Guilty as charged - of all my variants, SAS needs the most work. It
was one of my very first stabs at variant design, that rolled off the
press back around 2000-2001.
On the other hand, my masterpiece is recruiting for players right now!
The latest revision of Sengoku (version 6.0, with the DP system) is
on the DC website. (Compare that to SAS, which never made it past
version 1.1)

to see how it felt, the people of Ascunsion were not impressed.
Anyway to answer the question yes I have played on a real board, even though
it was only once. In my defense though it was at the World Boardgaming
Championships. I've never played the PC game though--too modern for me (I
still listen to my vinyl)
I've met a few people in college which put them at the same age as me, but
I"m sure a few are still in high school.

be nice Mike - Scott is one of my regular variant groupies (though
he's not a fan of Balkans1860). So no pissing him off
If you like, I can send you a list of people who turn their nose up at
my variants, and you can be mean to them all day long. Such people
deserve abuse.

I believe Bruce Ray is the oldest player in dc, if not the world.
We dont track or ask for birthdate upon signup, tho it might be
interesting
to. Might be too personal. Also kinda fun to find out what age of ppl
you're working w as you get to know them and not have that all disclosed
up
front.

I can remember back to when Greg (in this game) was telling me he'd just
finished high school and was going into Brown Univ...
That was a few years back tho.
