Really, the only team that compares to the Cubs anymore...is the Cubs. Its hard to top more than a century of failure at anything.

Yeah, it's pretty bad, the best part of being a Cubs fan is that, because they play so many day games, you get an excuse to drink beer at 1 pm. Note: the beer most associated with the Cubs is Old Style, which is a truly terrible pale lager that's kind of like Pabst Blue Ribbon, except even hipsters don't like it. It's bad even by the standards of American beer.

Gameplay notes:

This is pretty self-explanatory, but I might as well highlight a few interesting things.

1. I picked Ryogo over Mayer for the refight because...actually, I have no idea why. I switched Kazuki's def-c to anti-F because I didn't expect Lukav to get killed in the first two turns, and was thinking he'd target Kazuki almost exclusively.

2. Yes, Body Smash can kill the final boss in one hit. I mean, it doesn't end the mission, but it's a hell of a way to start things off.

3. Out of the four wanzers I have, only one has a shield. The problem is that the enemies on this map do a ton of damage, which leads me switching the order the character move in so to conserve Kazuki's HP.

4. I got really lucky with enemy ejections and surrenders, but I'm pretty sure I would have won the mission anyway, as Ryogo, Miho and Liu had plenty of HP left at the end of the mission.
