11L LL(+19) v Gamerman01(x) '41 no tech

[gamerman01]

You are right - regular season vs. a playoff game threatening to go down 0-2.  Steelers also had an amazing comeback but fell just short.

I am so spoiled by the teams I picked from my childhood.  They have won more than their share of championships, and almost always go to the playoffs……  Makes it harder to swallow when they lose  :-)

But when my teams lose, if it’s a competitive game you can’t feel too bad…  Sometimes it’s just how the ball bounces…

Maybe I can sneak in that Italian move during 7th hour…

Z60 taken with destroyer, 2 fighters

I noticed during noncombat moves that I see I did not list the attack of the transport in Z64.  :|  that brings up a good question, I have always allowed obvious walkins and transport autokills but that may not be what you do, and maybe I should not be allowing them.  What are your thoughts?  I’m leaving the transport there for now, but you can let me know how we will play it in general.

That’s right, LUCKY  :-)
Remember Z50 on J1?  :roll:

[gamerman01]

Your noncom’s pretty screwed up this time, Luck.  I figured out what you did using your map and I can tell it was all legal.

If you miss a walk-in or auto-kill it’s up to the defender to decide whether he will allow it.  However, if he doesn’t, he must consider that the opponent will probably be even more strict in return the rest of the game.

I’m OK with allowing this one because of the circumstances (your fighters are pretty much staying at home anyway, 64 is right in front of you - looks like you just failed to type it).

If the transport were more out of the way and not so obvious, I would not blame a player for refusing to allow.  So it’s case by case and the defender has full right of refusal, in my book.
