    Never take snipers, they will never hit. EVER!

    Thanks very much. I don't know if we'll ever do a rematch. I'm just happen I broke my losing streak.

    Thanks, Sean. We had a lot of fun doing this one. We had to have the Germans sit one game out and thought that this would be a bit of fun.

    Thanks, Josh. I wanted to make up for my loss the last time and got really lucky on some important dice throws.

    Hello, nice play, nice armies! one little thing, i think you played the exeptional damage-rule with the wound roll wrong. after you make the wound roll, with a "6", you have to roll again for another "6". i think it is not a single roll of "6"

    Thanks for watching. Good eye, mate. I noticed that too when I rewatched it, but by the time I had it ready to go it was too late. We're usually half in the bag by the time we actually start rolling dice as we spend hours talking, drinking and eating because we rarely get to play. I plead guilty for reasons of beer-fueled enthusiasm. lol

    Thanks very much. The sheds were supposed to be in a busted up left over Japanese industrial compound, but I never got the brick walls out. lol. But it was so much fun to get the North Koreans out on the table for a game. And the USMC? Wow! They're so great to play.
