[Shin-Ji]

It was actually the full 20, even factoring in the 1 less damage.  I always take that into account.

[Shin-Ji]

Would you like to remove 1 Inf and save 1 PU?

[Guest]

If I repair 18 damage, I can build a maximum of 8 units (which I did). So I am unsure what the problem is.

[Shin-Ji]

Ah!  Never mind.  I’m just being punchy again, it seems.  I really need to be getting more sleep. :P

So, interceptions?  Flying Tigers?

I’m assuming that I can bomb a Medium IC for 10 points, based on the existing ones’ damage limits.

I guess if you want to do a flying tiger, I’ll have to just redo the combat move (with everything the same minus the ones you hit).
