Beautiful game. I was at Expo in Chicago when this game was the tourney game and just being introduced. I guess that would have been Expo 97 I think? Anyway, my boss at the time and I played a three player game with John P. as we listened to him talk about the design and ideas he had and such. What a great memory that is for me long before all the rest of the stuff that happened happened (if you follow me). GLWTS bump.
