X-DAP FINAL - Dairy(Qyrn?) vs. TeamBoldDutch - Game 1

@Cow:

I remember the first time I took Iwo Jima in a team game with Veqryn. Veqryn thought it was dumb… Macarthur won the Pacific and he did it because he took Iwo Jima.

Was that a cowluck game?

@Omega1759:

@Gamerman01:

Iwo Jima has LOADS of strategic value!!  And major morale implications for both countries!  :-)

And it’s a safe IPC in US pocket vs one IPC safe outside of Japan’s pockets. Small gain, but 2 IPC per turn add up.

omega you crack me UP bro.
