Take it to work with you and do the old comic-book-inside-the-text-book thing.  It still works, after all these years.

There is a .pdf floating around and I happen to have it.  :goodboy:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Is it the pre-pub one posted on CSW a while back?

Habbaku

Yep.  It's the same as the printed rules, only lacking the errata (which have been posted).

Great, send it to Tamas so he can start selling copies for 500000 zlotydracmas, or whatever stone coin they use over there.

Habbaku

They use the Megkövültcukorrépa ($B).

Now days one just uses a tablet.

Really tempted to buy up a used copy of http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3935/the-art-of-siege after hearing some more about it.

Fuck.

I got a copy last Origins I attended.  Think I got it at the auction, but not sure.

Habbaku

And you're selling it now for the low, low price of $50, right?

I don't intend to sell it.  I might be persuaded to change my mind, but not for $50.

Blitzkrieg Legend is charged and packing;  unless they ship it by the end of the day, doubtful I'll get it by tomorrow.
