…I keep joking about it but I’m gonna end up having to concede soon depending on how Moscow goes with these dice lol

[Talleyrand19]

jesus, this is one of the worst dice-beatings I’ve ever seen…I know it isn’t helping you this game, but I once lost 3 90% battles on turn 1 as England and obviously lost the game as soon as it started…if that helps you feel better haha

[TheShrike]

I’m not even mad; that would be a futile exercise, I’m just disappointed because while some variance spices up the game and makes each one different, I feel like we’re wasting our time. I’m gonna hang in through the assault on Moscow though.
