Classic standard game needs 4th player

Hi

Anybody help us out - we are suddenly short of a 4th player.

Classic board - non-rt - standard cards, unlimited reinforcements.

Any standard welcome.

I am sure that London's loss will be Eire's gain, 3seven1 (although you may struggle to recognise the countrymen of Behan, Heaney, Joyce and Yeats by the above description).

However, the emotional scars caused by your absence will, I am sure, heal - eventually!

Postscript to postscript

Two facts you may not know about 'Top-Cat'

In the UK the show was referred to as 'Boss Cat' - because Top Cat was a brand of cat-food and it would have breached the BBC's advertising guide-lines.

Top Cat was based on the 'Phil-Silver's Show' - better known to most of us as 'Bilko'

That is all ...

In case you were wondering..

Top Cat, Benny the Ball, Brains, Choo-Choo (That's right, TC), Spook and Fancy.

Did you doubt me?

TV memories

When I was a kid of seven or so - we had some great TV from the States - 'Bewitched', 'Hogan's Heroes', 'Top Cat' (can you name them all? I can!) - but our favourite was the show about Custer and the 7th.

I was fascinated by 'Crazy Horse' - and still am. This name was taken when I joined CC - so I ...

I don't need you to understand me - that's your problem!

Just accept that humour can be different in different parts of the world.

It's called 'irony' or 'tongue-in-cheek humour' (sorry 'humor')

I just wanted to high-light:

how sad it is that this individual found this so important that it was ...

A Possible Tactic?

Well, it could have worked. I may try this approach as a tactic.

'Hey, I just conquered the whole of Asia, Africa, Akron (Ohio), Intercourse (Pennsylvania) and Big Log (Arkansas) but the site gliched and transferred all my armies to another game - placing them on Vita-Louise in a 'Harvey-World ...

Thank you

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to explain.

Of course, one notes the unusual and one cannot rule out the effect of partisan-ship. English people constantly complain about referee's decisions 'robbing' us of important victories in the World and European cups - but conveniently forget our ...

Point of Order

I didn't say I didn't appreciate that there is an element of chance (and I have owned the board game for over 30 years) - I only wished to point out that a random number produced by script is entirely different to one produced by tipping the die from your own hand.

This opinion is based on info ...

A Word re the Dice

I think that the dice are equally fair or unfair to all.

However, I recently threw three ones in a row - and then 'threw' the same again the next roll - the chances of this are 46,656 to 1.

In a recent game, the defender, with one army, threw six 'sixes' in a row - a similar chance against this ...

Everything you wanted to know about RT but were afraid to..

Excuse my ignorance but, as someone who stumbled into an 'RT game' without realising, how do you know it is such a game before you enter?

If this is a silly question, I am sorry but I really do not know.

Destroy them.
Take all they have.
Hear the lamentations of their women
Carry their scalp on your saddle as a warning to others :x
