2020-06-13(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winDan Best had the Russians and I the Germans. I got to go first and proceeded to inflict grievous losses on Dan's Russians. By the end of Turn 1, it was over and the Russians conceded. Losses and MALF'd guns were so much that the Russians were doomed. Hard to concede so early, but the scenario does seem to make that a potential risk if both players set up in each other's grills as we did. Not a scenario I play again and hard to recommend as well.
