2013-06-21(D) Michael Rodgers vs Jack O'Quin Allies win
2012-06-23(A) Andy Beaton vs Davide Bendazzi Allies winTotally diced to death - starting to see where dice superstitions come from.
2012-06-23(D) Davide Bendazzi vs Andy Beaton Allies winAs already said by Andy, it was ruined a lil bit by the dice.
