First game of the year and once again another fun game of BBB. Details below to see if for once I can defeat Dave Fielder... :-\

Good report and sounds an interesting game. Hope the winner was the one with 'trolleyed' on his shirt.

Bella, bella! And hurrah for the 84eme. This is one of my favourite scenarios, but it is one where particularly good or bad dice early on can have exponential effects later in the game. Commiserations, Steve, and better luck next time!

Dave was indeed wearing said t-shirt Lemmey.

Thanks Chris. A great little scenario and one that will be worth replaying as mentioned on my Blog. Certainly the 84th should get some significant honours for their heroics.....
