2021 BM4 playoff axis-d vs farmboy (+19)

@axis-dominion gl and hf!

I’ll try to be a little uncharacteristic and scramble 110

@axis-dominion also I adjusted my dice email to farmboyaag@yahoo.com. If it is not too late use that. if it is, I can adjust on my turn.

@axis-dominion except for 111, it looks like I had a better G1 than usual. I was very nervous about 110 of course since I almost never scramble.

definitely good turn for you! 110 was below average, but then France just added to the insult…

rolls were just absolutely atrocious… 110 could’ve been a nightmare based on my round 1 combat rolls… but thankfully yours were not that much better so I still ended up barely with a positive result

With better dice I was in a position to win the battle after your first roll. Had my dice been worse, or yours better, I might have had to concede right then and there. Which is why I almost never do that. But since I’m playing you I feel I need to take some risks.

@axis-dominion I’ll let the sub fight a round. When you get a hit, destroyer sinks and sub submerges.
