You are mistaken if you think Buffalo meat is cheap. You better plan on having your family go to the local McDonald's for you each day they visit....[:D][:D][:D]

I can't picture your loving family just rolling you up to the home in a wheel-barrel and dumping you out and never visiting you?

If this is the case I would advise you to come up with an alternate plan like moving in with the cheerleaders at a local college (live or die you'll have FUN).

Good luck!!!

Please can we get back to this rule thing, it sounds like at least to me that most posters here would rather wait an indefinite amount of time to get all the alternate rules in then to get this game to market in a more reasonable time without some of the rules, not being negative at all or trying to stir the pot just like to know the thinking on this, please remember that the only knowledge I have of this game is the CWIF I just purchased and it has some rules but probably not up to date ones. I realize that once all the rules are in that Steve will have programmed the game so you will not be able to make an error on this rule or that rule which will be a lot better than having to read a rule over and over in the board game. Not being negative about rules just the time to do each one.

Here's my current status list for the optional rules. It should be pretty self explanatory. Those with xxx are not part of the initial release but will be added as 'patches' at no additional cost. New indicates those optional rules which are not part of CWIF.

Somewhere[&:] I have a list of which optional rules the AI Opponent will agree to play with - which is not all of these 81 options.

Okay thanks, no problem - I just didn't understand the whole sentence i.e what wapum was and how that fitted in to a sentence about the IRA - and no big deal.

Well "wapum" means nothing but is likely a mis-spelling of "wampum" which is North American Indian for "money".

Thus potentially insulting two different ethnicities in one sentence... Nice.

Boolean variables are True/False. Boolean logic is branching logic based on binary operations and branches: AND, OR, NOT, et al.
