Wearable computers exist. Lobot has one around his head and Darth Vader probably has a computer running his suit. I don't know about computers with viewscreens and whatnot, but there must be somewhere in the galaxy.... If not, then they definitely do have the technology for it.
I don't think three spaces is too much. If we want to set up a better defense, then we can do so during the game. Right now, each square in front of the king is defended by two pieces (including the king) at the start, so it should be fine.
We seem to have a pattern going here: we've played version 4, 8, and now 12. :)
I'll make the first move: Gs-22
Sorry, I guess you're just going to have to get glasses. ;)
I'm too lazy to repost them all, so here's the link to the Flickr page they're on:

Click on the photos, click on them again, and if you still can't read it, right click and select the size you want to view them in, all the way up to 2048p. If that doesn't do it, then you need to see an optometrist. Maybe I'll repost them when I have nothing to do, but right now that is not the case.
I had no luck with VirtualBox. At least it was already installed, but the silly scanner software wouldn't install. But I finally took pictures today (I rushed them so they're aren't perfect) and here they are:
There are four colours (one for each player): silver, gold, white, and black. The pieces are set up in each of the four corners, like this:
i had food shaped like an aminal 1ce. it was pandcakes and it was grate
R we allowed too use propper grammar and speling now tack cuz i think frink n donimic want 2? thx

Were there any attempted terrorist attacks that made the news? I only know of one that didn't (make it to the news, that is)...
u used good gramar fink! ur asposed to use bad gramar plus bad selling to lol
butt i agree with ur point cuz its true lol
no uffence tack
That sounds promising.
ur welcum
this looks 2 me more like a bad speling thred then a bad grammer thred so y is it called da bad grammmer thred cuz it is also 4 bad speling lol
?
Regarding the T/C being a T/S, I agree. That gives the promoted value a greater ability to retreat than the demoted value, which is what we were going for anyway.
Fair enough. We'll call it a draw and move on. I'm not keeping the board, so if you change your mind for some crazy reason, then too bad. ;)
WRONG THREAD!!!
I can think of something earlier (I'm pretty sure it's earlier anyway) but I can't remember the name of the movie...
I've made three new versions, as well as changing the board length for one of the versions. I didn't add/remove pieces, but I might do that before I send you a copy, which I'll do once I hear back from you about the board-length, gap size, etc.
Do you have a minimum/maximum number of spaces you want between opposing sides? How about the minimum/maximum length of the board? I don't want to shrink it too much or leave too large of a gap between the two sides, so I want to know what size gap/board-length you want.
I get:
Error code: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE
when I ask to see more details.
I figured I would throw an idea your way to see if you liked it at all before I went through with it. How about putting the T/C behind the king, instead of in front? The T/C would be at the end of the board with the king immediately in front of it and two or three squares between it and the next piece. Having the king forward gives it more ability to defend itself and putting the T/C behind it prevents an opponent from dropping a piece on that square (with another piece defending that end square so the king can't move backwards and take it). Alternatively, however, you may want to move the king forward without putting the T/C behind it since that would be more conducive to paratroop offenses against the king.

I'm almost tempted to end our current game and give this a chance, but I still need to work out the setup.
"Almost tempted" you said.... Well is it "almost" or are we done? :D I'm perfectly happy with continuing for now, if you want to. And if you don't, then that's OK too.
Welcome to the forum!
And if English isn't your first language, then you've got better grammar than many who grew up speaking English!

I didn't know Eric Roberts existed until tonight. Now that I know, his resemblance to himself is unmistakable.
Wow, that is a fantastic collection, Bullitt! And a bunch of rare and carded figures too. If you ever decide to sell them, you'll probably be able to make a lot of money. Not that I'd ever want to sell a collection like that if I had it...
