also add one more no combat, combat move, 1 transport from z25 takes 1 infantry and 1 mech to z3 and unloads. I didn’t want to reload and redo the turn but let me know if that’s a problem.

how I even can win any games is beyond me, but this is the final straw. I will never play without low luck using marti again. how people who can’t see marti spits out sequences instead of truly random numbers is beyond me.

ok going to give you this game. getting tired of this dice. if anzac would have been able to finish off your battleships then I would might have continued. you’ve been hitting at twice the average clip and winning big battles after big battles decisively due to it. that finland battle could have gone horribly for you giving what I attacked with but somehow you hit almost every single time and even almost won that battle!

[Ghostglider]

Thank you for a good game - and thank you for your patience during my long break.
I think you had the upper hand and therefore I had to set up risky battles and hope for the best. This this it worked out to my advantage.

If you want a rematch - maybe in LL, please let me know.
