I think another issues that arose is that people with huge armies (Dan
Whatshisname:), James Aldrich(1)) would then have an unfair advantage
over those that haven't complied 500-1000 troops. So how do you settle that?
About gaming - I would LOVE to meet sometime over the holidays and set up a
huge playing area and have a huge Brickwars game. I'm willing to
drive to some central location if we decided to do it. Have army, will
travel:) Anyone open to such a possibility?
(1) How many people here actually know James? One of the nicest guys you
will ever meet ... :)
