That's true! If there was any counter-advantage it was luck and a difference in tactical approach. In particular, if Tiamaris had to withdraw for an extended period and there was a lot more to be done with the key up on top besides just fetching it, Alric's tactical gamble would almost certainly backfire, since he'd then be alone against both of them and whatever else might be up there. Even with 2-on-2, though, Reimu and Flandre may have some extra advantage in that Alric and Tiamaris are both (I think) a bit hesitant to cut loose on people.

I'll check in with Tiamaris' player to see if there's any objection, but I suspect we're both okay with either doing something random (weighted in X-Force's favor or even) or calling it close or whatever you guys like.

Update: Tiamaris' player is OK with a random roll weighted 3-to-1 in X-Force's favor, if you want to do it that way, or even, or however!
