Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I give up. Really I do. I surrender. If you say that
FT is
simple and SG isn't then we'll have to leave it at that. I read thru the
SG
Rules twice during a week and weekend and then started playing. I did
the
same thing with FT.

OK, I fibbed, I almost give up. Sorry, I'm sure your argument in a
previous
post was that Bring'n'Battle was just turning up and playing with what
you
had. What you described in the paragraph above is a preplanned game. Not
Bring'n'Battle by your earlier definition. I get the impression you are
back
to the Points value argument.
Now I really really, REALLY give up.
