I guess we had better decide for sure on a day. I know we had discussed a meeting on the 17th. That is a Saturday.

I like the Castle idea. There could be defenders in the castle and intervening reinforcements outside the castle. There could be many ways to play the game. The middle ages would be a great way to play and it would be a good first game. Did you want (...) (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.richlug)
