Use this one. that is all that is on the cover.

Made some discoveries early this morning. After this next week when we go in to round 3 and combine teams. Currently we have Attack 175 Defense 231. I know we will be adding more to it. Looking at the other teams when they combine next round.
Genghis Kahn/Vercingetorix A:184 D:219
Achilles/Vlad A:163 D:210
Alexander/Hector A:169 D:208
We are a minimum of 33 points behind to beat their defenses.

If you are in the mood for a good post apocalypse sci-fi piece of amazing pick this one up. It is a bit chunky but worth it

We have really been racking up the defense points. I am going to try to raise the number of attack points for this round. I have been saving a couple of chunky ones just for the occasion.
