XPAD2 Game 21 Dicer's Creed (axis) vs Team GARL (allies+12)

KILL!

Quintilius Varus, give me back my legions!

Gents, I am traveling with my family, so getting some quality minutes to look over the map is rough, and obviously I need more than a few minutes given the situation as it is.  So, I asked Seth to hold off for a bit so we can get on the same page.

Wisdom…  and you have earned right to take some extra time.

Take your time.  My only fear is that seth will disappear for another week again! :(

The planners plan but planning won’t do you any good when DOOM has arrived…  :evil:

Uh, oh…. not again!

For my man Karl.

Some Tank - KILL KILL KILL!

And here we see the scewed view the results of the dice battles have forced on us that a failed battle with low odds for the attacker is considered a big success for the defender.
