Please be prompt and in vnet at least 5 minutes before start of game as sessions will only be once a week and only for 4 hours. If you cannot commit please dont start as it affects a lot of people.
Anyone who feels they cannot make regular Tuesday game is better of to coop with someone
Mike and I have compiled a list of house rules...not too many but just based on our experience and taken from other groups. No good rushing in till we have debated teams and house rules. Should be more than enough time for Version 1.2 to come out.
I have a preference to play the UK so feel free to add your preferences and I will alter this post as we go.
