Default Don\'t play Dom3 after 2 martinis.....

Seriously.....I go to move armies only to find I've already moved them. It's rather confusing. Futhermore, I posted on one thread while thinking I was posting on another....thankfully, the post I placed applied to both.

Gin is the devil, and I am a gracious sinner...

I find that two ciders has a similar effect. I plan to have two glasses of wine tonight in the hopes of avoiding this problem...

Well hot damn. We should start a "PBEM strategy gaming and hard cider appreciation" club.

I too love Cider, although it is hard to find good ones in the US. At least in Texas. We don't grow apple trees down here.

I myself find it hard to do turns correctly after a bottle of Tequila. I usually wait until the next night.

This calls for: SCIENCE!

If two martinis cause a problem, will one? What about three? Not to mention four? Does the type of wine matter? The amount? The shape of the glass? How about brandy, or cognac? Does the age of the fluid affect the outcome? How about the age of the subject? Does it matter which nation you play? Are certain nations more or less affected than others? How about pretenders?

There's a lot of open questions, so this calls for some serious experimentation.

Hahaha. Oh god, we're going to need a lot of booze to run a thorough sample on that one.

I move that the first meeting of the PSB&HCA club have dues of $30 to go towards the purchase of a keg of fine cider. A wise purchase which we will not fully realize until we have drunk all said cider, and see how much money we saved by buying in bulk!

I find that, like with darts, two pints of Guiness improves Dominions play. After that, it's all downhill.

I'm totally willing to play a dominions drinking game. Maybe you take a shot every time barbarians attack?

All right, but then everyone has to play turmoil/misfortune.
