Don't underestimate our DBM, either. Plenty of evidence that regular mental exercise helps keep people asymptomatic longer. |

You certainly need the Serotonin boost to play DBM ;-) |

The antidote to dementia – becoming Napoleon. |

I love DBA; but always felt closer to dementia after playing DBM. |

I thought DBM CAUSED dementia! |

No, no. DBM causes madness, of course, but you remember things better and the brain processes information better with mental exercise. So unlike an Alzheimer's victim, you'll remember what you had for breakfast, who your relatives are and exactly why you lost the last game and how unhistorical it was--which is what causes the madness, of course. So ideally a set of rules which provides strenuous mental exercise without driving you mad--and I'm not going that far off subject. (Did anyone else notice that the "favorite wargame rules" poll even giving us each ten votes for only 60 rules, couldn't get anything about 12%? Last time I looked, TSATF was the only on in double digits. Anarchy doesn't begin to describe historical miniatures.) |

I'm pretty sure this is how the zombie plague starts… |

And I some this goes double for DBMM😎 |

I agree with Winston, since interpreting Barker-ese is maddening. |

For a version of DBX written using normal wargame terms and organized as per current standards try: A Game of Fire and Ice. A total rethinking of DBX mechanics (also a medieval specific version and a Fantsitorical version + great campaign system). Guranteed to cause happy gaming (a form of demintia…) Thomas J. Thomas
