I agree. I am the only one who knows all the rules when I play so every game I end up having to look up certain rules and prove I’m not making it up etc. to my idiot friends who always forget them (cause they just ask me, and then when they dont like what they hear they argue until I prove them wrong with the rules.) It speeds up a game A LOT if EVERYONE knows the rules. Its also an advantage to know ALL of the rules if someone else doesnt cause then you can do stuff they didn’t think or know about cause there lazy ass didt read the book.

and of course, “Errata” is plural. If you find one mistake that you wish to correct it’s “Erratum”

Sorry, i am a bit bored, and this opportunity for being a smartass was just too tempting :)

Ummmm ‘a ferret who wishes to take its own life’? (you’re telling a joke, right?)

I agree, but it is the rhetoric. people debate that gun violence went up in britain after illegalization…true, then they add that aggrevated assault went up for the same reason. Aggrevated assualt doesn’t mean “gun violence”, and the “uncautious” reader would get easily confused.

I often remember that all the dirty tricks and annoying habits do result often in a higher winning percentage. Do the players that you are matched up against, simply irritate to throw you off your game? I am reminded on one such case where I went up against a fellow Axis and Allies player that couldn’t stop talking. I’m serious; the whole ordeal was simply excruciating, and this coming from a guy that usually kept to himself! Every single move I made, whether it was simply placing my units or routinely refilling my transports, he would question and nitpick at it. Always pressuring you to hurry up and end your move, whereupon the start of his, he would spend 5 minutes intentionally pondering on what to purchase.

Did he win? You sure bet he did. And it was not the fact that he was a better player tactical wise, but because he could convince you to reconsider your own sound moves and making senseless judgment errors. I still believe that the 99% of all Axis and Allies players are fine, upstanding individuals, but there are just some people who will go to any level to win. And when you go up against these like, question yourself if the game is really worth playing against him.

Well you certainly wouldn’t be the first one :wink:

But seriously, Don’s Eassys are more of a template to build you own strategies. From a military standpoint, even his moves can be countered.

You know Xi, you COULD log in once in a while :)

Well! I guess I just answered the other part of my ? with my own mistake in the e-mail. Dagumit! I gotta wake up.

However, don’t you review the submissions to your “STRATEGY” webpage
