@cwglee51 Oof, I need to teach my guys how to shoot back. Lots of missed opportunities there.

One thing: the UK carrier move you did wasn’t legal. Since there was a complete whiff in 97, the carrier is obligated to move to pick up the surviving plane from London. Suicide missions aren’t allowed. In this case I wish they were. Would much prefer having that plane dead.

yeah. it’s dead no matter where it goes. may as well make you reach for it ;)

@mikawagunichi

Yes, for the player who used the token would have to live the result of the 2nd roll regardless. We could agree that another re-roll would not be allowed. But I have always assumed the opponent who has now taken possession of the token could decide the 2nd the roll was so horrible, he could trade in the token and have the dice re-rerolled a third time. As holding onto the token is so precious, I have never seen it used a second, let alone, third time.
