Keith,
 You seem to have some built up frustrations.(-: I know how you feel.
What ever happened to a solid good guys versus the bad guys and neutrals
playing the field? I enjoy a good fight as well as good deployment of
'resources' to remove threats, but I do dislike having to watch my own
back to allies. It's part of the game, I know...but really! I kinda miss
my 1st game where 9 other friends said "Hey Rick, what to learn a new
war-game. Here you can be the Fire King in our team." I guess I'll start
looking to start a grudge game sometime.
