I'm a bit confused. Ralph thinks the US is concerned about crossdressers?

Oh, and Jeeves for the Dawghouse.

It takes a certain set of thick to get Dragon Rampant rules wrong. They are simple to the point of being frustratingly so. 'Hi, I was wondering what the rule was for this' can be solved by reading the rules.

But, perhaps Bruce Boyd, instead of Osprey as a whole, might be more amenable to going to TWW rather than anywhere else? Especially considering there's already been a discussion on TWW about his rules, and I suspect the blog Mr Boyd might be referring to is actually from one of your regulars?

I certainly meant nothing derogatory about TWW, or you Mike!

TBF his rules are a bit...eccentric. They are supposed to be one unit = a division, but concern themselves with organising the unit's elements in tactical formations. A division in square is a bit boggling.

There's an attempt to rationalise it as the whole of the division's regiments forming square, which is still a stretch.

Picton "Division will form square"
Chambers "He's fucking lost it"

I expect he'll catch some flak for that.
