Edited my American NCM. Shouldn’t be an issue considering China/US happens at the same time.

Shame I didn’t realise another way out when I was playing with UK. Otherwise I wouldn’t have suicided my UK troops the way I did. But Java is a VC. I just hope there is some way to mark the territories. Cause it is confusing as hell.

@Shin:

Hey, i forgot you could have gotten Java too!

No biggie.  Just means I win next round.

Hey, after this - you want to play a few regular League games with normal G40 rules?  I really want to take you on in a situation where wonky rulesets don’t take away from the clarity of things.

Also, switching one of my MInf for an AA gun.

Not interested. I stopped playing league games for this season. I am planning on coming back next season (provided we use the house league rules). Which is also why I am trying to make sure they are ready before then. If they aren’t ready then I am not sure I am going to be playing.

@Shin:

Oh, that’s too bad.  Why?  You’re just not a fan of the current ruleset?

Current rules are flawed. Which is why we use a bidding system, which creates more flaws. I am not interested in any of that. House rules are to make sure bidding is no longer needed and to create an even game from the get go.
