Scramble to SZ97?

@farmboy Scramble to defend Sardinia / Sicily. Loser, but it could cause problems for defending CVs, so I ask.

@axis-dominion said in L24 bm4 axis-dom (axis) vs Farmboy (allies+14):

fyi i mis-clicked and took out the marine instead of the mech, which obviously was a dumb mistake as it could have very well affected the outcome, but thankfully it didn’t. i swapped it back after the battle. lmk if you’re ok with that. thanks.

just to be clear, it wasn’t technically a mis-click, i just got confused during casualty choice for some reason and botched it up. so little more than just clicking the wrong button, but still was not my real intention as keeping the marine would be the obvious choice for a number of reasons.
