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

[boldfresh]

i am very interested to see how you plan to hold Moscow AND Volgo.  I’m just here to learn.

[Hank13]

@Boldfresh:

i sure hope hank has his turn ready.  it isn’t like anything russia was going to do would affect it.   :-)

Ready to go. Will post after dinner or after the kid goes to bed. No significant dice rolls or decisions for the allies on this one.

[boldfresh]

Great.  Enjoy dinner.

[boldfresh]

@Cow:

AWN is better than me.

now there’s the one thing i can remember you ever saying that i can wholeheartedly agree with - we should commemorate this day with some sort of memento.  :roll:

so if we beat AWN, would you just concede the tournament to us without another shot being fired?

cheers

[Hank13]

Going to need a scramble decision in Carolines.

Map coming.
