13L G40 Gargantua v. Gamerman01, sides and tech TBD

[gamerman01]

Hitting 110 is over-rated

[Gargantua]

A conservative game approach should lend to better dice.

Looking forward to this fight.

Going to be a few hours, before I am able to post.  Looking forward to preparing my counter offensive.

[gamerman01]

No rush

I too am looking forward to the game playing out

That’s some punch, right there.

You need to make the axis work for their chance to win, and you need to get the Germans paying piece for piece early if you want to survive.

No matter which side you are playing, half of the battles on the eastern front are on YOUR turn.  That your chance to keep the economics even, often.
