Canuck12 (Axis) vs. Gargantua (Allies +12) G40 WITH TECH!

So, you will be buying your bomber with your bid cash then?

This will be interesting. The long time the allies wait to engage might prove to be an advantage with the tech. Maybe it’s the key to balancing the game?

A couple of weird ones there. :-P Yugoslavians are tough motherfuckers. ;-)

Forgot your Bomber though. Sorry.

I don’t know actually. I would go by the official rules. I think they disappear…

Here is is from the rulebook:

Step 2: Roll Research Dice
Roll each of your purchased research dice.
Success: If you roll at least one “6”, you have successfully made a technological
breakthrough. Continue to step 3.
Failure: If you don’t roll a “6”, your research has failed.

Does that mean no protest to the “tech dice disappear” argument?

I was expecting to have to negotiate…

Japan is on the deck and ready if we’re in agreement on the rules.
