    Yeah, was hoping for more luck in the Pacific, but you took the shot and it paid off!


  • @simon33

    Oops, sorry, I just say I mis-clicked the build on Germany - should have been 8 mechs and not 8 art. Are you OK if I make an adjustment there?

    Was trying to squeeze the turn in on my laptop, and it’s harder to see what’s going on…

    Assumed you are OK with the edit as it was a pretty obvious one to keep things moving. Please let me know if not.


  • @simon33

    Man, you’re still doing well in the Pacific - every battle except DNG you got 1-2 defensive hits, when usually you needed a 2 to hit. Happened last round too!

    np on the edits,

    Sorry for the delay. I wasn’t really sure about which way to go on this one until I looked at it after a better night’s sleep.

    @Booper said in 2025 OOB Playoff round 1 Simon33(L+40) vs Booper:

    @simon33

    Man, you’re still doing well in the Pacific - every battle except DNG you got 1-2 defensive hits, when usually you needed a 2 to hit. Happened last round too!

    I might be getting the dice but you are still holding off the mighty USA like a boss! I guess with my fifth CV on the way, that might be slowing down shortly and Anzac are going to start making a contribution too.
