Hi!
'If we can beat down A, B will be next'

what if 'B will be next' is very unlikely going to happen, but we just want to suggest B would be our next target if we are successfully pull off A. How should I rephase it here. -Terr

Hi Clive!

thank you for the input, although what I was looking for was just a slight bit lower register than 'will be next', but not trying to sound forfeited for what will be happening, hte way 'may/might/could be next' sounds to me like he wish they will never have to face B. Somewhere between lines that were sarcastic or a joke could help. THanks in advance. -Terr

Hi Terr,

Sorry, I don't understand what you are looking for. Write a few sentences, if you like, and I'll have a look at them.
