That Feeling When your best roll was still lower then their worst.

Also, did not realise I could target bombing runs.  I thought they just whacked a random building.

How else would a bombing run work? Dropping a bunch of explosives from way up in the sky is never gonna hit anything after all :p

Bomb the fortifications (plus AA battery, if possible) in 42 using airfields in 20 and 38.

Move 1 army each from 38, 21 & 22 and 2 armies from 20 to 39.
Move 1 army each from 20 & 19 and 2 armies from 14 to 42 (all via 20).
Move 1 army from 10 to 20.
Move 1 fleet each from 24 and 22 to the Black Sea.

Rebuild whatever is destroyed in 39, if possible.
Construct acadamies in 11, 12, 22 & 24.

Show me your worst  8)
Done.

Oh, and time for another few nitpicks. By my reckoning, I should have one army in 10, and two each in 20 and 39. The fortifications in 39 should probably have also been repaired. Also, how did Romania get the +4 bonus there? Do the HQ and capital bonii stack?

Finally, I've just noticed that 36 has a naval base despite being land-locked. Is this intentional or a hangover from a previous map?

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Armies fixed, and so is the mountainous Serbian port facility '<.

Cannot do super-repairs in conquered lands, tho. And yes, this quirky HQ+Capital bonus do stack (this isn't perfectly balanced game system, ya know).

Wait - how did I get no bonuses to my attack? I attacked from the capitol, had an adjacent airfield, and had three more soldiers than they did.  I should have gotten +3 to my rolls, shouldn't I?

Edit: even if it didnt matter for the first three battles, then the fourth one should have gotten at least the +1 from the adjacent airfield, winning the battle.

They have AA Batteries, nullyfying your Airfield bonus.

Your soldiers were stationed in North Germany, so no HQ/Capital bonus.

And you had only 3, not 4 soldiers more than Germany.

Then, separately, the ones from Denmark attacked, gaining +1 from Capital bonus.

All checks out on my side v;

That's disappointing, but okay:

The ones attacking from the capitol didn't have the +1 added in.  It was (6 vs 3+3), not (6+1 vs 3+3). Shouldn't I still have won?
