@Imperious:
What?
Use actual money to represent IPCS

Agent Orange is a good trader, despite some minor setbacks (such as his miniatures being in New Mexico!!) :-o The miniatures arrived securely and on time for my big 1500 point tournament last Saturday. Two thumbs up for Agent Orange! :wink:
LOL
@Imperious:
Why do that? Are you saying people get to keep the money and just save it and go home, or the game is now a gambling concept, where the money you finish with allows players to keep?
We used to use coins for IPC since they were durable and nobody would steal dimes and quarters.
Just buy HBG currency, its better than OOB paper money
Gambling.
Oh wait I wasn’t paying attention, don’t know why I just did that.
Sorry about that, anyways I don’t really see anyway to win anyways, I surrender, good game.
Sigh, useless navy.

@Dylan:
The UK was formally the world’s either major or lone “superpower”, but soon the US took over that roll. Which included the US gaining military dominance, currency/economic dominance, global influence, etc. When and how did this begin to happen?
Long time since I encountered you Dylan… This seems like an essay question that you are trying to get an answer for. :roll:
Nah, just curious. I was looking at this book I got and I noticed that Britain acted a lot like the US does today.
This is a question which Paul Kennedy addressed in his book “The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers: Economic Change and Military Conflict From 1500 to 2000”. A summary can be found here:

Interesting how the “first edition” cover shows Japan following the US, guess that never happened.
