I feel semi-sorry for pes, as everyone just expects him to do everything for everyone, as if being the trianular pope of a small internet fake oppressive religion based on triangles and complex geometry isn't enough of a challenge/boredom he has to do all this crap.

I'd like to suggest a new rule: "No forum battle signups can be posted without the turn 0 Overwatch."

Admittedly, I've broken this rule myself. However, it seems to me that nowadays there are a lot of battles which are introduced, then get forgotten because the player "never got around to" building the field and armies, or wrestling with his overly complex camera to get good pics. Showing the turn 0 Overwatch, and thereby proving that you've already done these things, shows potential players you're serious enough about going through with the battle, and also eliminates annoying time-lags between signup and actual play.

No need to get booty bothered. You just need to learn the proper respect for rules and then you'll be much happier.

each side has 5 troops standing on a 32x32 baseplate, they are standing 3 studs away from the sides and are randomly placed along the edge, player one gets first go.
all of player 1's troops move forward 4" and fire on player 2's troop (roll dice) player 1 kills all of player 2's troops.
heck yer, but more complex battle fields would take a long time.

I'll need to remember that one. Also, we don't normally require you use the correct PC'isms here so fat assed chubby fucker would have been adequate. :D
