Japanese are kinda fun but (1) as I knew, impossible to force a game with and (2) utterly lacking in manouvre or ... |

Kevin - excellent to hear from you!
Probably too short notice for tomorrow's tournament (!) but would be great to catch up. You have my email - pretty active, if small, group up here in MA/NY/CT. |

Fascinating. I definitely remember not paying command points for e.g. Mongol hostages. |
