I was soooo close to not doing Manchuria.  Soooo close!  Glad I took the risk.

[JDOW]

You guys have a soft spot for low odds attacks:D

[Shin-Ji]

I know I do!  But in this case, it was more a function of risk vs reward.  If I didn’t get 4+ hits in the first round, I just retreat.  I’m still able to put up a decent defense.

But then I got 8 hits in the first round!
