We started a "feature" game using my suggestion that a | |||
player could not put two starting locations on the same row | |||

In keeping with the profession of the mini-games from | |||
ancient on, the concensus [consensus] (Phil, Joel, Wally) is that the | |||
feature game should be in the indefinite future, [illegible word crossed out] | |||
but not space oriented. We agreed that the best names | |||

As one of the games they want to put out for the next | |||
Spring is a collection of 6 games from various civiliza- | |||
tions. Phil had some ideas from <u>Bell's</u> books including | |||
<u>NINE MEN'S MORRIS</u> and <u>TABLUT</u> and <u>HASAMI SHOGI</u> and <u>SEEGA</u>. | |||
I suggested <u>FANORONA</u> and one of the American Indian race | |||
games. | |||
They want me to write the rules booklet with some histori- | |||

ties about half the usual. | |||
