Let me look at a book I have here. I think we have rules

I actually don't really like games.

We can always play using the "Jutland" rules.

There's 100 scenarios out there...

Oh NO!!  I probably cannot play this Saturday night (MILs Birthday).  Therefore you bastards cannot play Jutland without me. 

Here at ACD, we all pee the same color.

Yep, not kidding now.

Prepare to Fletcher Pratt.

No broken backs.
No bruised knees.

Just toy ships and as many morons as we can pack into a virtual space range estimating at dreadnoughts somewhere near Argentina.

This is very tempting.

I've played them, but never umpired.

Mirth might well have.

Doug might own an autographed copy.

But ALL are welcome.

Fixed it!

Thanks.

Given these rules, struggling with math is a bit of a problem.

I've played FP several times. I have an old copy of the rules kicking around. I know they have been updated somewhat recently.

Just FYI, I'll be running it straight out of the Curry edition which is a re-format of the original but contains no amendments save Don Feathersone's (which I will not be using).

Your experience in this would be most welcome.

I remember saying "BOOM" a lot and hoping my father had taught me enough about distances to make me undangerous.

I'll see if I can track down my rules. I can't 100% commit to Saturday night, but I would like to play if possible.
