considering it’s Rd6, those French deprived the axis of a lot more than just 9 ipcs in income.

That Frenchie is FINALLY dead and he went out taking another guy with him. The 2 original French dudes in Normandy killed 3 infantry, 3mech, and an aa gun whilst taking 2 territories and defending in 2 other battles. Now that that mess is sorted out, Yugo is next on my list. Maybe just maybe I might have a shot still in Europe now that the French are no more on continental Europe. Call me crazy, but the people rejoiced!

Map sent for review, awaiting my partner’s thoughts. 

@Gargantua:

Didn’t get so lucky in Anglo Egypt though.  VERY lucky for you!

And here we see the scewed view the results of the dice battles have forced on us that a failed battle with low odds for the attacker is considered a big success for the defender.

Well, that went about as well as could be expected . . . bring it French dude in Normandy!

@Gargantua:

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.

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.

Dang, I should’ve stuck with the 2 inf . . .  :oops:

@Karl7:

ha ha…… we got totally diced! 

You’re one to talk about getting diced after ALL the battles that have gone your way in the European theater.
