Hi there, Arthur

I usually strip out whatever I'm doing as an "After Action Report" in
my current Solo game and then put together some of these as articles
for the Lone Warrior, or (as in this case) for "Saga" the on-line
magazine edited by Perry Gray (which is also reprinted in MagWeb). It
gives me a pretty lofty target to hit, and a chance to clear my head
and I often get a lot of good feed-back on fine-tuning the article.

Please feel free to repost this one, with appropriate credit to the
Yahoo SoloWarGame group (who always seem to add a lot to the end
result, whether on-line or with PM's, thanks guys) and to Saga

Regards

Bob
