BM 23 Playoff Final Gamerman (L+4) vs Farmboy (X)

@axis-dominion Tried some test games with Daaras and Stu on some variations, going to so far as to use the bid on land units for the G1 eastern front attacks and building an AB on Poland for the land scramble (if you also attack baltic states). Looked strong for the first few rounds but Allies ended up recovering, just so hard to kill Russia quickly in PTV. But we’ll see, it will be a fun one.

@Karl7

Hold on, going to make NCM with USSR

Later today
