He ...Do not feel bad about your loss to Jim Burris. He is a superb player. Moreover, I think that the Germans are favoured in AP114, even if the Brits manage to land an FFE or two.<br /><br />Good game with Alex Key. <br /><br />Played BFP34 last night, and my opponent had a knack for rolling threes (the CCP SAN) matched only by my Sniper's knack for finding prime targets. On the last turn, my Sniper pinned an IJA HS (and 8-0 leader) that was poised to jump a hapless 1-2-7 in CC. Success would have granted the IJA control of the building.<br /><br />The thing with ASL is not too give up too early. It is amazing how a single DR can turn things around.<br /><br />The venue looks really charming, a setting akin to that of Grenadier. Kudos to you for attending even though work kept you from playing all five rounds.<br /><br />Thanks most of all for posting your photos and reflections on the event.Chris Doaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06965145023794602433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5260923292814862538.post-27974476464342373662016-03-20T21:57:07.219-05:002016-03-20T21:57:07.219-05:00Thanks Roy.

I'm ...Scott, glad to see you had a great time. I'm sure Dan puts on a great tournament, alas, it's a horrible time of year in my business. I like the way you illustrate your blog with GIFs. Very well done, looking forward to seeing you and playing you in Texas this year, hopefully you can make it.Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14074885506074034158noreply@blogger.com
