True, equal sides can not be determined for the new game. That is why we
like to play 12 kingdoms vs our opponents' 13.  We prefer to be the
underdog.  We have learned the hard way that Neutrals are not always what
they seem.  It is common practice for certain teams out there to try and
plant friends into neutral positions, thus truly destroying sportsmanship
and the game balance.  After having this happen to us, we decided to divy
up the neutrals before hand, so everyone knows who's who.  Nothing is
worse than wasting big dollars on phone calls to neutrals, just to
discover later they're laughing behind your back because they already knew
the other side and were just trying to get info out of you.  I must say
GSI does a GREAT job on trying to weed out these planted neutrals, and I
hope just punishment is dealt to the offending team also.  SO if anyone is
interesting in fielding 13 players against my team of 12 in a great game
of ME-PBM, circa 2950 e-mail me at:
