Today i played overlord and my opponent got 3 orders out of 12 possible , on the counterattack i got 9 orders and continued on to win Dieppe as allies.
TFH can be heaven or hell.

| tank commander wrote on Sat, 04 December 2010 14:41 | I played a 20 turn Saverne Gap scenario as the Allies which I lost 4 (17 figs) to 5 ( 34 figs).
My German opponent played four TFHs - yes four(and no Allied COUNTERATTACK in sight)!!! Not only that, of the TFH 16 rolls, he got 8 Inf rolls, 2 tank rolls and two star rolls - a total of 13 orders
The topper is on the turn before he played his 4th TFH, I had a chance to win. I targeted a 1 fig infantry with 2 shots - whiff.
In my nearly 800 games I cannot recall that ever happening to me.
In our rematch of the same scenario, I as the Germans drew TFH -- thinking turnabout is fair play my 4 rolls got to order a single panzer

Was this online or on the board?

I've had equally useless rolls while playing real games.... But I've played a lot more Online games in a much shorter period of time so I remember the bad TFH rolls from the online game more easily.
I do remember rolling 3 Flags, 2 Grenades and 1 Tank in one battle. I would have been able to order a tank unit...except that my wife had just eliminated my last Armor unit the turn before! She loved that!!

I rolled 5 INF and 1 ARM on TFH during Arnheim versus Brummbar online, but those 6 attacks gave me about 2% hits

I saw my opponent play a TFH, he get 6 Command Cards but rolled 7 dice(online, bug)!! 3 stars, 2 infantries, 1 flag and grenede. Thanks to the good luck, when he smashed out my tank with rolling 3 grenedes, other rolls all get missed.

I hope you Reported that bug! I had the same thing happen to me, actually and I reported it...but DoW needs to know that this wasn't an isolated event and they need to kno which battles are affected by this bug.

Achivement: "Poor Guy"-You have rolled 30 dices and hit nothing!
That's embarrassed but really hard to get, I think
