No, they'd never be able to pull it off without a lot of negative publicity.
It only takes one complaint to scupper everything. As it is, I suspect
there'll be several delays and serious reviews before they finally decide to
release it. Even then someone's bound to make a comment about missing a 1x1
tile and get a lashing from everyone else.

Sales-wise I'd call it unlucky. Just my $0.02 worth. Play well. Tim Strutt (22 years ago, 4-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam)
