Scram 111, max defense, keep ftr to last

@crockett36 said in crocket36 (Allies+39) vs Simon33 (X) OOB:

@crockett36 Not sure your policy, but rolling the dice is the cut off for me.

I’m a bit more lenient. If dice rolled wouldn’t affect the decision, I don’t mind.

That Classic move was very intense

Japan desperately rolled all dice on tech and got long range aircraft and smoked a fleet in the Pacific - the landscape has changed.
Son is over now, so probably tomorrow but possibly tonight

@cwglee51 Good game to you! I appreciate you poking holes in my strategy. There were definitely some things I’d overlooked.

And it appears that the future isn’t too terribly far away! We seem to be matched in the first round of the playoffs. I’ll pm you an opening bid.
