XDAP4 The Numenoreans VS The Fighting Mongooses

@wheatbeer:

I assumed we were bidding for normal luck.

I would happy to play low luck, but only if we do the bidding over again with the foreknowledge that bids apply to a low luck game because I definitely would have bid differently for low luck.

I’d like to get things underway. Unless my teammates disagree with me, I think the best option is to do normal luck + stick with the bidding we’ve already done. Assuming that’s the direction we go, which bid units do you want, and where do you want them?

@wheatbeer:

Assuming we’re sticking with a normal luck bid:

Our placement will be 1 UK sub in SZ98 and 1 UK infantry in Sudan.

Sounds good.

Please PM me your email addresses, so that I can have the MARTI die rolls emailed to you.

@wheatbeer:

Need to wait for kilroy’s input.

He’s probably taking charge of US/China/UK.

I will be afk for the rest of this evening, and for a good chunk of tomorrow. I guess I’ll finish my turn then.

A minor edit–undid my movement of an AA gun.

Germany has also added [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uwhthaUDeY]this song to the game.

@wheatbeer:

Just to be sure, you know Gargantua added a Soviet strategic bomber to the setup, right?

I hadn’t been aware of that. But rules are rules, so go ahead and edit one in.

On another matter, I’d like to do a better job of providing the song for Germany. It’s impossible to watch this song just once! :)

To set the mood for Japan’s first turn, Germany offers this song!  8-)

Ignore the first 20 seconds.

@wheatbeer:

lol, I guess I’ll find out, I’ve watched it once  :lol:

A beginning, I see.
