Who'd like to try a chess variant? Now playing Xiang Qi, a.k.a. Chinese chess
Time

Sounds like a plan.

The Nutty Knights were cooler than I expected.  I enjoy the uniqueness of the knight move, and to have it so available was kind of fun.  You may want to try it out some time.

The Remarkable Rookies seem interesting.  They look a little challenging considering the lack of diagonal moves, because as you probably know, orthogonal moves are more easily hemmed in by a full board of pawns.  But some of them jump, so it shouldn't be too bad I suppose.

I'd prefer the Remarkable Rookies, and either against the Nutty Knights or the Colorbound Clobberers.  I kind of want to try out all the "standard" armies before trying one like the Mashers, which hasn't been playtested as well as the CCs, NNs, RRs, or FFs.  But you know, you may prefer a different combination than I suggested.  Why don't you pick the teams this time, as well as color and who plays what team? :)

AWK wants to completely ignore the decision and pretend everything is still the same. The rest of the people there seem to have pretty good suggestions. I like the idea of having two different tabs for every article.

 Hey, have you heard of AdamWanKenobi?  He's a weirdo who once polluted this site, before my time.  I've read about him though, and he's pretty gross.  So his opinion doesn't matter anyway.

Ok, that's a silly ad hominem argument, and I understand it isn't valid.  I'm just playing.  It's just funny to see him again!  I do agree that different tabs makes sense.
