XDAP2 - Round 1 - Atlanta Axis vs. Boldman

Well there is this old saying: Fortune favours the bold

I am just guessing at this point it is referring to another bold.

@Boldfresh:

the white flag is trying very hard to fly - any moment now probably.

with gandalf there could be some hope.  perhaps he could start by lowering the axis defense hit rate by 80%.

We can always dress Gamerman up as Gandalf if it makes you feel any better :P.

Bar91 and Wittman have hung on until the bitter end.

We have almost 3000 TUV over them, but there’s no quit!

One more turn maybe…
