Well, here we are, again.
    Con season is over (for me, at least) and my work is finally starting to normalize a bit.
     I will be putting up some pics from GenCon soon and will let you all know how to find them.  I got pics of all the players that showed up except David :(    I don't know how I missed him.  I also have pics of Mark's really cool new setups for all of you that missed them.

      After the problems last turn with the virtual 'bots firing on people, I've decided to start changing the colour of the 'bot depending on it's status.
     Up and running will still be obnoxious green.
     Virtual will be blue.
     Shut down 'bots will be fuchsia.

    On to the turn...

 

     This was a relatively easy one to do.  What with 1 more 'bot dropping out (Trundle), 3 'bots asleep (TBWNN, Simon, & Griffon), and 3 'bots dying in Register 1 (naaaah, that would be telling...read on, McDuff).

 

SETUP
     Trundle doesn't send in programming, again and implodes.
     AS400, Khaffest, and Red Siren are random (one more random turn for AS400 or Khaffest and they are out).
     Khaffest comes back facing...oh, why not west...and let's take away his high power laser.
     TBWNN, Simon, and Griffon are sleeping this one off.
