Alex: I never said that you were the author of the optional rules. Why would you make that assumption? I also never said that you personally were the one to instigate the recent changes to the WDS game engines, although you obviously support them because you think they make the games more "realistic...

Re: Kudos to WDS

I don't personally agree with your sentiments Stan, although I fully support your right to have them. I think WDS is making a tragic mistake with the recent changes to their games across the board.
