Summary

That was very interesting game…

  • Howling Banshee did well at the start, but my wonderful armours saves didn't help(7 dice and the highest was 3)…
  • Again the cobras didn't get test the other firing mode, since there was no targets with shields..
  • PHOENIX BOMBERS performed well, and I think the 325 points is about right…

May the dice roll high for you

Regards
Greg
