Re: G4015L ShinJi(Allies +14) v Karl7(Axis) Part2

Well, that was why I put two carriers there.  Plus the Dst.  I thought you might try an air-only strafe, and I wanted you to pay dearly for it.

Are you conceding, or should we play on?

Gotta say, though, I did not expect it to go THAT well!

See, it’s the crazy dice swings that keep me coming back!  Even when the dice hate me.  I tried playing low luck once.  Never again.  SO BORING.

Thinkin’ bout it as I work.
