1st, a big THANK YOU to SACAS, who had purposed we meet at 20h30 and I countered with 20h00 and we met shortly after 20h00 and thank you for accommodating my time of choice for our match this round.
2 very tense games with Sacas, 1st game 40 turns in 35 mins and 2nd game 50 turns in 40 mins and in both games as Axis, I shot 39% and he shot 37% and difficult to win shooting like that with the AXIS, thus a big CONGRATS to GLIDAS72 who won both his games against TWAMTAACK in what will now be known as "The Disaster at Le Moulin De Buisson" for TWAMTAACK!
1st game I had several chances on a 1 fig to get to 4 kills and thus make the 2nd game somewhat easier, missed and SACAS did well to move the 1 fig to safety even though I had 2 more chances at the end of the game to try to kill it and didn't and he finished it to win 6-3.

2nd game was even more tense with SACAS trying to get to 3 kills and having his chances as well and missing with his dice, which where not good for the AXIS this match. I got lucky in killing his ARTY, which he moved up next to the MEDAL OBJECTIVE, hit 2-6 to kill it and then SACAS played well defensively and moved his units to the forest in the lower left and without his ARTY to defend the CENTER I eventually was able to finish a 1 fig in the corner with BARRAGE and win 6-2 and win the match overall.

Results of match:
Sacas / Allies vs Gonzalan / Axis, 6-3, 23-14
Sacas / Axis vs Gonzalan / Allies, 2-6, 11-19
Sacas vs Gonzalan, 8-9, 34-33Moves me up a little with 3 matches to go, but top 3 in VCX1302, Le Pelican and Bekelian, if they continue to win, will be difficult to catch, but will be fun to try starting with J9 and VCX1302!!
Look forward to that match with the defending 2014 French Open Champion!!

Gonzalan
