I had a queen sacrifice in this game Game 2076128

It was actually a sound sacrifice, but I blew it my next move 🙁

That can't be considered a sacrifice, becuase you're exchanging for two rooks worth more combined than the queen is?

Not nearly as pretty as GalaxyShield's, and I suspect it might not have been sound, but too tempting to pass up....

I think Ark's is easily the most impressive so far. That game was sick dude. 😀
