[kilroynothere]

@robson good for you! Enjoy the time off with your family.

[kilroynothere]

@Robson hope you enjoyed your vacation. I unfortunately had a stay in the hospital last weekend with a very large kidney stone. Procedure was successful and I’m out now and recovering, but still have some healing to do. Hope you never get one. No fun at all!

[Robson]

@kilroynothere Damn I hope you recover soon. My father had one long time ago but I remember how bad it was.
Our holiday was quite amazing. Northern Italy is always worth a visit. The kids enjoyed the water and my wife and the italian kitchen.

@robson Thanks, Robson. Quick question as I’m learning this variant. Were most of those UK mechs destined for Russia before Japan attacked the stack? Just curious as I’m with you that thinking Japan’s primary role is to suck resources their way because I have no clue how they ever gain a victory token.

@kilroynothere said in Robson (X) vs Kilroynothere (A) G40 YGTE - game2 revenge of the dice gods:

Thanks, Robson. Quick question as I’m learning this variant. Were most of those UK mechs destined for Russia before Japan attacked the stack? Just curious as I’m with you that thinking Japan’s primary role is to suck resources their way because I have no clue how they ever gain a victory token.

Hey Kilroy,

yes exactely that was my initial thought. Still struggeling to find a way to gain a token for Japan.

[kilroynothere]

@robson glad to see I’m not the only one trying to figure Japan out! Curious YG indicates this is a pretty balanced mod, and I certainly trust his judgement on it… I just don’t know how Japan contributes besides sucking resources from the allies.

[kilroynothere]

@kilroynothere I meant to type curious [how the tournament is going] - or is it done? Bet there is some very interesting gambits to learn from that!
