2018L Shin-Ji (Axis, no IJ) vs AeV

french just got convoyed lol

Sorry for all the edits at the end of last turn forgot to move a lot of pieces. Looks like it’s going to be over one way or the other.

@Martin lol it was a great party. I feel like the all the grad parties and grade 12 ending took most of my time and led to me making some very questionable axis and allies moves the last few weeks, but it was all worth it.

@farmboy

Thx, I feel like this is a pivotal battle, and that you wanted me to take this one… but I have to go for it, and hope to get lucky. Rolls coming shortly!

It was definitely a pivotal one. It wasn’t so much that I wanted you to take it. I had wanted to hit your stack in Yugoslavia before and I wanted to be able to protect those transports. I thought I did enough to discourage the attack, but I can see, given the game situation, that it may have been worth the gamble at this point.
