XDAP Final… eh, i mean, Semifinal - Allweneedishank vs. TeamBoldDutch

[allweneedislove]

the attacker has already made all their combat moves.
the lowluck reroll is just to reroll a single battle not redo combat moves.

we all agree that the attacker must roll at least one round of battle.

[boldfresh]

Thank you play on.

[boldfresh]

Dutch and I have a 1000 dollar bet riding on what we each think you are gonna do on j5 hank… im getting a little tight on holdin my breath here!

[boldfresh]

I find it interesting that hank just happened to become super busy right at the time that the most difficult japanese turn of the match came up.  Weird, but they say truth is stranger than fiction.  :-P

[boldfresh]

Da da da da da da da da d ad a da

[Hank13]

Here’s Japan 5 combat. We would like to use our low luck in Amur.

Take it away allweneedislove.

japan “wins” with 5 units left.

hank pick which 5 units you want to survive and finish the rest of the turn.

[boldfresh]

Its like when a guy stands over a putt for too long.  You just know he is gonna miss it.

Alright, Hank fill us in on why the purchases and combat moves are different on the first map you posted and the final map.

[allweneedislove]

i just checked and you are right.

hank has called it a night already, but i see what he did and can answer for him.

the first and incorrect file he posted is one of his many mock turns(i know there were many because this turn we actually emailed mock turns back and forth tonight). he also labelled it mock. you will notice that there were no dice emails for that incorrect file.

the second and correct file will match the dice emails.

sorry for the inconvenience.

[Gargantua]

Many pips were lost.
