[MrRoboto]

I score a final, desperate hit.

Will you take the cruiser? Or something else?

[AndrewAAGamer]

Yes, Cruiser please.

[MrRoboto]

Oh, the irony. When I was forced to do the battle in local mode before editing, I completely crushed your fleet…

[AndrewAAGamer]

Yeah, that has been my experience too. I always seem to roll better on Local than Forum.

[MrRoboto]

cool. Well that’s it, congratulations to your victory.

[MrRoboto]

and -32 ELO for me, because your BM4-rating is so low (yet)

[AndrewAAGamer]

Thank you for the game!

[AndrewAAGamer]

So, normally I would offer best 2 out of 3. However, I have to say I am not liking BM4.

Would you be interested in another game but switching to OOB?

[MrRoboto]

I’d rather stick to BM, but thanks.

[AndrewAAGamer]

Totally understandable. Apparently you feel the same way about OOB that I do about BM4. :)

[MrRoboto]

It seems that way.

Plus, it’s just difficult to adapt. I think PtV is a great mode on paper, but I when I played it I kept forgetting the rules, because I was so used to BM
