G40 Gamerman01(x) v CmdrJennifer, Tech tokens, warm-up game

Commander Jennifer reporting - back in action after an unexcused absence

She missed playing A&A with me, so asked for a “fun game”.  Along with it, she kind of promised a league game after this one  :-)

This game is no bid, using tech tokens a la AA50

Now that sounds fun to me!

Need scramble orders for 111 and 110 please

And no, this is not the standard opening and I’ve never done it this way before, but I think it’s a good one.

You know how hard it was for me to not buy a token?  Really wanted that sub.

Game on, then!!

Welcome back to non-reality!

The league needs you - if you go back through the league discussion thread you will find some questions, including about the playoff.

You can download my rankings spreadsheet if you haven’t already, to see how things are going.

167 games have been completed already.

@Cmdr:

Wow, a lot of games compared to last year!  We had, what, 40ish?  Including playoffs!

Exactly.  Things exploded beyond everyone’s wildest dreams right around the turn of the league year last fall, what with 2nd edition finally getting finalized.  We’re still getting new players.  Hobo came back recently, for example.
