Stack 'em two deep, pack them with heroes, stick a heroic general in front and chaaarge! <br /><br />I'm glad it was a close one- I wanted games to end with a bang, and with a clear victor, as in Command and Colors. It is surprising how many games come down to the very last medal.<br /><br />Best, SimonBigRedBathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622983082204451158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-21711605958894695972015-04-03T23:10:59.428+09:002015-04-03T23:10:59.428+09:00Great stuff, Aaron, It's good to see the Gauls...Great stuff, Aaron, It's good to see the Gauls having a good showing against the dastardly Romans...Calibanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13137774792085672600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-62152076345869489432015-04-03T23:06:30.450+09:002015-04-03T23:06:30.450+09:00A real nail-biting finish, Aaron!
