16L Playoff BM 2.0 JDOW (Allies) vs rubioton (Axis+10)

@AldoRaine I was thinking. My mulligan should have some cost–but if was game changing, what would be the point??? I was thinking you could add 5 IPCs to the Allies. Not as bid unit, but as extra money. You could add to Russians and use now if you want.

Let me know what you think.

@AldoRaine Japan’s turn will be very interesting. Could be an early game if you do what i think you are and the dice go decisively one way or another.

Another prickly rule in there I’ve had come up in a game is if the target sea zone has a submarine, you can send a submarine with the transport and not attack the sub. You always have a choice to not attack the sub, but some I played with though it had t be a surface warship escort
