Excellent review.  I gifted this game to a fellow grogheader a while back, and now I am (slightly) regretting it!  What I find most interesting (about the game and review) is that when I first looked at the game, I admit to being overwhelmed by all the numbers on the counters.  My gut instinct told me "Oh no! This will be worse than ASL!"  After reading the review, I see it definitely isn't as onerous.  Just goes to show you the value of good, insightful review.  Well done.
Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over.
