Summary
 
Wow that was a game. Let look at the SR rolls for both turns, I won both,The first one by one and the second Trent through he had it, he rolled a six and so I need 5+ and I get a 6.He was about ready to through the dice out the door..If he had won turn two, I image there would have been a lot of dead bikers.. since he was using 20 thunders…
 
I understand why he conceded since by that time had had lost 4 formations and had two broken. He had one whole flank just about open, all he had was a SALAMANDER SCOUT PLATOON sitting there and other flank well not looking good either..
