Note from A_E: "Thank you to all those who viewed and interacted with the live cast on Saturday night, it was an absolute blast. IpKaiFung proved to be a great cast partner with more tactical insight and statistical prowess than previously thought humanly possible.
Unluckily there were internet issues with my ISP strangling me for uploading too much warfare and voyeuristic videos of IpKaiFung enjoying said gameplay. But community legend Rogers came to the rescue and saved the stream so big thanks to him. Tune in next week at 8pm GMT. The only thing I can promise you is all-out war."
Featured Games:
Imperial Dane vs. Alt`
A titanic encounter between the Minister of Propaganda and the friendly but fierce Alt` - powerful prepared position play vs. vicious attacks from left, right, and centre. A very entertaining series.
