Neato! It is hard to imagine this coming into play in the normal game much. However, it seems like this game, once you have a group who plays regularly, would almost require scenario construction. And your Big Honkin' Morter(tm) would be great for a (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jun-00, to lugnet.gaming)

Hi! (...) This is probably why Steve has many "assistants." When a game is that large, is it possible to allow people unconnected to that particular battle to mediate? I have a feeling that a 5- or 6- person Pirate Game might feasibly be run by one (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jun-00, to lugnet.gaming)
