  • yea wow damn, that’s some pretty bad dice… I mean average expected was negative anyway but this is double that even I think.

    I guess G will avenge… but your remaining fleet is toast… but still, will be nice to have Italy out of the med early game ;)



  • man, this is almost like a reverse Taranto, but better for me I think!


  • Yep, crazy bad dice for me there. Overall.
