Ok i was reading a tiny little booklet on Axis and Allies (available at Amazon.com for about ten bucks) about alternate rules to make Axis and Allies more realistic. One of them was an indepdent China with its own player that moved during the USA's turn. I think its kinda cool, what about everyone else? Any thoughts?

Not sure what you're thinking, but what word do you believe Sir Henry has incorrect?

"I do not think that word means what you think it does."
Inigo to Vicini in "The Princess Bride" after Vicini said "Inconceiveable!" for the umpteenth time.
One of my favorite quotes from the movie.

I can quote that movie (and many others) for hours on end.
Sad? Yes. But it is fun!
The scary part is when I quote Star Wars to my junior high and high school students and they have no clue as to what I am talking about. *Sigh* What is the world coming to?

| I think it would be boring or a short game to play China in that. Dont they have only two territories or something? I forget, I only player A&A: Europe now, I like it better than the standard.

Our Grandparents can say the same about us, so it comes out in the wash. Remember the REAL roller skates? How about Cassette tapes?

I never said I got all of my quotes correct every time, just that I could quote for hours on end. 
I do try to make sure that I am quoting properly, though, so when I find out that I had a line wrong, I make a mental note to fix it in the future. Thanks for the assist on this one.
