Wow, that seems so long ago... And look at the typing :-(

My ancients research was cut pretty well much cut off 5 years ago
once children started arriving, and I had to get a "real" job :-(

Still, I have some stuff simmering along at the moment that I really
need to get written up and sent away to Slingshot.

And of course, physical gaming went out the window too - I have never
had a game of 3.1, and only 4 of 3.0... Which is why I hardly ever
post here on the dbm list. But I do check the mails occasionally.

Still, I will be finally returning to NZ in early 2010, and that
means being back in gaming land. I've just based up my first set of
figures in many years in preparation...

Cheers, Luke

It seems to be my day to wind Duncan up :-) Actually I was being a little silly... I remember reading whole chapters on this subject in Classical Warfare...
