Hi Norm,

Just had a look at your blog - the construction seems so simple and straight forward and yet the final result is really effective - great job!

Hi Dane,

I can honestly and sincerely report that following that fateful encounter my die rolling has certainly reverted back to normal as everyone who witnessed my abysmal performance at the club on Tuesday evening will surely testify!

This constitutes the entire move for those stands involved in the close assault move despite the fact that they have only m...
