Kinda like how Indy and I balanced out for so long, though I'm
not sure what's happening in the Maryland/New Jersey area now
that I'm off in Shanghai. ^_- Of course, I think the Teske
Field started wandering off a while back, when I didn't exercise
it quite so much... so there's likely not too much of a problem.
Heck, Indy's even hit with P-torps every now and then, from
what I hear! He even rolled higher than a '1' for damage! ^_-

PS -- one of the shortest FT games I played was an introductory
scenario to try and get a friend into the game -- one CL each,
and we decided to use simultaneous fire. Both of us ended up
getting enough rerolls on our first salvo to destroy the other
person's ship. *That* was kinda freaky....
