Summary

 

Well I knew, before we started it was not going to be a win.But hey it was still fun to fight and in some parts I was grinning from ear to ear. Although some of the dice rolling was well, not as funny..Two engagements needing 4+ and not getting a single hit..

 

Thanks for the game Mathew
