Summary
That was very interesting game,but if time had not run out and we went the extra turn, than the Saim Hann would have won on goals…
I did plan on using the bikes and Destructor together, but found these pesky point eared begins in my backyard and that went out the door, since I was trying to clear my deployment zone and try and hold the line..always fun.
Regards
Greg
