The Baron in the USA has played his first game with my new rules, and has posted an account on his blog.

Interestingly, he played the game which I designed to be run using playing cards, without using any playing cards at all! All very interesting.

Cheers, Simon

Thanks James- I know you liked C&C, and these have a similar level of complexity, so I hope you'll enjoy!

Best, Simon

I"m with him on the cards. I think I'll try this with the dice as well.

Thanks chaps!

There are essentially three ways to play. The first is the playing cards that I tend to use with the game. I don't mind these being on the table, and they are tidied away at the end of each turn so there is a window of card-less tranquility.

The second is to use dice, rolling D10 to activate units, and to record previous activations. This is very practical, although it might require a couple of dozen D10s.

The third and final options is to use chits drawn from a cup. I tried these out last week in the below game, and they worked very well; they work pretty much as well as cards, whilst being less obtrusive, like the dice.

I'm going to start selling sets of chits from my shop, very shortly. :-)

Best, Simon
