The chap who was teaching me how to play Napoleonics, never gave me a chance. Scarred me for life did that, but I joined a club and the guys there were much more gentle with me.Geminianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461339174700258390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783118874383089969.post-70532741825483739342012-05-18T19:33:50.136+01:002012-05-18T19:33:50.136+01:00Thanks Michael!
