What are the odds? DG? Little help?

I don't care what the math is, but the chance of rolling x 10s (while mathematically described above) depends on who is rolling and what the desired result it.

It sometimes appears that probability is just a well educated guess, and that reality does indeed load the dice.

So this happened in the first play through of the new "monster-light" Normandy wargame from GMT.

It is a team game with me and Justin Rice (one of the playtesters, I think) against Habs and another friend of ours. I am playing the CW forces.

Here is the situation at the end of the June 6th, Sword beach and 6th Airborne sector.

6th Airborne mostly dropped well, and is formed up to defend Pegasus bridge. The Germans left one of the airborne battalions unscreened however, and it managed to sneak into the suburbs of Caen, hiopefully blocking the bridges across the Orne north of Caen to German traffic. Probably going to be a suicide mission, but I hope to gum things up a bit for the Germans.

Just wait till the 21st Pz and their odd tanks steamroll you!

I am hoping that they will have great fun trying to steamroll that poor Airborne battalion in the middle of the city.

Situation behind Gold and Juno beaches is interesting. Gold is pretty bottled up, but Juno is clear, and the Germans did not cover the road between bayeux and Juno beach, allowing the Canadians to send a regiment in behind the defenders at Gold beach, and siezing the important crossroads at Creully.
