      So what I would suggest is redo your Allied turn because what happened wouldn't even be possible - and also because I am curious if the numbers tell the truth 😀

        USA5.tsvg my bad, I did this recently in my game with Theo but he didn't retake the Netherlands so you are correct. The transport edit was just bc I forgot to move it during the Russian turn and I was trying to make sure there was no error in combat.

        Here is what we are looking for - fire away:USA5.tsvg

          OK now I am going to try to maximize the final odds for a German win xD

          Allies defend Moscow against G6 attack and attack Berlin on Round 6 (odds for German win)
          Moscow: 39.47%
          Berlin: ~30%
          Final odds: 11.8%

          +1 tank Berlin / -1 tank Moscow
          Moscow: 31.25%
          Berlin: ~70%
          Final odds: ~20% (21.9%)

          +2 tanks Berlin / -2 tanks Moscow
          Moscow 22%
          Berlin ~85%
          Final odds: ~20% (18.7%)

          BTW you could have purchased an artillery instead of an infantry on the UK turn. Since you can load two artillery on a transport in this game, you could have had some extra combat factors, so that's why the first calculation in this post is different from the one a couple posts earlier, in that one I assumed you would buy 6 art and 4 inf.

          In any case, it looks like +1 tank Berlin -1 tank Moscow is the best strategy. Let's see if I am lucky and can get 1 out of 5... 🙂

              This is most likely a GG, the Allies can finish the job 🙂

                @victoryfirst do you have the final numbers for how well or bad the Germans did in this game? If not, I will do it - I'd hate to overcorrect. This seemed like a pretty good Allied win and so I want to make sure the dice show Germany at something like.... minus -7 ish..

                  Well I have this:

                  After Allied4
                  Eastern Front: -32.5 / -21
                  Atlantic/WA: -8.33 / +3
                  Africa/Med: -5.06 / -14
                  Total: -45.89 / -32

                  I have not calculated the net pieces, however I can still do that if you want.

                        USA6.tsvg I think Germans concede? Is there anyway to get out of that?

                        As for numbers, if you could crunch the first two turns only (for piece count). I can do it but I'm so strapped for time - If you can do it, great but dont worry about it if youre short on time. Lets get the next game going (two inf malta, two inf Ukraine). GG! THANK YOU

                          Good Game, at this point the Germans are just confined to the defense of Berlin and with 4,5 times the income and 4 times the TUV, the Allies will bring this one home. As they should!

                          I am definitely not short on time. I'll crunch the numbers for the first two turns and let you know in a minute.
