Avoided disaster in 97 but actually got disaster in Ethopia, 95%ers are not save enough anymore to me. After losing 97% vs wheat recently now another blowout :(

Looks like this can become a misery quite quickly :-/

[boldfresh]

losing a 90+%er is usually misery.  just be glad you didn’t lose 97, which was only 93% and you had a TERRIBLE round 1!  :wink:

[boldfresh]

had a crash - had to reconstruct these dice - that’s the edits you see.  now i need to know if you will lose cruiser or destroyer in z93

[JDOW]

As discussed lose DD please.
